Eyelashes have evolved to be one third the width of the eye in length

Eye lashes may look good, but they're not the best thing for the health of your eyes.'
As part of the study the researchers measured 22 mammal species, from hedgehogs to giraffes.
They found the length of the lashes was always the same proportion: roughly one third of the width of the eye in length.

The improper attachment of fake lashes can damage the natural lashes. The extra pressure caused by the false lashes can also cause damage to the hair follicles, stopping eyelash growth temporarily or permanently.

The use of false lashes should only be limited to special occasions. It is also important to use only high quality false lashes from reputable companies and have it professionally attached.
