How do I suppose to wear my eyeshadow or eyeliner to make my eyes look bigger?

on the top of your eyelid, draw a thin line with eyeliner right above the eyelashes, and keep carrying it out like a couple millimeters after your eye lid ends. do it on the bottom of the eyelashes too, on the part of skin that touches your eye, and the same on the bottom eyelid, above the eyelashes. curl your eyelashes up on the top, but dont touch the bottom ones. idk if you can picture what i'm saying, but yeah. it works.How do I suppose to wear my eyeshadow or eyeliner to make my eyes look bigger?

This will get your eyes looking much bigger and brighter.How do I suppose to wear my eyeshadow or eyeliner to make my eyes look bigger?
to make your eyes look bigger its best to place the eyeliner on top of your eyelashes. make a line right above the eyelashes. like the egyptians used to do.


for eye shadow, you could shade it certain areas to make the color come out more or to just make them more noticeable.
This question is my forte. Apply all your base make up first, concealer/foundation/powder or whatever you use. I don't know the color of your eyes, so the color of eye shadow depends on that. With that said:








1) Take a light eyeshadow (I use a cream color- like off white) and apply it to your eye lid as usual. Then apply the same color along your bottom lid.





2) Then take her eye liner and line the top- make the line thicker on the outside of your eye and draw it thinner as you go in towards your nose. Do the same for the bottom. Slightly thicker on the outsides and thinner as you go in (Best if you don't even apply eye liner to your ENTIRE bottom lid, instead start on the outsides and stop when your 2/3rds of the way in.)





3) Then take a darker eye shadow and apply it to the crease of your eye lid. This adds depth.





4) Add mascara and you're done!





This might seem overly long and complicated, but it takes me no more than 5 minutes to do. I get comments about my eyes almost daily and people have stopped me several times and asked me how to do eye make up.





If you have blonde hair/blue eyes use a light gold for the base eye shadow and a brown for the darker shade. Brown eye liner is the best. These colors make blue eyes really pop!


For brown hair/ brown eyes. Stick with neutral colors. Like a white or cream base and dark brown for the crease. (Hazel eyes look best if you use a plum color in the crease. It will bring out all the green specks, but it can be hard to make it look right for somewho doesn't use make up alot).





Tip: Never use the eye shadow applicator that comes with eye shadows! It will look to heavy and not blended at all. Use a bristle eye shadow brush always, your make up will blended. And stay clear of eye shadows that are shimmery! It looks cheap and only works SOMETIMES if you're really tan. Matted colors are the best 9 out of 10 times.
What I do is I put white eyeliner on the inner corners of my eyes and I only line the bottom half of my eye in black.
Just line the top only with black liner and black mascara only on top lashes. Lining both top and bottom tends to make eyes look smaller.
wear black eyeshadow. or dark grey. just make sure to put on eyeliner first, then take a brush and sort of close your eye but sweep the brush with black eyeshadow across your crevice where the bone ends and your eyeball begins. i really suck at describing things but i've done this for years and it really works. also, if you put white eyeshadow or something on top of the eyeliner line, it will make them look HUGE
The key to making your eyes look bigger is to line them on top, not underneath!
Your best bet is to use a liquid eyeliner and draw it as thin as possible. For eye shadow, you should use a darker shade of eyeshadow in the crease. The darker shade should complement and flow together with the shade you have on most of your eyelid. The darker color will give your eyes more depth. Good luck!
BRING OUT THE WHITES OF YOUR EYES. Draw a fine line with eyeliner along the upper lash line for definition. Line lower lids with a nude or very light color liner to make the whites of your eyes brighter and open them up. Curl lashes, add mascara and comb to separate for the maximum eyeopening effect.
Eyeliner can make even the smallest eyes appear larger. Applying it correctly is key, you don't want the line to be too dark, harsh and obvious or you risk looking overdone.





To make eyes appear wider, trace the inner rims of eyes with a white pencil.





Choose an eyeliner appropriate for your eye color. Brown, navy and charcoal accent light eyes well, while brown and plum shades flatter brown eyes. Make sure your liner complements the color of your shadow.


Consider the type of look you're after. Pencil eyeliner gives your eyes soft definition, while liquid versions offer precision and drama. You can also moisten dark eye shadow and apply it with a small, flat brush.


Draw a line across the upper lid just above the lashes, from the inside corner to the outside corner of the eye. If you're using liquid liner, allow it to dry before opening your eyes all the way, or the color may transfer into the crease of your eye.


Line the lower lids. Moving from the outside edge inward, draw a line on the outer two-thirds of the lid or more, depending on the look you're going for. Your line should be slightly thicker at the outside corner, becoming thinner as it moves in toward your nose. Using your brush or pencil, lightly stroke the area. If using a liquid liner, apply it in one smooth stroke. Apply less color so your eyes don't appear raccoonlike.





You may find eyeliner, particularly the liquid version, difficult and messy the first few times. Practice and have patience.


Wash brushes regularly with makeup remover or a mild gel shampoo.


Lining the inside of the lower lid is not recommended'it may cause eye infections, and it greatly increases the risk of getting makeup in your eye.
Where eyeliner on your eyelid, right above your eyelashes. and curl your eyelashes to make your eyes look even bigger.
Right Above Your Under Eye lashes is a line of plain skin apply waterproof eyeliner right there and for eye shadow put darker colors by your eyeliner on the top of you eyelids and lighter colors above the darker (it may seen like alot of make up but if you get it just right it is gorgeous)
