Answer 1

shu uemura makeup is made for asian eyes, by a japanese person. i use it and it works very well. you should check it out.

http://www.shuuemura-usa.com/

try that.
and by the way, HAHA, one of my eyes has a crease and the other one doesn't! now i know it's called monolid. it sucks when you apply eye makeup, huh? at least, one of my eyes is GORGEOUS (the one with the crease) and the other one just looks out of place.

the "smokey black" asian eyes are really hot and in style.

What I do usually every morning [I'm Asian]
Is I first apply a TINY bit on concealer on each eye, and blend with a brush.

Then, I put some eyeshadow, usually a shade lighter than my skin, as a highlighter.
I brush this on my eyelid, up till my eyebrows.
It shouldn't be too noticeable, just a little accent.

Next, I put an eyeshadow color of whatever I feel like for the day.
Usually I put either purple, a smokey grey/black or pink.

Then I line my upper lid carefully with liquid eyeliner.
You can do this by taking some liquid eyeliner, brush a tiny bit on a kleenex so you don't have too much, and
slowly feathering it on your lid.
make sure to take your time and not rush, as a little movement or jerk could ruin it.
and don't line it too thinly, just enough.
This will take practice, and precision, as its a little hard to master fully.

Then, I put mascara on, I use the Loreal double extender mascara.
It has a clear mascara and dark one.
Use the clear one first, to lengthen your lashes a bit, as most asians are somewhatly cursed with small straight lashes.
Remember to slowly sweep up, from the base to the top, and wiggle the wand a little so its not clumped.

Then apply the dark mascara, same way.

Let it dry, and apply it to your bottom lashes as well.

now, you may further lengthen your lashes by using an eyelash curler before or after mascara application.

i usually do it after I put mascara on, but make sure that the curler is CLEAN or your mascara WILL cling to it.
and it will pull your lashes and HURT.

Apply some black eyeliner on your bottem eye too, smudge it a little so it doesn't look so sharpied into your face.

...
Done.

well smokey eye is always okay,but if you want something new,try to expirience with colours.Don`t use black eyeliner,it will make your eyes look small.Dark shadow shades make small eyes look even littler. Instead, brighten things up with light colors. Bone, taupe, heather, and soft white are good choices for all skin tones. For liner, go with a deeper tone, but avoid a thick line of black or charcoal, which can actually close up the eye.

Answer 4

If you can find a Japanese bookstore in your area, find Japanese fashion magazines. They usually have "visual" guide on "how to" make-up including eye make-up for Asian eyes. Since they are mostly visual, you don't necessary have to understand Japanese. Flip through the pages and see if they're useful for you.

Also, if you go to a Japanese store, you might find tools to make monolids into double eyelids.

Check out Thi Cosmetics (www.thicosmetics.com). The founder, Taylor Pham, made this cosmetic line esp. for Asians. She also has some great make up tips on the site!

Answer 6

I have the same problem. I just create a lid with the darker shade. I'm a Mark Rep so I am bias when it come to cosmetics. I know mark has foundations and tint mosturizers with yellow under-tones.
