A woman from China has made the world record for the longest eyelash measuring 20.5 cm.
You Jianxia has held the Guinness World Record title for having the longest eyelashes since June 28, 2016.
Back in 2016, when the record was first made, You Jianxia's eyelashes measured 12.4 cm, on the upper eyelid of her left eye.
Speaking about growing her eyelashes, You was quoted by guinnessworldrecords.com as saying, "I first realised that my eyelashes were growing in 2015. They continue to grow slowly, becoming longer and longer. I did visit medical professionals to find out why my eyelashes are longer than other people's eyelashes. The doctor couldn't explain this, and he felt it was really amazing."
"I also tried to find scientific reasons such as genes or something else. However, none of my family have long eyelashes like me, so it can't be explained," she added.
Now, Jianxia's longest lash, located on the upper eyelid of her left eye, was officially measured at 8 inches, setting a new record.
