in my personal experience everytime i use a curling mascara it uncurls my lashes. try this-use an eyelash curler, but heat it with a blowdryer. get it nice & hot then test it on your wrist so you don't burn your eyelid(trust me it hurts!) it'll definitley curl your lashes-then use Maybelline Full & Soft in your choice of color-but there's a trick to it. wipe the wand on a paper towel to remove all the globs of mascara, then apply working the bristles into the base of your lashes & out. too much mascara will take the curl right out. after that's dry they're pretty much set & should hold the curl, then you can apply a second coat if you like.
