Recently a reader emailed me with a question asking how to make their eyes look bigger with makeup so I thought I would do a 6 step by step post on how to!
You will need:
An Eyeliner
Some Eyelash Curlers
A flesh toned pencil
A light shimmery eyeshadow
1. Line your eyes with an eyeliner making sure that the highest point of the line is above your pupil, this will make eyes appear more rounded
2. Curl your lashes & apply mascara. Big fluttery lashes give the appearance of big open eyes! My favourite lash curlers are the Shu Uemura ones - you can read my post about them here :)
3. Apply a flesh toned pencil to your waterline to open up your eyes. My favourite is the Pixi Eye Bright Liner as it's the perfect pinky flesh toned shade & is twist up so no need to stress about a sharpener!
4. Taking a pencil brush apply a light shimmer shade, such as Ploof by Mac, to the tear duct of your eye to highlight it. This will enhance your eyes and make them look more open.
5. Carry on using that same shade along your lower lash line till just below your pupil
6. From where the light eyeshadow shade stopped, apply the darker eyeshadow along the rest of the lower lash line. Make sure they fade into each other by blending!
