Short answer

Not by design, according to the brand. Real Techniques says it built the Miracle Eyelash Curler to give a gentle, pinch-free curl and a natural, lasting lash lift. It points to two features: a curved edge it says fits all eye shapes, and a soft rubber base it says curls lashes gently, for a look that won't hurt. These are the brand's own claims.
