Eyelash curler replacement cycle

How long do you use an eyelash curler once you buy it?

Regarding rubber gasket replacement standards, it is recommended to replace them around 3 months if used frequently, and 6 months if used occasionally.

Around that time, I feel the body of the eyelash curler itself loosening and the clamping power weakening, so I end up buying a new one.

Are the eyelash curlers on the market designed for right-handed people? Maybe I can't use a curler for long because I'm left-handed...

I think I usually buy a new eyelash curler after about 4 to 5 months. I use an Etude eyelash curler.

What about others? Even if it gets loose, do you just replace the rubber gasket and keep using it?
