“I say own the monolid,” says Quynh. “You can have so much fun because on top of that flat lid, you can place a really exaggerated, graphic liner. It doesn’t even have to be a wing, it can be more square or rectangular. Because it’s flat, it’s like having a smooth canvas.” 

Aside from a bold liner, you could also try “curling your lashes before mascara and applying it top and bottom. Fan out your lashes with the mascara wand by pushing the middle lashes straight up, inner lashes towards the nose and outer lashes out toward the hairline. I love to use Givenchy Volume Disturbia Mascara” says Mulleady.

The takeaway: Use the flat surface of your eyelid to your advantage by adding a bold, graphic eyeliner. And if you’re really feeling spicy, opt for a full strip lash.
