A BEAUTY fan has revealed her horror after ripping out her entire lash line after slipping while using a pair of eyelash curlers.
Merrick Bourgeois, who is from the US, took to TikTok and shared a video where she explained how she ripped out all of her eyelashes.
In the clip, she begins: "So, everyone who knows me knows I am a huge advocate for the eyelash curler. I keep one in my car, my purse, my makeup bag - the whole nine yards.
"So yesterday, I was curling my eyelashes like normal. I did the right eye, everything was fine, then I go to do my left eye and stop paying attention."
Demonstrating how she looked away, Merrick explains: "So I'm curling them like this not looking.
"Well, my hand slipped and when my hand slipped - gone! She gone, she dead!
"Waxed basically my entire eyelash colony off my eyelid - besides three or four."
The beauty fan continues: "Anyways, you can't really notice unless I do that but yeah it hurt pretty damn bad.

"I thought I got only one, two, maybe three out because it didn't hurt that bad but I definitely felt some of them disappear.
"And so I go to check the eyelash curler and I see my whole lash line stuck to it - hair follicles and everything.
"It did not miss a beat. It said 'I'm going with the eyelash curler today and man did it!'"
Merrick concludes the video by urging others: "Don't do what I did. Pay attention!
She captioned the post: "My eyelash story RIP."
In a second video, Merrick zooms into the eyelash curlers to reveal the damage - and as she explained, her entire lash line can be seen stuck to the device.
"I'm crying oh my god," she penned.
The video has since racked up a whopping 289,000 views and been flooded with comments online.
"That’s always everyone’s fear," wrote one.
A second vowed: "Never curling my lashes again."
A third noted: "BRUH I DIDN’T EVEN KNOW THIS WAS A POSSIBILITY."
Meanwhile, a fourth penned: "A lesson was learned today."
A further quipped: "I’m so sorry for your loss."
And one more social media user added: "My mouth dropped."
