Down turned eyes and the best lashes for you

Sexy, downturned eyes were once a staple in old Hollywood glamour. Some women love to play up the sultry shape of their downturned eyes. Others worry that the shape makes them look sleepy. Regardless of how you feel, there are a variety of false eyelash options and makeup options to d or relax the shape of downturned eyes to get the look you want!

Determining Down Turned Eyes

Need to know if you have down turned eyes? Look at your eyes head-on in a mirror, and take notice of the outer corners of your eyes (The corners closest to your ears and temples). Do the outer corners of your eyes sit lower on your face than the inner corners (The corners closest to your nose)? If so, your eyes are likely downturned!

Lashes for Down Turned Eyes

To get a vintage, Hollywood-glam look with false eyelashes, try lashes that are very soft, wispy, and natural looking. False eyelashes that are too heavy or full will only make your eye shape look even more downturned, resulting in a tired-looking appearance!

Would you rather give your eyes a little “lift”? Try Or-Lash-M. This is a low volume criss cross false eyelashes that are “spiky” with the longest hairs in the middle of the lash. While this style of lashes might seem wild, they actually provide a lifting effect to the entire eye and will give your eye shape an upturned appearance. They are also sure to make you look wide awake!

Makeup for Down Turned Eyes

Looking for a makeup style that will further lift your downturned eyes? Apply a mid-toned shadow to the outer corner of your eye in a “V”-like shape. Continue blending that shadow out into your crease. The secret to getting a natural-looking, lifted look is to highlight the correct areas of your eyes! Apply a light and shimmery highlighting shadow to your browbone and inner corner of your eye. Then, dab a final touch of highlighter right on the center of your eyelid!
