How to make eyes optically bigger? Make-up step by step

Hi, Girls!

Today I have some tips for those of you who need their eyes to pop-out a bit. I’ll present you with some make-up tricks that allow your eyes to “open up” and look bigger than ever.

The base for a make-up that makes eyes optically bigger is highlighting eye shadow. Dark colours on the eyelid make your eye to seem smaller.
Start with making your skin colour even so that no imperfection would take away the attention from the eyes. Use a concealer to hide the dark circles under the eyes. The eyelids treat with eyeshadow base and let’s begin 🙂

• Step one
  Light highlighting eye shadow, apply to the entire lid. I always go for very light shimmering beige or vanilla.
• Step two
  To the lower eyelid, starting from the external eye corner to the middle of the eye apply matte dark brown eye shadow. I use it also on the crease then blend so that colours mixed gently.
• Step three
  Use white pearly eye shadow on to the inner eye corner. The effect will be even more expressive if you’ll use eye shadows wet.
• Step four
  There’s nothing better for making your eyes bigger than eyeliner or dark eye pencil. You can use black or dark brown colour. The line must obviously match your eye shape. Otherwise, you can end up with effect reverse to the intended 😉 The line cannot start right by the inner eye corner. It is best to start it at the height of the iris edge (the one closer to the inner corner of the eye).
• Step five
  On to the lower eyelid, right by the lashes root line and under the line apply some matte black eye shadow.
• Step six
  Time for the most important step. Without it, you will never achieve the open eye effect; the water line, treat with an eye pencil in nude colour.
• Step seven
  Long eyelashes make eyes truly pop. So, finish your make-up with mascara. If you are not satisfied with the length of your lashes, you can add some individual false lashes. However, the best solution would be regular use of some eye conditioner. Use of eyelash curler is also a good choice as curled up eyelashes really “open” the eye.

To finish up, do not forget about your brows. These are the perfect complementation for eye make-up 🙂
