A method of compensating for a refractive error, including manipulating eyelashes to project into a line of sight of an eye at least when an eyelid from which the eyelashes extend is partially closed or when the eye is moved relative to the eyelid. The method may further include manipulating at least one of spacing, orientation, direction, contour or shape of the eyelashes to create an optical effect that improves visual acuity when the eyelashes project into the line of sight and training an individual whose eyelashes are manipulated to position the eyelid from which the eyelashes extend, the eye or both the eyelid and the eye from which the eyelashes extend to achieve relative positioning of the eye and the eyelid to obtain the optical effect that improves visual acuity when desired.

A hair iron includes a first elongated bar and a second elongated bar. The first elongated bar includes a first iron portion, a first fulcrum portion and a first grip portion, wherein the first iron portion includes a first heating pad where hair is to be ironed, and the first iron portion and the first grip portion are connected to and disposed at opposite sides of the first fulcrum portion. The second elongated bar engages with and is pivotally rotatable relative to the first elongated bar, and includes a second iron portion, a second fulcrum portion and a second grip portion, wherein the second iron portion includes a second heating pad that cooperates with the first heating pad to iron hair, and the second iron portion and the second grip portion are connected to and disposed at opposite sides of the second fulcrum portion. A first bending angle exists between the first iron portion and the first fulcrum portion, and a second bending angle exists between the second iron portion and the second fulcrum portion.

An applicator for applying magnetic eyelashes is provided. The applicator includes a first leg with a first proximal end and a first distal end; a second leg with a second proximal and a second distal end; a first holder provided at the first distal end and including a first side; and a second holder provided at the second distal end and including a second side facing the first side. The first leg and the second leg are pivotally attached to each other so that the applicator is able to switch between an open state where the first side and the second side are spaced and a close state where the first side and the second side are contacted with each other; and the first side and second side are curved.

An eyelash shaping implement includes: a curved main body; a tool engagement element; and a set of shaping elements arranged along a surface of the curved main body. An eyelash curler insert includes: a body; and multiple shaping elements protruding from the body. An eyelash shaper tool includes: a movable section; a fixed section; and a shaping implement having: a body coupled to the movable section; and at least one shaping element protruding from the body. Shaping elements include spherical protuberances, undulating linear protuberances, and tapered surfaces.

An eyelash curling device includes a mechanical eyelash curler and a carrier strip. The mechanical eyelash curler includes a first portion and a second portion configured to move relative to one another. The first portion includes an upper jaw. The second portion includes a lower jaw. The movement of the first and second portions relative to one another causes the upper and lower jaws to move from a first position in which the upper and lower jaws are located at a distance from one another and a second position in which the upper and lower jaws are in contact with one another. The carrier strip is coupled to at least one of the upper and lower jaws. The carrier strip includes at least one active agent therein on thereon. The at least one active agent is configured to aid in retaining a curl in eyelashes when it contacts the eyelashes.

Cosmetic treatment method for adding fibers to natural eyelashes, comprising: a) applying an adhesive composition (A) to at least part of the eyelashes, b) bringing fibers (12) borne by an applicator (10) into contact with said adhesive composition (A) present on said eyelashes, c) moving the applicator (10) away from the eyelashes, so as to release fibers (12) which adhere to said eyelashes.

A false eyelash conversion system and an applicator for use with an eyelash extension system are disclosed.
