What is the recommended lash technique for a square-shaped face?

  1. Shorter outer lashes

  2. Longer central lashes

  3. Gradation from short to long

  4. Longer inner corner lashes

The correct answer is: Gradation from short to long

For a square-shaped face, the recommended lash technique involves creating a gradual transition from short to long lashes. This approach helps to soften the angular features typically associated with square faces. By starting with shorter lashes at the outer corners and gradually increasing the length towards the center, the eyes are opened up and framed in a way that balances the strong jawline and broad forehead. This technique brings an appealing softness and enhances the overall harmony of the face, making it appear more oval. The other techniques do not achieve this same balance and harmony. Shorter outer lashes may emphasize the squareness of the face, while longer central lashes can draw attention to the strong features rather than softening them. Likewise, longer inner corner lashes can create a look that is more suited to a different face shape and may not effectively complement a square face's characteristics.
