The shape of our eyes can influence the way that we style our eyelashes. It isn’t always easy to discover the styling choices that work best for you, but accentuating your features can help you determine the best way to style your eyes for the future. While you can follow tutorials and make a judgment call on the right eyelash styling for your needs, choosing what works best for you can be important. Here are some of the best ways to suit eyelash extensions to your eye shape:

Looking For a Crease

If you see a crease in your eye, you are not likely to have a monolid. A monolid shape means your eyelid does not have a crease. If you do have a crease, the corners of your eyes may fall below the line or above the line. If the corners are above the line, you have an upturned eye shape and if they fall below the line, you have a more downturned eye shape.

If you can see that you have a crease when you face the mirror straight on, you are likely to have an upturned or downturned eye. Each of these eye shapes has its own types of lashes that are well suited to the style of eye shape.

If you can’t see the crease when you face a mirror straight on, you have a hooded style eye which is suited to just a few types of eyes. If you can see the whites of your eyes around the iris when your eyes are resting, this is also an indication that you could have an almond-shaped eye.

Based on the type of eye that you have, you can choose lashes that are shorter along with the inner and outer corners if you have a monolid shaped eye, almond eye, or hooded style eye. This is a lash extension that is beneficial for freshening the face and opening up the eyes.

Longer lashes in the corner of the eyes and moving towards shorter lashes at the start of the eye leads to a shape that is better for around eye. This can mimic a winged liner and it is perfect for those with more oval eye shapes.

For a more natural eye shape, following along the lengths of lashes with the longest lashes in the arch is a subtle look that can suit every eye type. This can be a style that would suit you if you are seeking something fairly reserved or just longer lashes.

The staggered look is a bit more textural and this is a common extension type used by the Kardashians and other stars. The look is very dramatic and it is good for many eye shapes, but it can produce very dramatic results.
