Questions: 16 · 10 minutes
1. The gap between two eyes appears greater than the width of one eye. Which spacing description is commonly used?
Wide-set
Close-set
Deep-set
Upturned
2. In a straight-on, neutral view, the outer corner of each eye sits higher than the inner corner. What does this indicate?
A downturned tilt
An upturned tilt
A wide-set arrangement
A deep-set appearance
3. When the eyes are open normally, a person shows noticeable white both above and below the iris. Which contour term is the closest match?
Almond
Deep-set
Round
Upturned
4. A person looks up and raises their eyebrows for a photo, making more upper lid visible than usual. Why might this photo be unreliable for classifying hooding?
Hooding can only be judged from a side view
Expression and gaze direction can temporarily change how much lid is visible
Eyebrow movement permanently changes the eyelid crease
Upper-lid visibility is relevant only to eye spacing
5. Which description best matches the cosmetic term “almond-shaped eyes”?
The opening is elongated, with tapered inner and outer corners
The outer corner sits visibly higher than the inner corner
The upper-lid crease is mostly covered by skin
The space between the eyes exceeds one eye’s width
6. A makeup artist compares the inner and outer corners along an imaginary horizontal line. The outer corners sit lower. Which term applies?
Hooded
Round
Downturned
Close-set
7. Can one pair of eyes reasonably be described as both almond-shaped and upturned?
No; every eye can receive only one shape descriptor
Yes; almond describes contour, while upturned describes corner tilt
Only if the eyes also have no visible eyelid crease
Only when the distance between the eyes is greater than one eye width
8. One eye appears slightly more hooded than the other. What is the most accurate approach when applying cosmetic descriptors?
Ignore the difference because paired eyes are always identical in shape
Classify both eyes from whichever side has the more visible crease
Use spacing alone to decide which eye-shape term applies
Describe each eye’s visible features before choosing any overall label
9. An eye appears positioned farther back beneath the brow bone, which may create more shadow around the upper lid. Which descriptor is the closest match?
Downturned
Round
Monolid
Deep-set
10. Which set of observations is most useful when comparing common cosmetic eye-shape descriptors?
Iris color, eyelash color, and eyebrow thickness
Pupil size, tear production, and eyesight sharpness
Opening contour, crease visibility, corner tilt, spacing, and apparent depth
Skin tone, hair texture, and nose length
11. An eye appears to project forward relative to the surrounding brow and socket area. Which common cosmetic descriptor fits best?
Close-set
Prominent
Hooded
Almond
12. In a neutral front view, the iris nearly meets the upper and lower lids, with little white visible above or below it. The opening also tapers at the corners. Which contour is most likely?
Round
Wide-set
Almond
Upturned
13. The distance between the inner corners appears smaller than the width of one eye. Which term best describes this relationship?
Prominent
Hooded
Wide-set
Close-set
14. Which feature is most closely associated with the term “monolid”?
A sharply raised outer corner
An unusually large distance between the eyes
A crease that is visible but partly covered by overlying skin
Little or no visible upper-eyelid crease when the eyes are open
15. A person’s eyelid crease can be found when the skin is gently lifted, but it is largely hidden in a neutral, open-eye view. Which conclusion is best supported?
The eyes are more accurately described as hooded than as having no crease
The eyes must be deep-set because the upper lid is shadowed
The eyes must be monolids because the crease is hard to see
The eyes are round because the upper lid covers part of the crease
16. Someone has an upper-lid crease, but a fold of skin covers much of it when the eyes are open. Which descriptor fits best?
Hooded
Round
Prominent
Close-set
