Eyelash Extension Placement for Deep-Set Eyes

Deep-set eyes, with their prominent brow bones and recessed appearance, require strategic lash placement to brighten and open the eye area. A lash map becomes your secret tool for designing a flattering, lifting effect.

1. Map for Balance: Short at the Inner Corner, Longer at the Outer

Start with shorter lashes (8-10mm) at the inner corner to avoid crowding the eye, gradually increasing length to 12-14mm at the outer third. This triangular shape pulls focus outward, countering the shadowed look of deep-set eyes. Individual lash products excel here—each lash can be customized in length and curl to fit the natural eye contour, creating a seamless, eye-opening effect.

2. Curl & Angle for Lift

Choose a medium curl (C or D curl) to lift lashes away from the brow bone, reducing contact and enhancing visibility. Angle outer lashes slightly upward during application to create a “winged” effect, which visually raises the eye’s outer corner. Hybrid lashes, with their mix of dense and lightweight fibers, add volume without weighing down natural lashes, perfect for maintaining a lifted look.

3. Color & Texture for Softness

Opt for dark brown lashes instead of black to soften the contrast against deep-set eyes, which can appear harsh with stark black tones. Wispy styles, with their irregular lash lengths, add dimension and movement, preventing a “blocked” appearance that flatters the eye’s natural depth.

With a well-planned lash map and thoughtful product selection (think individual lash products for precision), deep-set eyes can be transformed into a focal point. Work with a technician experienced in contouring techniques to ensure every lash placement enhances—not overwhelms—your unique eye shape.
