I have blue eyes, blond hair and glasses. I can't wear contacts because they irritate my eyes too much. Is there any way I can wear eye make up without looking ridiculous?

Dark eyeliner and light eye shadow

I used to have glasses and I learned this eyeliner trick from a friend who also wore glasses and it looked really good. I also have blue eyes. What you do is: pull your bottom eyelid down a little so you can see the little line of skin behind your bottom eyelashes. I know it seems like this would irritate your eyes but it doesn't. Take some black (preferably) eyeliner and basically color in the little line. From corner to corner or, to start out, half your eye to the outside corner. It looks really cool and not like you have a whole lot of makeup on. Then maybe add a little mascara and some beige or tan eyeshadow to make your eyes pop a little more. It works I promise, I know from experience. Hope this helps!

Before I got contacts and wore glasses, my eye make-up was almost invisible underneath my glasses unless I put so much on that I looked cheap. I think it really depends on what color your glasses are to what extend you should wear eye make-up. I'm very sorry that you cant wear contacts but just keep your head up and try out different looks with your glasses

Avoid lenghtening mascaras, they tend to make your eyelashes hit your lenses. You can wear pretty much any color you want. I have worn glasses for many years and have not found that they magnify my eyes at all. If anything, they allow me to wear much more bold colors and eyeliner looks. Just experiment, it's half the fun of wearing eye makeup!

i exploit Erase or another concealer for the circles lower than your eyes. How about a coloration of red eye shadow then eyeliner then mascara. A matte end powder, a touch bit blush and a sparkling lipstick with a touch shine.

Just remember when you are putting your makeup on that your eyes are going to be magnafied due to your glasses, tone down the colours you wear, and don't go to heavy on mascara and eyeliner as they are magnified when you have your specs on.
Good luck!

You should be happy because people who wear glasses can play up their eye make-up even more!

I just wear eye shadow. Stay away from mascara because if your eyelashes touch your glasses lens your glasses will get dirty.

If you're short-sighted, your eyes look smaller under the glasses so you should put light colours on your eyes and they will look bigger. If you're far-sighted, your eyes look bigger under the glasses so you should make them smaller and you can do that by using dark eyeshadows.

i wear heavy eyemakeup as it is, and if my eyes were going to be covered by glasses, i'd probably lay it on even thicker. blue eyes look good with contrasting colors, i'd go with browns or blacks, lots of eyeliner and mascara. ;]]]
