Lash length for you

Lash lengths are considered the game-changer in the false lash industry. They can elevate or relegate your whole appearance. Whether lash extensions or ready-to-use- false lashes, they have four basic lengths

Short                        6mm to 8mm               natural and recommended for inner corners  

Medium                    9mm to 12mm              close to natural, like a mascara look            

Long                        13mm to 14mm             add noticeable length

Extra Long                15mm to above             very long dramatic, glamorous look

One length of lashes can have different effects on different sizes and shapes of eyes. So you have to be careful while choosing a length for you.

Suitable lengths for eye shapes

1.      As a general rule, big, wide, protruding eyes flaunt with shorter lengths. Inward, small eyes need an extra enhancement so longer lengths are best for them.
2.      The second most important rule is not to go 2mm to 3mm longer than your natural lashes. This is the safest length to avoid any damage to the natural eyelashes.

Suitable lengths for eye shapes are:

•        Hooded eyes         

Since the eyelid is not prominent and visible, to open up the eyes select lashes with shorter lengths. Long lengths can make them look small. For an additional depth, opt for lashes slightly longer in the center.

•        Almond Eyes

This is the most blessed shape. You can play around with several lengths, short, long mixed. And any style of lashes.

•        Up-turned eyes

Like almond eyes, they have the liberty to choose from various styles. Lashes that gradually lengthen towards the outer corners with a little upward flick can highlight the grace of these eyes.

•        Down-turned eyes

Down-turned eyes need an emphasis on the outer corners. To uplift outer edges longer lengths are added to the outer edges.

•        Deep-set eyes

These eyes are set deep under the eyebrows. Long, curled lashes can pop up such eyes

•        Monolid eyes

Monolid eyes have no crease, short length; wispy, crisscrossed lashes can make them look fuller and prominent. Longer lengths will create a weighed-down look.

•        Round eyes

For these big, prominent eyes choose a pair of lashes with longer outer corners. They will create a seductive winged look.

Factors that affect while choosing lengths

How healthy your lashes are

Falsies or extensions are going to stress natural lashes. The length of fake lashes depends on the health of your natural lashes. Thin, sparse, or light lashes cannot bear the weight and stress of long lashes. So if you have unhealthy or light lashes try to choose a moderate length for you.

What you prefer

•        You want full drama, glamour; long lengths will suit you best.
•        Natural, subtle looks require medium or short lengths.

•        Affect natural growth

•        Can touch your glasses

If you wear glasses, too long lashes can cause problems. They will touch your glass creating discomfort for you. It can further ruin the shape of lashes.

•        Ruin your eye shape

Lashes are meant to look beautiful and enhance eyes. Wrong selection of lengths can ruin your eye shape and resultantly your overall look too.

•        Can create a puffy eye look

If your eyes are naturally puffy or protruded. Wrong lengths can make them look even puffier.
