Why are long eyelashes beautiful?

• Long eyelashes accentuate the eyes and create an attractive, inviting look.
• They make the eyes appear larger, which radiates innocence, youth, and trustworthiness.
• Long, full eyelashes are seen as a sign of health and (subconscious) fertility.
• With long eyelashes, you need less makeup to achieve a radiant and well-groomed appearance.
• People with long eyelashes receive compliments more often, which boosts their self-confidence and self-image.

One of the main reasons is that long eyelashes greatly help accentuate the eyes.

Eyelashes provide a natural rim around the eyes and help create a look that is both attractive and inviting. The eyes are the place people look at most when they trust or are close to someone; after all, they are the center of your face.

Eyelashes also help protect the eyes from dirt, dust, and other contaminants.

Second, long lashes make your eyes look bigger.

This is especially useful if you have smaller eyes and would like to make them look bigger. Women with larger eyes are seen as younger and attractive by men. Studies suggest this is because big eyes evoke innocence and trustworthiness.

Long lashes can also create an optical illusion that makes your eyes look deeper. This creates a powerful but attractive look in the eyes.

Third, long eyelashes are a sign of health. Eyelashes grow just like other hairs on our bodies, and someone who is healthy will have hairs that grow faster and fuller than someone who is not. This means that when your eyelashes are long and full, it is a sign that your body is healthy and capable of producing healthy hairs.

Many conditions, specifically autoimmune conditions affect eyelashes. Women and men who have beautiful full eyelashes are therefore also considered fertile in many cultures (consciously and unconsciously). This is also not very surprising, since many autoimmune diseases are also bad for your fertility.

Fourth, long eyelashes can make you look more beautiful in an instant. They are considered one of the seven beauties for nothing. When you have long eyelashes, the effect of a mascara will also be many times more intense for that wow effect. As a result, you need to apply minimal makeup to still look radiant.

Finally, long eyelashes can boost your self-confidence. Long eyelashes are instantly noticeable and men and women who have them receive continuous compliments on them. Naturally, this makes people more confident and gives them a positive self-image.
