Battery 13. cap 20. heating tube 21. hearing generation unit 22. brush 23. signal lamp Description of the Invent ion This invention relates an eyelash curler which lifts and lines up eyelashes easily during make up for forming a screw shaped projecting part (brush type) on a side of the heating generation tube connected to the heating tube, covering with screw motion the nichrome wire heating generation unit along with the surface of the screw shaped projecting part and curls the eyelashes.

Generally, an eyelash curler is formed as a tweezer or uses liquid and spread it over eyelashes. However a tweezer might pull out eyelashes and the liquid might make eyelashes stiffy and irritate eyes.

To solve these problems of general eyelash curlers, this present invention, heating a heating generation unit by a battery formed by nichrome wire through the screw shaped brush which is extended from the heating generation tube provides the following features Inside of main body 1, consisted with a handle 10 and a cap 13, a battery is connected the heating tube 20 with the switch on the surface, on the upper side of the heating tube 20, the signal lamp 23 is placed, and the heating generation unit 21 through the screw shaped brush 22 with the screw motion the heating generation unit is covered and number 14 in Figure 2 is a supporter.

The brush 22 can be made of either engineering plastic or fur. This invention is used for lifting eyelashes; as shown in Figure 2 after opening the cap 13 of the main body 1, the switch 11 is operated by placing the supporter 14 on the hand, and the electric power is recognized and the signal lamp 23 of the upper side of the heating tube 20 is on; the upper surface of the heating tube 20 is on: the nichrome wire heating generation unit supplies electric; the heating generation unit is heated and the designated temperature is transferred to the brush which lifts the eyelashes promptly by using the heat and the eyelashes are lined up naturally.

It is recommended that the nichrome wire is 7-10cm length and 0.1-0.3 thickness of the nichrome wire are used as a heating generation unit but not restricted.

After the switch 11 is on, within 4-10 minutes, the eyelash curler of this present invention is heated at a temperature between 65-7 OOC giving the proper curling condition without burning the eyelashes and the temperature is maintained. For that purpose, 1.5 Volt alkaline battery is used as a source of power.

Further, by forming the brush 22 on the outer surface of the heating tube 20, the heating generation unit 21 does not contact the skin directly; it is easy to apply because it is portable, small and requires only one battery. Therefore, it can be used whenever and wherever in case of need.

As mentioned above, this present invention curls the eyelashes easily and naturally by forming the hearing generation unit through the brush using the battery.
