In the images I look at, the fold arches up higher above the upper eye lashes.
Probably due to surgery. "Double eyelid" surgery is as popular among Japanese models, actresses, etc., as boob jobs are in Hollywood. While some Japanese women do naturally have "double eyelids," most do not. Often, you do not see any fold at all, or a fold just on the inner half of the eye, the eyelid is so small.
This surgery has been popular since the '50s. While it's true it was inspired by American ideals of beauty, it is not turning Asian eyes into Caucasian eyes. The results do not look remotely Caucasian, and some Japanese women do naturally have "double eyelids."
I would like to see a profile or 3/4 view, to better see what the eyelid looks like.
And I agree about the nose being off. IMO, it's the part that most needs adjusting. The bridge is too broad. This is disguised a bit by the overly long eyebrows. I think most women have brows that start at roughly the inner corner of the eye; if not, they pluck them. If the brows began at the inner corner, you would see clearly that the eyes are too far apart. And the reason for this is the bridge of the nose is too broad. While Asian noses do tend to be broad at the tip, they narrow (as well as flatten) at the bridge.
BTW, I do like the brows a lot, aside from the length. Nice, natural, dark brows. :) Message edited on: 12/23/2005 19:47
