(おくぶたえ)

おくぶたえ
noun
inner double eyelid; hidden-crease eyelid
1. inner double eyelid; hidden-crease eyelid
An eyelid whose double fold is partly hidden by the skin above it, so the crease is faint or concealed near the inner edge — falling between a clear 二重(ふたえ) (double eyelid) and a 一重(ひとえ) (single eyelid).
(わたし)奥二重(おくぶたえ)だ。
I have inner double eyelids.
奥二重(おくぶたえ)はメイクで印象(いんしょう)()わりやすい。
Inner double eyelids change impression easily with makeup.
彼女(かのじょ)奥二重(おくぶたえ)で、()()じると一重(ひとえ)のように()える。
She has inner double eyelids, and when she closes her eyes they look single.

An eyelid whose fold is present but partly tucked under the brow-side skin, so the crease barely shows. It sits between a clear 二重(ふたえ) (double eyelid) and a 一重(ひとえ) (single eyelid), and is a very common feature and a frequent topic in beauty and makeup contexts.

COMMON COLLOCATIONS:
