Eye Makeup Tips

Protruding or Bulging eyes ?
Close set eyes ?
Wide set eyes? Not to worry, we have all the answers for you.

Protruding or Bulging EYE - the goal here is to recess the eye lid, from seemingly to protrude. Use a dark toned eye shadow and blend this over the eye lid, fading color away near eye socket. Apply a
eyeliner along top lid, and lightly smudge. On lower lid, draw eyeliner at outer corner only and smudge softly. Apply highlighter on brow line. Please don't use light or frosted colors on eyelid, as this will make eyes pop out further. With this eye shape, finish off with some navy or deep gray pencil on inner rims to help make the eyeballs appear smaller.

CLOSE SET These need a dark shadow blended into out half of the eyes to give illusion that they are further apart.

Start by drawing your pencil out a little just above natural eye crease. now blend a strong color into the outer area. The inner top lid area can be left natural or a pale color can be used if you like. When applying mascaras, brush your top lashes outwards, concentrating on the color with an extra coat on outer lashes

WIDE SET EYES can appear closer set and more attractive if you emphasize the inner eye area with color to draw eyes together. Apply eyeliner pencil all way across the bottom lid with only a tiny extension on the outer corners.

Apply any strong colored shadow to your outer socket line, but instead of extending it up and out, angle it towards your inner brows. Further enhance this with a lighter shade on your inner lid and complete the look with mascara concentrating on inner lashes.

SMALL EYES To recognize this as your shape, there seems to be very little space between lashes and eyebrows, so we need to give the appearance of a much larger eye. Apply a light color on the eyelid.

Use a darker shade in the socket (or crease) of eye and bring this color to the outer corner to lengthen eye area.

With dark toned eyeliner, outline eye, intensifying color slightly at outer edges of eye, then slightly smudge. Use a light highlighter along the brow bone to add width to eye.

DEEP SET EYES. This type appears like a hooded eye. Place a light colored shadow over entire lid, and apply a highlighter along the brow bone line. Use a darker toned shadow, and begin at the socket line and blend color out above the crease to recess the area. Use a small amount of eyeliner, in a thin line for definition only along top lid and 2/3'rds along lower lid blending towards the outer edge

ASIAN EYE SHAPE - usually has a minimal eyelid and eyes are wide space. Gently brush a light or neutral color over eye area and blend towards nose area. Using a darker shadow, apply to lid, starting along lash line, and fading the color upwards and out to a half-way pint between lash and eyebrow. Apply eyeliner close to lashes to give appearance of thickened lash line. Line the lower lid and smudge to soften the line.
