hooded eyes

Heavy-lidded, mysterious look

Hooded eyes have a fold of skin that partially covers the crease of the eyelid, making the movable lid less visible when the eye is open.

The term appears in beauty and makeup contexts, where hooded eyes require specific techniques: Hooded eyes can make eyeshadow disappear when you open your eyes.

The feature is natural and common, becoming more pronounced with age as skin loses elasticity.
