Use Eye Makeup to Make Small Eyes Appear Larger

Chances are if you?re like most other women, you?ve always
wanted larger eyes. While we can?t change our genetic make
up, the good news is we can create the illusion of larger
eyes with eye makeup tricks and tips. In fact, if you?ve
ever noticed a celebrity photographed without makeup you
most likely have noticed how much smaller their eyes look
than their photos where they are all dressed up and made
over for most red carpet events.

To make your eyes appear larger use these eye makeup tips!

One of the easiest secrets to utilizing eye makeup routine
to correctly make your eyes look larger is to curl your
eyelashes. It?s important you curl your lashes BEFORE you
apply the mascara! If you forget to do it before applying
your dark mascara, be sure to wait until the mascara has
dried completely and then go ahead and curl them. If you
find throughout the day your lashes aren?t as curled as
they were in the morning when you first applied your makeup,
you can always re-curl them later in the day since your
mascara will be very dry by then.

Many women think they don?t need mascara on their bottom eye
lashes. However, most makeup experts believe adding mascara
to the lower lashes can help to enlarge their appearance.
The trick is to know how much to use on those bottom lashes!
Start by applying the mascara to the top lashes. Then, with
whatever is left on your brush (without redipping it into
the mascara formula), apply it to the lower lashes. Hold
your brush vertically and sweep it back and forth over the
lower lashes to get the right look.

If you want to go for a dramatic dark night time effect, you
may want to try your hand at false lashes. Most celebrities
do use false lashes for big events. If you know how to do
the lash application properly, they can be beautiful and
natural. Many larger department stores can help you learn how
to apply lashes at one of their cosmetics and beauty products

counters but they are also available at drugstores. Be sure
to practice before your big event. You can also remember to
use scissors to trim them (before applying them) if they are
too long.

Another technique to use involves the creamy white eye liner
pencil. This can help you get a doe-eyed style that will
brighten and widen your eye appearance. To get this look,
simply line the lower lids with the creamy white eye pencil.
You can find great liners from Sephora, Loreal or Estee
Lauder. To further brighten your eye area, use this soft
color also on the inside corner of both the upper and lower
lids.

If you don?t like the idea of the white shade of liner, you
can also use a platinum highlighter to open up the eye area.
Simply apply your shadow as usual and then use the high-
lighter on small dots along your browbone. Blend it in with
the shadow in that area, apply it to the inner corners of the
eyes and enjoy your new look.

For larger appearing eyes, you must also pay attention to
your brows. Be sure you manicure them well. It?s a great idea
to visit a professional to get your brows waxed, tweezed or
threaded. A pro can help you shape them properly. In between
pro visits you can maintain them by tweezing. If you have a
slight arch to your brows, you will find your eyes look
larger.
