Eye Shape & Choosing the Perfect Lashes

What Is Your Eye Shape & What Lash Style Should You Choose?

The right set of lashes can take your look from drab to fab in just a few minutes! However, choosing the perfect lash can be tricky, especially when given so many options. At Crème de la Crème, we offer lash styles that can add length, volume and drama, but which one should you choose? Your preferences and personal style will help play a part but so does your eye shape! Here is a simple guide to help you with the process.

Deep-Set Eyes

Since this eye shape generally sits under a prominent brow bone, we recommend choosing lashes that focus on length. By adding length, will allow your eyes to appear less deep-set and more open. We generally suggest avoiding lashes that are shorter and denser, as they can have the opposite effect. Our favourite lash styles for deep-set eyes are Naturally Fake, Deux Die For and Bougie.

Round Eyes

Long, curly, wispy? Take your pick! If you have rund eyes, delicate simple lashes will enhance your daytime look! Take your look into the evening by swapping out your wispy lashes for some voluminous cat eyelashes. These lashes start with a shorter inner corner and flare out to a longer outer corner, this will elongate your eyes and vamp up your look. Our top picks are Faux Sure They’re Real and Wink Wink.

Almond Eyes

Most lash styles will compliment almond eyes, so your personal preference will be a major player when it comes to picking your lashes. If you have a late-night and want to appear a little more bright-eyed, try out a pair that’s shorter on both the outer corner and inner corner while being longer in the center, like Boudoir. When you’re ready to paint the town red again, add in some volume and drama with a more voluminous eyelash like Unfauxgettable!

Hooded Eyes

If you have hooded eyes, most of your mobile lid space will not be visible when your eyes are open. Sometimes leading to the appearance of smaller eyes, but don’t fret, we’ve got the perfect lashes for you! We suggest popping on a pair of longer lashes that have a slightly more dramatic curl, such as Spoiled or Feelin’ Myself. Similar to your deep-set eye sisters, avoid lashes that are short and dense and you’ll be Feelin’ yourself in no time!

Mono Lid Eyes

If you lack a fold on your lids, that probably means you do not have an eyelid crease. Mono lid eyes are extremely beautiful and very prevalent in a large majority of east and central Asians.  The correct and proper fitting pair of lashes can make the world of difference by accentuating your eye shape and even changing the shape of your eyes.

When it comes to mono lid eyes, a medium length lash with a nice deep curl is your best friend! Opting for lashes with a nice deep curl will ensure that the strip eyelash is visible and noticeable to widen, elongate eyes. Our favourite go-to strip eyelash to beautify mono lid eyes are Fauxbidden Fruit, Vixen and Heartbreaker.
