Excellent... With mascara
I have very straight eye lashes that point downward. I tried the curler without mascara and could not get a curl. With mascara, a different story; a very nice curl and a lot easier than a traditional curler. No accidentally pinching the skin... I have almond shaped eyes, and it's much easier to  get into the corners of the eyes... The little light, not sure what it's for exactly, and sometimes it doesn't light up. No biggie, I just feel the end with my finger to see if it's warm.
