Since upturned eyes are naturally lifted (a look many women try to achieve with makeup!), you can easily wear shorter lash lengths—either uniform across the eye or slightly longer toward the outer corners. This lash map creates a polished, balanced look that’s perfect for daytime wear.
Best Lashes for Upturned Eyes: Top Styles to Accentuate and Balance Your Look
Upturned eyes have a naturally lifted and defined shape, making them one of the most sought-after eye types. Celebrities like Taylor Swift, Kendall Jenner, and Bella Hadid all have upturned eyes—and they often enhance their look with the perfect lash style.
What Are Upturned Eyes?
Upturned eyes have a slight natural lift at the outer corners, where the lower lash line angles upward to meet the upper lash line. This eye shape already gives a cat-eye effect, so the right lash style can either emphasize the lift or balance it for a softer appearance.
Stick to Wispy Lashes with Staggered Lengths
A wispy lash with varied lengths adds texture without overpowering the natural shape. Great for both everyday wear and more glam occasions.
