Chinese woman Yu Jianxia is recognized as the owner of the longest eyelashes in the world.

According to measurements taken in May 2021 by Guinness World Records experts, the average length of her eyelashes was 20 cm.

The longest eyelash was one on the upper eyelid of the left eye – its size was 20.5 cm.

These figures allowed the Chinese resident to beat the previous record for the length of her eyelashes, which she set in 2016.

At that time, Yu Jianxia's eyelashes were 12 cm long.

Yu said she noticed a steady growth in her eyelashes in 2015, with them gradually becoming longer and longer.

Doctors were unable to explain the reason for this peculiarity, and no similar anomalies had been observed in the woman’s family, which is why Yu assumed that it was a gift from Buddha.

According to the record holder, she does not use mascara or eyeliner, because her eyes already look impressive.
