Do cat-eye lashes work on monolids?

Yes. Choose a C curl, keep the extension at 2 mm, and make sure the band is flexible. The curl does the lifting; the length does the shaping.

Why do cat-eye lashes hurt my inner corner?

The lash is too long for your eye. Trim the outer end gradually, not the inner end, and test with the lash sitting at your natural lash line, not pressed upward.

How do I know my lash length?

Measure from the inner corner of your eye to the outer corner. Most Asian eye shapes fall between 8 and 12 mm. Choose a lash with a max length of 12 mm and work down.

WHY CAT-EYE LASHES LOOK DIFFERENT ON ASIAN EYES

I was like you but worse. I once bought the most popular cat-eye lashes on the internet, followed the tutorial to the word, and walked out looking like I had fought a losing battle with eyeliner. They were too long at the outer corner, they pointed up at a weird angle, and on my hooded lids they made my eyes look heavier. I felt like giving up on cat-eye forever.
