The Problem: You have close-set eyes. You attempt a cat eye. The result? A muddy, cluttered mask that makes your features feel like they are packed together.

The Comparison:

• Traditional Cat Eye: Thick black band. Heavy, solid outer block. Outcome: Closes off the eye and emphasizes the narrow center.
• The this lash system Method: Ultra-fine transparent band. Hollow inner section. Spaced-out fiber spikes. Outcome: Lifts and elongates without visual clutter.

The Solution: The this lash system Wispy Cat Lash. Its unique construction leaves 'breathing room' between the eye and the lash, creating an illusion of space.

How to Place It for Maximum Elongation

Place the lash leaving a 1-2mm gap at the inner corner. Do NOT push it all the way in. Apply the outer spikes so they flare UPWARD. This creates a 'kitten flight' pattern that lifts the eye socket, rather than stretching it sideways.

Frequently Asked Questions

Will a cat eye make my close-set eyes look smaller?
Only if the band is thick and the fibers are solid. Our wispy fiber pattern prevents this.

What if I have a monolid AND close-set eyes?
Focus the length on the outer 2/3 of the eye. Skip the inner corner entirely for a clean elongated shape.

How do I avoid the 'mask effect'?
Choose a lash with a transparent band. Apply it slightly past your natural lash line on the outer edge.
