Buying eyebrow tweezers in the UK: what to know locally
Much of southern and eastern England sits on chalk and limestone, which means hard tap water. Rinse a tweezer under a hard-water tap, leave it on the edge of a basin, and you'll see mineral spotting on the tips within days — the film is thin, but it sits exactly where the jaws need to meet.
In hard-water areas, dry the tips on a lint-free cloth rather than letting them air-dry, and wipe with isopropyl alcohol weekly. Surgical-grade stainless steel won't corrode, but limescale on the edge will still cost you grip.
