Mascara is applied generously to the bottom lashes, sometimes more heavily than the top. This creates a droopy, doll-like, slightly sad aesthetic that’s very popular in alt fashion.

It works especially well with:

  • Minimal upper eye makeup
  • Pale or matte skin
  • Soft contour

The heavy lower lash look feels emotional and artistic.

Pinterest users save this style for its dramatic eye emphasis.
