Shape

Start with where the longest lashes sit, then look at curl and fullness.

What to notice

Where the longest lashes sit along the same eye. Doll-eye and open-eye overlap around a centre peak.

These drawings explain a term. They are not anyone’s work or results.

Cat Eye Lashes: Length concentrated at the outer corners for a lifted, elongated eye.
Doll Eye Lashes: Length centred over the middle of the eye for a wide-open doll effect.
Open Eye Lashes: Curl and length mapped to open and round the eye.
Squirrel Lashes: A lash shape with the longest visible lengths around the outer iris or brow arch, shortening towards the outer corner.

Lash map reference: London Lash’s map comparisons. The maps compare where length sits. Curl labels vary by brand.
