It's no surprise that many women are willing to go above and beyond when it comes to beauty.
為了美，女人們總會不惜一切代價，這也不足為奇。

But in some cases, going the extra mile in the beauty department can be risky business.
但有些時候，在美這個方面的過分追求可能是一件危險的事情。

A controversial video has recently emerged showing a woman curling her 'stubby' eyelashes using just a wooden stick and fire.
最近有這樣一個備受爭議的視頻，視頻中一位女性居然用小木棍和打火機來卷自己短粗的睫毛。

'This is a quick tutorial on how to curl hard to curl eyelashes such as mine - I have pretty stubby curl-resistant eye lashes and they usually droop,' YouTuber t0inky, said in her video.
優客“t0inky”在視頻里說道：“這是一個快速教程，教你如何把像我這樣的睫毛變得又翹又長——我的睫毛很粗硬又容易塌。”

'This method actually does work.'
“這個方法很管用。”

The young beauty vlogger then proceeded to heat up a wooden rod with a lighter before placing it on her mascara-clad eyelashes to curl them.
然后這位年輕的美容視頻博主先是用打火機加熱一個木棍，然后把木棍放在自己已經刷了睫毛膏的睫毛上，開始卷起來。

'I would be really careful with this because it is wood and you will be using a lighter,' she said.
“我會非常小心，因為這是木頭的，用打火機點了容易著。”

'If you have clumpy eye lashes, the heat from the stick does take that away...this lasts all day long and before they wouldn't.'
“如果你的睫毛特別厚而且易塌，那么這個小木棍就可以把你的睫毛燙得翹起來……這種彎曲狀態可以維持一整天。”

And while the technique worked well for her, her method isn't the only extreme and somewhat dangerous trend that people have tried out in the name of beauty.
這個方法對她很適用，不過這還不是最極端、最危險的：人們為了美，什么招兒都能使出來。
