How to make up eyes to make them look bigger

With the help of makeup, any girl can change or correct her appearance: hide unwanted defects on her face or give charm to her image. An important role is played by the eyes. The sexual attractiveness of a woman often depends on their expressiveness.

Not all nature endowed with big eyes. But if desired, with the help of cosmetics, they can be visually increased. But only in this situation you need to master the makeup technique so as not to look theatrical or vulgar.

What is included in makeup

Speaking about the adjustment of appearance, usually involve the use of cosmetics. As for the eyes - this is mascara, eyeliner, shadow. It is their skillful application that will help make the eyes larger and more expressive. The choice of color shades can both make the eyelids heavier and make them lighter, “airy”. If a woman of fashion has a sense of taste, she will easily be able to "open" her eyes.

The shape (also the grooming) of the eyebrows plays a role here. Learning to pluck them correctly, you can give the face not only a peculiar expression, but also correct your eyes.

Choosing makeup for yourself, you should focus only on your type of appearance, not imitating either girlfriends or famous fashionistas. It is the proximity to naturalness that will make you feel more confident. And then the eyes will truly become expressive and sparkling.

Much depends on eyeliner

It is the correct use of eyeliners that will correct the eye section in the right direction. Close-set slightly “spread”, and widely set visually closer. Overly convex eyes can make the eyeliner less noticeable, and give the small ones volume.

To give your eyes expressiveness and make them bigger than they really are, take the following rules into service:

• the eyeliner should be lighter in color than the mascara applied to the eyelashes;
• on the lower eyelid make thinner than on the upper;
• the stroke line is applied as if from the inside of the eyelid - along the mucosa;
• the width and intensity of the eyeliner should increase in the direction from the inner corner of the eye.

When doing makeup, it should be borne in mind that the smaller the eyes (and at the same time they are deeply set), the eyeliner should be more delicate, not striking.

Classic Big Eyes - White Eyeliner

Trying to make the eyes bigger than they are, it is not necessary to select eyeliner to match the ink. The best option would be to get a white pencil or shades close to it (beige, ivory). The charming beauties of the last century used this technique: Gwyneth Paltrow, Marilyn Monroe, Marlene Dietrich. Now, light actress is used not only by film actresses and famous models. Many fashionistas in a cosmetic bag had a similar kayal. And this suggests that the classics are always in fashion.

Contour lines are drawn in pencil on the inside of the eyelid. To do this, it should be slightly pulled with your fingers. Draw the line carefully so as not to damage the tip of the eye. But as a result, the protein will become visually larger, and the look is not just more expressive - it will become hypnotic.

This technique is especially recommended for women with small eyes. And white eyeliner should be done on both centuries. Others can be limited only to the bottom line, leaving the top untouched.

You can experiment with the length of the white line. It does not have to be drawn around the entire contour of the eye - limit yourself to the middle of the century.But the inner corner should always be clearly drawn.

Create the right eyebrow

No matter how you try to carefully apply makeup to enlarge the eyes, overhanging eyebrows can nullify all attempts. Therefore, this element of the face should be given a certain curvature. So without plucking the extra hairs here can not do.

In order for the eyebrows to have the necessary shape for visual enlargement of the eyes, you need to adhere to some principles. Even here there are standards.

• Eyebrows should not be too thin or absent altogether.
• Eyebrow width - the value is not constant, i.e. closer to the bridge of the nose they are wider than the temple.
• Creating a line of eyebrows, pluck them only from the lower edge, leaving the upper border unchanged.

When forming an arc, consider the following rules:

1. Snapping the inner edge of the eyebrows should not be done to the bridge of the nose, but to the corner of the eye.
2. To determine the end point of the eyebrow contour, mentally draw a line from the tip of the nose through the outer corner of the eye.
3. To determine the peak of the curvature of the arc, a line is drawn from the tip of the nose through the middle of the pupil.

Having shaped eyebrows in this way, you seem to visually raise your upper eyelids. From which the eyes themselves become more expressive.

Color scheme

Using shadows in makeup, you can complement the image. And you can "ruin" it with the wrong selection of color shades. Creating the effect of big eyes, you need to rely on the artistic taste and correctly apply the makeup technique.

1. Using shadows, you can visually raise the eyebrow line. To do this, just put shadows of light shades of glare in the place where the eyebrows make a kink.
2. Shadows can be used as eyeliner, applying them with a thin brush. For the lower eyelid, golden or brown shades of shadows are used. Or pick their color to match the eyes.
3. Able to increase eyes and shadows with shine. But they should not be applied to the entire eyelid, but add only a small drop at the inner corner. True, this recommendation is not suitable for everyone. For example, for women with slightly bulging eyes, shine will be superfluous.

The application of eye shadow on the eyelids, the selection of the color scheme of the eyes should be strictly individual and proceed from the typical features of the face.

Consider the appearance

Not everyone needs to visually increase their eyes. Some are already lucky to be born with wide eyes. But for those with small eyes, their artificial expressiveness may not be suitable. Therefore, resorting to makeup, consider the type of your appearance.

Thanks to experiments, you can choose a winning combination of colors in the shadows used. But be sure to take into account a number of the recommendations below.

1. To slightly enlarge small eyes, make eyebrows “light” with shadows. To do this, use light shades. Instead of shadows on the upper eyelid, you can apply powder or blend a pencil. Black mascara is applied to the eyelashes in several layers.
2. Light shadows will add expressiveness to deep-set eyes. If you add makeup not with bright color eyeliner and mascara of the same shade, and make the eyebrow line more clear, then your eyes will become especially irresistible.

Big eyes with heavy eyelids

It is difficult to achieve the desired effect when you have heavy eyelids. But here there is a make-up technique. The beauty guidance algorithm is as follows:

• Eyebrows are combed up and tinted with a pencil.
• An eyeliner is made of the upper eyelid, and then a contour is drawn over it.
• To create a natural transition, the outline and stroke are gently rubbed.
• The space under the eyebrows should be highlighted with a cosmetic pencil.
• A line of light brown tones is drawn along the inner edge of the lower eyelid.
• Mascara is applied to the eyelashes so that they curl slightly.

Some use special mascara with a curling effect. But it does not suit everyone and looks a bit theatrical.Similarly, do not use artificial eyelashes - from them the eyelids will seem even heavier.
