Price aside, this curler works as well as my favorite Tarte curler. There's nothing particularly innovative here ... in fact, it's pretty utilitarian. Likewise, I'm dubious about its selling point ("gimmick?") of lash conditioning with blue chamomile. Like other reviewers, I tried to locate replacement pads here, and could find none. Then I checked on Georgie's website, none there either. Since this aspect is what draws the attention of the consumer, it seems sage to offer a three-pack of replacement pads for a premium ... why not? It saves consumers from tossing/wasting a perfectly good device (I wipe mine down with alcohol about one every two weeks) and allows Georgie to capitalize on their claims. As in, "these pads are so great, you'll want to pick up extra!"

As it stands, with no replacement parts to be found and it's perfectly average performance, I would say this is a solid three-star product. It's okay ... but there are cheaper, equally as effective curlers out there.
