Five Hacks to Finding the Perfect Lashes for Your Eye Shape

eyesight careThere are six predominant eye shapes: almond, round, hooded, upturned, downturned, and monolid. While there are many attractive false eyelash styles to choose from, not all of them will suit your eye shape. Your eye shape determines which false lashes will create a flattering effect. Therefore, do not be over-reliant on the latest trends and follow video tutorials slavishly if they do not cater to your eye shape.

Here is a closer look at the different eye shapes and how to choose suitable lashes for them:

A closer examination of eye shape

You cannot begin your quest to find the perfect false lashes without determining your eye shape and what suits it. Armed with that knowledge, you will know how to choose fake lashes for every eye shape from Lilac St., Vavalash, or Trish McEvoy. Lilac St. lash extensions are easy to use and adaptable. Unlike strip lashes, you can use Lilac St. extensions in various combinations to create the perfect look for your eye shape. These lash products come in different lengths and styles, and their reusability ensures that wearers get the most out of them. Each set of extensions can be worn for 3-5 days on multiple occasions if cared for correctly.

Understanding your eye shape and how to use false lashes to compliment it will give you picture-perfect lashes. However, be prepared for some experimentation and a few less-than-successful attempts while you get used to applying fake lashes, as this requires a good deal of practice.

Length

Not every eye shape can accommodate long lashes. For example, hooded eyes will look droopier if your false lashes are too long. It further accentuates the prominent brow bone and makes your eyelid appear even smaller. Additionally, people with hooded eyes will need to curl their lashes upward to make the eye appear more open. Long lashes will rub against the eyelid if that happens, making them uncomfortable to wear and increasing the chances of smudging eyeshadow or mascara.

Some eye shapes require lashes to be shorter at the inner eyelid corner, becoming longer as they extend to the outer edge. The monolid eye shape and round eyes would be perfect examples. Other eye shapes, such as upturned eyes, need lashes to be longer in the center of the lash line.

Volume

Dense lash sets do not compliment every eye shape. They could make the upper eyelid appear droopy, making the user look tired or sleepy. Similarly, too much volume does not work for round eyes, making them seem smaller. Heavier lash sets are ideal for almond-shaped, upturned, or downturned eyes. They create a dramatic, layered look that draws attention to the eyes.

In most cases, opt for wispier, natural-looking lashes for day-to-day use. They are ideal for any setting, such as work or a more casual environment. If you want to add a little something extra to make them pop, some water-based mascara will add the necessary volume.

Attachment type

Most lashes are applied using a special adhesive. The challenge for users is learning how much glue to apply. When they use too little, their lashes peel off, but too much adhesive leaves a prominent line that anyone can spot a mile away. It takes patience and practice to master the art of using just the right amount of lash adhesive.

Magnetic lashes do not require any adhesive. Instead, they stick onto your natural lash line using magnets. While some proponents of these lashes say they last a lot longer, others disagree, claiming that they come off at inopportune times.

Strips vs. extensions

Working with strip lashes can be a tricky business. You must apply the entire strip in one go. Keeping your hand steady and putting them across your lash line can be challenging, especially when the glue starts drying and you lose focus. Users also need to measure strip lashes to ensure they are not too long or too short for their eyelid shape and length.

Individual lash extensions are much more convenient as you apply them one at a time and can take breaks between affixing them. Working in smaller sections reduces the chance of a skew line. Additionally, you can use different styles and lengths to create a combination that suits your eye shape.
