Having mesmerizing, expressive eyes is every woman’s dream and one of
the reasons behind the existence of decorative cosmetics. When trying
to visually reshape your eyes, makeup is your best ally as long as you
keep in mind that black and dark colors make the eye look smaller. If
you wish to optically enlarge your eyes add eye shadows beginning at the
inner corner and working outward eventually using darker tones as you
near the outer corner. Use lighter and darker nuances of the same color
for best results.
Step one – the choice
Select a light neutral color of shades. For example, walnut or honey color for darker skin and gray tones for a paler complexion.
Step two – defining the guidelines
Look in the mirror and using your finger as a guideline place it horizontally to the point where the peak of the fold of your lid meets the brow bone. Add eye shadows only to the area below your finger.
Step three – the method
The brush that you use to apply eye shadow should be soft and flat. Apply shadows with horizontal strokes following the guideline of your finger.
Step four – application
You can paint outside the boundaries of your eye toward the outer corner, but keep within the guidelines determined by your finger. Blend all nuances smoothly to avoid creating contrast and looking like a clown.
Step five – the finishing touch
There should be no great difference where the eye shadows end and the skin on your temples begins. If there is a contrast, do your best to blend the shades as close to your skin as possible. If you do this right, you will create the illusion of bigger and wider eyes.
