LASH APPLICATION TIPS FOR WIDE-SET EYES
ARE YOUR EYES WIDE-SET?
Stand in front of a mirror. Look at the space between your eyes. If it’s wider than the width of one eye, you have wide-set eyes. It’s a beautiful feature—it gives you an open, dreamy look. But it can also make standard lash placement feel off.
WHAT LASH STYLES FLATTER WIDE-SET EYES?
The goal is to bring the eye inward visually. So you want lashes that are longest in the center, not the outer corner. A cat-eye flare will pull your eyes even further apart. Instead, look for a 'round' or 'center-flare' style.
- Center-flare lashes add height in the middle, making the eyes appear closer together.
- Natural tapered lashes blend in with your own lash line.
- Avoid heavy outer-corner lashes unless you want to exaggerate the space.
HOW TO APPLY LASHES FOR WIDE-SET EYES
- Place the lash strip slightly inward of your natural lash line—about 1 to 2 millimeters.
- Press the center down first, then the inner corner.
- Use a thin line of liner to blend the inner edge so it looks like the lash starts where your eye starts.
WIDE-SET EYE FAQ
WHAT IS CONSIDERED WIDE-SET EYES?
If the distance between your eyes is more than one eye width, you’re wide-set. It’s a common feature, not a flaw.
DO WIDE-SET EYES LOOK BETTER WITH LASHES OR EXTENSIONS?
Lashes give you flexibility. Extensions are great, but they’re expensive and hard to adjust. A strip lash lets you play with placement.
CAN I WEAR WINGED EYELINER WITH WIDE-SET EYES?
You can, but keep the wing shorter and lift it slightly. Pair it with center-flare lashes to balance the look.
WHAT TO LOOK FOR IN A LASH FOR WIDE-SET EYES
You need a strip that emphasizes the center and tapers at both ends. The band should be flexible enough to let you shift it inward without lifting. And the lash should be lightweight, so it doesn’t pull the eye down.
