How to Know if You Have Deep Set Eyes 

Deep set eyes are larger and deeper set into the eye socket, creating the illusion of a more prominent brow bone. Your eyes might also appear more shadowed because of the positioning they have in the eye socket.

Some famous faces with deep set eyes include: Kim Kardashian, Sandra Bullock, Nicole Kidman, Kandee Johnson and Jessica Chastain.

Pros and Cons of Deep Set Eyes

The Pros

1. Known for having a sultry and mysterious look. We say take full advantage of this trait and lean into the allure! 
2. Deep Set eyes can pull off long lashes incredibly well. There is more distance and depth to your eyes and long lashes can help bring the attention to the forefront. 
3. People dream of having a pronounced crease like this! You won’t need much contouring on your eyes. 

The Cons

1. Your prominent brow bone may cast a dark shadow on your eyes. Concealer and a light shimmer shadow can help brighten the lid and inner corners of your eyes. 
2. It takes more eyeshadow to be seen on your lid. Extend the color past your crease so it doesn’t get swallowed by your eye socket. 
3. Deep set eyes tend to appear sunken in. Lashes and mascara can make all the difference. 

Lashes for Deep Set Eyes

Because the eyes sit further back in the socket, you want to make sure that lashes have enough volume to be seen, but not too much to where it touches your brows. A wispy or medium density lash will look best on the deep set eye shape.
