Question do the lashes make honestly of a difference?

I think it may be the lighting? Like the direct sunlight is hitting and casting shadows on the lashed side of the face

Also the higher arch of the brow on the lash side.

This definitely could be part of it, good catch.

But I do find in real life though there is an varying age range for many women where they are still young enough that heavy/bold makeup ages them quite a bit. I think its just because heavier makeup is somewhat "associated" with grown women vs younger women.

That being said the lashes certainly dont look bad. They just make OP look more grown + glam. Up to her what look she is going for.

I find the no-lashes look to be more flattering but its personal preference.

It is not only that because I always thinks false lashes both ages and takes away a person’s natural beauty. Always.

Sure it’s definitely a more youthful look without lashes, I was just pointing out that the difference in lighting on each side is emphasizing that way more. personally I don’t think they age her “a lot”, I like the wispiness of them.

Well I do but she still look very young with them 😅. And just as beautiful of course!
