Last birthday, my friend Amy took 47 photos at her dinner party. The lights were warm, the cake was gorgeous, and her eyes were... invisible. Her lashes disappeared in every single shot. She wasn't wearing a bad formula. She had on strips that looked fine in the mirror but just didn't show up on camera.

Why do my lashes not show in photos?

Because they're too uniform in length or too sparse. Phone cameras flatten contrast, so you need lash layers that create texture and depth.

What lash shape is best for selfies?

A cat-eye shape with longer outer corners elongates the eye and gives a subtle Photoshop "lift" in selfies.

How do I keep lashes looking fresh all night?

Use a flexible, lightweight band. It will follow your eye movement instead of pulling away, and it won't fold or droop.
