How irresponsible of you to show model Carmen Kass separating her eyelashes with, of all things, a safety pin [“Best of Beauty,” October]. Let’s hope none of your readers display such a, so to speak, glaring lack of common sense.

Thanks for all the awesome tips! I particularly enjoyed the tip about poking my eyes out with a safety pin. At first I was like “Maybe I shouldn’t,” but then I did, and it’s definitely given me a new perspective. As in, no perspective, because now I am blind. Kudos!
