Monolid eyes and double lid eyes are two different types of eyelids. Monolids are upper eyelids that don’t have the natural arc-shaped crease between the eyelashes and the eyebrow that’s found in double eyelids. Double eyelids have a visible crease or fold of skin where the eye meets the eye socket. Here are some details about monolid eyes and double lid eyes:

Monolid Eyes

• Decrease the opening between the upper and lower lids, giving the eyes a smaller appearance.
• Sometimes called Asian eyelids, but not all people of Asian descent have monolid eyes.
• Eyelid anatomy varies among different Asian populations.
• Monolid eyes and hooded eyes are different conditions.
• Monolids are typically a facial feature of East Asian people.
• Makeup techniques can be used to highlight monolid eyes.
• Cosmetic surgery can be done to create a double eyelid that gives the eyes greater visibility and expressiveness, while remaining natural-looking for an Asian face.

Double Lid Eyes

• Tend to look heavier than monolids.
• Have a visible crease or fold of skin where the eye meets the eye socket.
• Have some lid space to work with.
• Use a dark shade to define the crease of your eye and add depth to your look.
• Applying a primer and then lightly dabbing your lids with setting powder can help keep your shadow from creasing.
• Cosmetic companies and fashion magazines are taking notice of double lid eyes.
