A pair of false lashes can open up our eyes and make them look bigger immediately. But not all the lashes will suit you. You must choose a specific type of lashes according to your face cut and eye structure.
While lashes might make you look better, they only sometimes make your eyes look better if the fit and style are right. Hence, it is confusing to choose the right pair.
Lashes for hooded or small eyes
Hooded eyes mean that the fold of the eyelid hides some of your lids when your eyes are open, making not all of the lids visible. The goal with hooded and small eyes is to open up the eye as much as possible.
Dramatic, long, and thick lashes can often look too heavy and can make your eyes look smaller. Instead, choose lashes that are shorter and more natural-looking. Lashes slightly longer in the centre can also help to create an illusion of depth in the eyes.
Remember to trim your lashes according to your preferred length. Otherwise, the pair will not sit comfortably on the eyes. It is better to cut from the outer corner, which is often the longest.
Lashes for round eyes
Those who have large round eyes can see white around their iris. Wispy lashes with more drama towards the outer corner create a cat-eye shape, while curled options add even more.
Lashes for deep-set eyes
If your eyes sit slightly further under your brow bone, you can add all the drama with your lashes. A long, curled pair of lashes will open your eyes and enhance their size. Be sure to curl them to help open up the eye gently.
False lashes for almond eyes
You won't see any white above or below your iris for almond-shaped eyes. You can get away with almost any lash you want to. You can get the perfect look with voluminous lashes that are evenly distributed all way along the band.
Lashes for monolid eyes
Monolid means to create a crease on your eyelid, which is common among Asian ethnicities. You can have fluttery lashes with crisscross layers that open up the eye or shorter and less dramatic lashes. The best way is to curl the lashes once they are applied.
Once you have found the perfect lash pair for your eyes, you need to make sure that you trim them to fit your eyes properly. The length of the false lash band is always long to accommodate everyone, but most people need to trim off some excess portion to fit the lashes perfectly.
