what makes my eyes look bigger?

Answer 1

Well I know this one because I am a makeup artist and this is one of the many questions that I get. Remember the eyes are the main focus on a womans face. Especially doing eye contact.

One could argue that the eyes are the most important feature of the face, since we tend to look at them the most. To make them stand out, follow the tips below:

Steps:

1. Use eyeliner only on the outer rim of the eyelids, not the inner rim.

2. Blend eyeliner with a cotton swab rather than leaving it as a harsh line.

3. Avoid drawing eyeliner on the inner corner of the lower lid; instead, start the line at the beginning of eyelash growth or even closer to the middle of the eye.

4. Use a light shade of eye shadow on the upper lid leading up to the brow, which will open up the eye. A darker color can be used in the fold of the eye.

5. Consider wearing false eyelashes to give your eyes a more wide-eyed, innocent look. Be sure to use natural-looking eyelashes.

6. Curl your eyelashes with an eyelash curler before applying mascara to give you the same effect as false eyelashes.

7. Try a black mascara if brown does not bring out your eyes enough.

Tips:

Chill your eye pencils before you sharpen them. They'll be less likely to break.

Try getting a makeover the next time you're at a cosmetic counter. Ask the person who does your makeover to help you emphasize your eyes.

Lining your eyes all the way around will make them look smaller, not bigger.

The Brighter the Better! By adding a small amount of shimmer to the bottom outer corner of your eyes, you can make them look wider!

Hope that helps.

Forget the white liner, My eyes are naturally small, (thanks to my dad lol) and I make them look huge by applying a eyeshadow on both my top lid and under (it looks like i smuged some black on the bottom) I do 1/2 my lid(inner corners) with a light sandy color then I apply a glittery black or dark brown to the outter corners, I line it with black, try a elongating mascara(Few coats, try dream lash or w/e by Maybelline), then to top it all off liquid liner 'tails' Like where you extend just the ends out egyptian style, except blend the darker eyeshadow in so it looks more natural not just a boring line lol.
