I just got braces and I thought I could take the attention away from my mouth by drawing attention 2 my eyes. How could I apply my eye makeup 2 do that?

OK, you want to bring attention to your eyes and away from your braces. You should get some mascara and eyeliner, i think in, black or brown, depending on how dramatic you would like it to be. curl your top lashes and apply mascara one coat at a time and do another when it dries , wait for the second to dry and the go to you bottom lashes and take a freshly sharpened eye pencil ( for a thin line) or a dull one ( for thicker one) and apply it only to the out half of your bottom lid, you can also use eyeliner on your top lid, but i think it looks better with it just on the bottom as long as you put enough on the top. Get eye shadow that isn't too dramatic, and that looks nice with your skin tone and personality, if you like pink get a light pink and put it under the crease of you eyelid and get a slightly darker pink and put it on the top, if you want the look that it is spreading across your eye. Or depending on your age, just the light pink on the bottom. use a night/day creme that reduces puffiness and dark circles, and get enough sleep to reduce bags from creating underneath your eyes, you would get attention to them with the dark under eye bags, but not the good type. Good luck!!!

A little bit of well-placed eye makeup should do the trick. I have tried the eye trios by Almay that Mrs. F suggested and they are wonderful. Really easy to use, and perfectly blended for one another. I love my eyes, so whenever I put on makeup I always try to pull them out the most. I usually start with a bold color on my lids and then a slightly more subtle version of that color blended up towards the brow bone. I think its Maybelline that makes the new XXL Extreme Mascara. I would recommend that, gives you more volume and length. After mascara I apply a strip of black eye liner under my lids (the thickness depends on the occassion for work its usually thinner than going to the club). That usually does it! Also make sure you pluck those eyebrows. Having a nice line above your eye is going to pull the attention towards your eye a lot better than a unibrow! Good luck, and don't stress about the braces it just gives you a little originality in your look!

You can use dark mascara, dark eyeliner, and a dark shadow on your lower lid and a complimentary lighter shadow on the upper lid.

Many people have to wear braces and you shouldn't feel embarrassed that you do too. Also, I'm not sure if you noticed this yet but your lips while you have braces look noticeably fuller.

Get the allmay eyeshadow and eyeliner for your hair color. They have it at walmart and a chart to help you decide what to get. I'm blonde so I use a small eye brush to put the brown in the crease of my eyelid and a regular applicator for the rest. If you find a small brush you can use the brown in the makeup for eyeliner.

MASCARA! Mascara brings out eyes and makes them look a lot bigger. First, curl your lashes. Apply a volumnizing mascara - waterproof so it doesn't come of easily. You can use a little bit of eyeliner, but using it under your eye makes your eyes look smaller so be careful! Wear bright shadows and make sure your eyebrows are groomed - eyebrows play a major part in bringing out eyes. Good luck!

Try applying eyeliner to the out side rim of your eyes... But don't over do it...

Then add mascara to the outer lashes to widen the length and barely any on the rest of them.

Add eye shadow that will accentuate your eye color....

I hope this helps... And also go neutral colors on your lips...
That is what helped me when I had them....... ♥

Try lining your eyes with eyeliner on the insides of your eyes. Alittle diffcult at first, but you get used to it. Don't use liquid eyeliner. Only the stick kind. It really does work.

Don't wear lip gloss (i know that might be hard) an use thick eye liner and a natural tone eyeshadow so it brigns out natural beauty and shimmer to your eyes

Try a gold shadow with Black mascara and use a mascara primer before you apply mascara to thicken lashes.
