Hooded eyes have a fold of upper lid skin that sits in front of your lash line, so any fibre shorter than that fold disappears behind it. The trick is to check a lash's shortest length, not its longest. Everything here is chosen to stay visible when your eye is open.
Chief lash expert Shirley's top two picks: Lucinda and Pocahontas.
Hooding is loose upper lid skin that folds down over the mobile lid. It does not move your lash line, it sits in front of it, which is why a lash that looks beautiful in the case can vanish the moment your eye opens. You have not bought a lash that is too subtle. You have bought one that is behind a curtain. So read the minimum length in the lash stats, not the maximum.
Do magnetic lashes work on hooded eyes? Yes. The lash sits on your lash line exactly as it always has. The only thing that changes is which lengths stay visible once the fold sits in front of them.
Why did my last pair look like nothing? The fibres were most likely shorter than the depth of your hood. A 5mm to 13mm lash on a deeper hood reads as a short lash with a flick on the end, because everything below 9mm is hidden.
Which style is easiest to start with? A graduated lash that builds length from the centre outwards, on a thin band. If you are new to false lashes, take the lash quiz and it will match you in about a minute.
