Understanding Downturned Eyes

Downturned eyes are characterized by the outer corners of the eyes slanting downward. While this eye shape gives a soft, sultry look, many women with downturned eyes prefer to enhance their eyes and make them look more open and lifted. The right lashes can create that perfect effect, giving your eyes a more uplifted and balanced appearance. Choose the wrong styles though, and you can create the opposite effect making the eyes appear more downturned than what they actually are.

 

What to Look for in Lashes for Downturned Eyes

When selecting lashes for downturned eyes, the goal is to lift and open the eyes. Look for lashes that are Flared or tapered wispy styles that give the outer corners of the eyes a natural lift.

Application Techniques for Downturned Eyes

Now that we know what to wear, let’s talk about how to wear them! When applying lashes to downturned eyes, focus on the outer corners to elongate the eye. You can use eyeliner to create a soft wing and make sure to blend the lashes well with your natural lash line. I recommend using a 2-in-1 black eyeliner adhesive pen to simplify the application process and make it as seamless as possible.  Use eyeliner to create a soft winged look and make sure to blend your lashes well with your natural lash line.  For more application and beauty tips, be sure to browse all my free resources here.
