Lash Mapping for Upturned Eyes

Every eyelash extension map drawn for upturned eyes — all five effects in all three techniques. The shape decides what the map has to correct; the effect and technique decide how.

An upturned eye already lifts at the outer corner, so a map that lifts further exaggerates rather than balances. Lash mapping for upturned eyes usually means giving the inner half something to hold, so the line reads as a curve rather than a ramp. This is the shape where a cat-eye is most likely to be asked for and least likely to help.

The fifteen maps below are the five effects in all three techniques, drawn for this shape. Each states the zone order, the length curve and where it gets away from people — for a working lash tech mid-appointment and for a learner still building a reference.

The outer corner already lifts; the inner needs balancing.
