Lash Guide
Wearing false eyelashes opens up your eyes making them look bigger and fuller. So, where do you start? Do you know your eye shape? Do you know which styles best complement your eye shape?
These are just suggestions. You know your style best, if there is a lash style you want to try that is not listed in the recommendations, go ahead and try something new!
Monolid Eyes
Eyes without a crease or indentation above the eyelids.
Recommendations for Monolid Eyes
Lucky you – monolids are an open canvas! We suggest medium-length lashes that are tapered to accentuate and soften your eyes without overpowering this beautiful feature. Get the drama you’re looking for with a lighter, crisscross design.
Downturned Eyes
If you placed a straight line across the center of your eyes, would the outer corners by your temples be above or below the line, or right on it?
If your answer is below the line, you have downturned eyes.
Downturned Recommendations
Downturned eyes are that captivating, vintage-esque shape. False eyelashes that are too dense and heavy will only highlight the downturn, so stick with lashes that are wispy and natural-looking.
Round Eyes
When you look straight ahead at the mirror, can you see the whites of your eyes below the iris (the colored part)?
If you answered yes, your eye shape is rounded.
Recommendations for Round Eyes
Round eyes have an amazing dimension! Enhance this depth further by opting for wispy, long, tapered (longer on the ends), and dramatic false eyelashes that fan outwards.
Deep-Set Eyes
If your eyes sit slightly further back under your brow bone, your eyes appear larger and are set deeper in the socket which creates the illusion of a more prominent brow bone.
Recommendations for Deep-Set Eyes
Deep-set eyes, you’re lucky because you can add all the drama with your lashes. A long, curled pair of lashes will open up your eyes and enhance their size. Be sure to gently curl them to help open up the eye.
Wide-Set Eyes
If the space between your eyes is wider than one eye width, you have wide-set eyes.
Recommendations for Wide-Set Eyes
To highlight your eye shape, focus on accentuating the outer corners to lift and lengthen your eyes. The lash styles you want to select to achieve this length and lift are styles with longer lash lengths from center to end.
Upturned Eyes
If you placed a straight line across the center of your eyes, would the outer corners by your temples be above or below the line, or right on it?
If you answered above the line, you have upturned eyes.
Recommendations for Upturned Eyes
Upturned eyes are another incredibly versatile eye shape since they are very similar to almond eyes but with an upward lift at the outermost corner. Lashes that gradually increase in length towards the outer edges, in a classic winged shape, will best emphasize this upward flick.
Hooded Eyes
When your eyes are open, is your eyelid crease visible?
If it is not visible, then your eye shape is hooded.
Recommendations for Hooded Eyes
The goal with hooded eyes and small eyes is to open up the eye as much as possible. Frame your eyes by selecting a pair of double tapered lashes with short and long strands that feature the longest lashes right above your pupil. Lashes that are slightly longer in the center can also help to create an illusion of depth.
Almond Eyes
If you placed a straight line across the center of your eyes, would the outer corners by your temples be above or below the line, or right on it?
You have almond-shaped eyes if your outer eye corners are right on the imaginary line,
Recommendations for Almond Eyes
Almond eyes are the most universal shape and are blessed with versatility – a wide variety of false eyelashes will work for you. Just about any lash style will look great on you. You don’t have any restriction in terms of depth or length it’s basically your choice to do what you want. You can play up any lash style with double tapered lashes that are wispy or clustered being the most flattering.
Close-Set Eyes
If the space between your eyes is smaller than the width of one eye, they are close-set.
Recommendations for Close-Set Eyes
Select lashes that are tapered (longer on the ends) to create the illusion of elongation. Opt for flared lashes with the longest hairs concentrated at the outer corners.
