When you wear a mask, the first thing people see is your bright eyes. Everyone's natural eye shape and size are different, so makeup techniques can help refine and enhance them, including eyeliner, eye makeup combinations, mascara application, creating single or double eyelid looks, and eyelash extensions. But doing makeup every day takes a lot of time, and the amount of cosmetics you use adds up quickly. So in this article we share some tips for getting peach blossom eyes without surgery, which can save you at least a year's worth of cosmetics.
8 Common Eye Shapes and Celebrity Examples
Ruifeng (Slender Phoenix) Eyes: Fan Bingbing
This classic eye shape is usually long and narrow, with the eyelid covering roughly the upper third of the pupil, so the eyes look lively and commanding overall and also give an alluring impression. If you naturally have ruifeng eyes, you can build on your natural shape with eyeliner and lashes. Even without eye makeup, people will notice your eyes first, and they give an energetic impression!
Peach Blossom Eyes: Yang Mi
View this post on InstagramView this post on InstagramMen and women alike are captivated by Yang Mi. Besides her distinctive personal qualities, her eyes are a textbook example of “peach blossom eyes,” which are characterized by an elongated overall shape, naturally upturned outer corners, and a double eyelid, aegyo sal (the soft fullness under the lower lashes), and eye-corner curve that are all just right when smiling, so a little highlighter on the aegyo sal and some work on the upper and lower lashes is enough to bring out beautiful eyes perfectly! (Do not waste the advantage of aegyo sal!)
Many people also consider this eye type the most captivating, the kind that draws admirers and makes people popular, which is why it is called peach blossom eyes.
Danfeng (Upturned Phoenix) Eyes: Liu Yifei
View this post on InstagramView this post on InstagramDanfeng eyes are somewhat similar to ruifeng eyes, but the biggest difference is that danfeng eyes have an inner corner that points downward and an outer corner that points upward, so heavy makeup should be avoided. A little eyeliner and shading at the outer corners and the eye socket is enough! Overly heavy makeup makes the eyes look too close together.
Droopy (Puppy) Eyes: Park Bo-young
View this post on InstagramView this post on InstagramDroopy eyes are what people commonly call puppy eyes. They look innocent and approachable, the kind of look that makes you want to get to know the person, and puppy eyes are distinguished by outer corners that droop slightly, giving a younger, sweeter look. Most importantly, do not ruin your best feature with makeup. What droopy eyes should avoid most is “too much makeup,” which makes you look older. We suggest simple inner eyeliner and mascara, which can also help soften eyes that droop excessively by nature!
Upturned Eyes: Ahn So-hee
View this post on InstagramView this post on InstagramThese look like phoenix eyes, but the upward tilt is even more pronounced. When not smiling they look fierce and sharp, giving an overall impression of eyes that slant like an upside-down “eight”. For makeup, we suggest an upswept eyeliner and eyeshadow at the outer corners lightly blended upward. With the right touches, you can go from an “intimidating stranger” to a “high-fashion supermodel.”
Round Almond Eyes: Park Min-young

Narrow Slit Eyes: Zhou Dongyu

Although they are not the eye shape most people consider beautiful, they have plenty of character, giving an ethereal, gentle impression.
Crescent Eyes: Son Ye-jin
View this post on InstagramView this post on InstagramCrescent eyes, also known as smiling eyes, curve like two crescent moons when smiling and narrow into a line. The eyelids are mostly hidden double eyelids, which gives a sweet, endearing look, and when you smile you bring positive energy to the people around you. For makeup we suggest keeping it simple: just an earth-toned eyeshadow on the eye socket to add depth.
The Most Popular Eye Shape: Peach Blossom Eye Analysis and Key Points
Of the eight eye types above, the most envied and most popular is the “peach blossom eyes” represented by Yang Mi: innocent and charming, yet distinctive, so that people want to keep gazing at her eyes from the first glance.
The key elements of peach blossom eyes are: double eyelids, eye shape, tear troughs and eye bags, aegyo sal, and the skin around the eyes
Below we share tips from a no-surgery perspective. The simplest way to create a double eyelid is to learn to apply double eyelid tape. The look of a double eyelid comes across as energetic, easygoing, and approachable. As for eye shape, see the types described above, and peach blossom eyes have outer corners that lift slightly and a crescent-moon shape when smiling, so makeup can be used to refine the eye shape!
The next key points are tear troughs, aegyo sal, and dark circles, which are covered in detail in the next section. Last is the skin around the eyes. People who smile a lot most often develop crow's feet, which can even speed up aging of the skin around the eyes, and these problems can be improved with “Botox” and “eye-area radiofrequency” treatments.
In fact, all of the above are things people care about in daily life. Whether or not you want peach blossom eyes, you may run into makeup caking, looking older, and foundation that never goes on evenly, so anyone with these concerns can refer to these methods!
