How can I make my eyes look bigger and my eyelashes longer?

1287453618 87 How can I make my eyes look bigger and my eyelashes longer?

I have dark brown eyes and would like to look for shades of colours to make them look bigger, brighter and to stand out more. I also have tanned skin and dark blonde hair. also how can I make my eyelashes look darker, longer and curvier?

A great mascara should be able to do both. go for a natural looking dark brown mascara, and if you like, a pretty shade of bronze liner would make your eyes really stand out.

Use some highlighter just below the brow bone, to open up your eyes too.

Gorgeous!

use white eyeliner on your bottom tearline :p

Mascara will make them pop, ifyou have short eye lashes, you can buy fake lashes. ELF (eyeslipsface.com) has fake lashes for 1$ and you can purchase those and just buy glue at the drugstore because the glue that comes with their lashes is not great. use eye liner or dark shadow to hide the glue or remnants left from applying them … |Green eye shadows, and browns are always good shades to go with.

Use MAC waterproof pencil outside of your eyes and use Maybelline Liquid Liner only on the top lid. use a dark shadow on your crease and use waterproof Dioshow for your mascara. You will be amazed as how big your eyes will look-

Mascara…try [lash blast]
And dont wear dark eyeliner, that makes eyes look smaller, try a little pearl white eye liner on the lower lid, it makes your eyes look bigger without it looking white. for eyeshadow
try a light pink or a skin~tone one shade lighter than your skin color. Hope this helps!

to make bigger-
use bright purple,orange,teal,pink,and copper all together in one.mix it if ya would like to hun.also, make your eyeliner REALLY thick(top and bottom)

don't wear too much makeup on your upper eye… use individual eyelashes and put them at the end of your eyelash… they look awesome! they give your eye and lashes such a curvy look……

if you already use mascara, i would suggest fake lashes ( i only use these for special occasions, i suck at the glue). instead of fake lashes, if you find them frustrating, try lash fibers, like tweezerman's lash fibers, magic lash, or make up forever's lash fibers. they are fibers that adhere to your lashes after a first coat of mascara, and then you cover them up with another coat of mascara (cause they're white) and they add length and volume. i wouldn't recommend this for everyday because they can flake and get into your eyes (big nono if you wear contacts). but i find it easier than fake lashes. also you have to have patients cause they are very hard to deal with, on the first few tries.

hope this helps ^_^

SMOKY EYES:

you cant go wrong with dark matted colours. the smokey eye look is great and so easy to achieve when you know how.

youll need: eye primer (you dont NEED it but its best for keeping your eyeshaddow put), two shaddows (one light, one dark), eyeliner, eyeshaddow brush and mascara.

firstly youll need to prep the lid, this is the key to keeping your eyeshaddow put all day long. this will also stop your shaddow melting into your eyelid crease after a few hours. to do this, start wil an eyeshaddow base/primer. try MAC's prep and prime eye or fresh freshface perfecting eye primer.

then youll need to apply eyeliner. if your going for a typical black, brown or grey smoky eye, apply liner in one of those colours above your lash line, making the line thicker in the middle of the eye. if you want to go for something a little different ie a jewel-toned colour, then violet makes a gorgeous smoky eye, so line the eyes with a purple, blue, or deep green liner. again, mac make great eyeliners but i also like ones by tigi, maybelline and loreal, so experiment untill you find something you like using.

then blend in the colour on the bottom of your lashes. for colour on the bottom (a key smoky eye look) youll need a lighter eyeliner. the key is to smudge it slightly. you can also apply a bit of shaddow to get a full smudge effect. personally, i find rimmel eyeshaddows great and theyre reasonably priced too!

next, apply a light base colour. again, the key to the smoky eye is pairing a lighter base with a darker hue. i prefer nice cream shades for my base which are very readily available. sweep a light, shimmery shaddow over your lids to your brow bone. try stilla's whipped eye shaddows. they are of a kind of mousse consistency and really do seem to stay on forever. taupe and pearl are must-have colours.

now blend in the darker colour, but keep the colour below the crease or youll risk looking like you have two black eyes. now that you have the base and eyeliner on, its time to get the smokey effect. you need a darker shade of eyeshaddow for this. using an eyeshaddow brush, blend in colour starting at your lash line and blending up. make sure to blend colour into the lash line so the eyeliner dissapears. stop the deep colour at the crease. then just double check your work to check that your eyes match and you can even blend the colour with a cotton bud if you want.

almost done. finish with several coats of volumising mascara like dior's show mascara or loreal paris volume shocking mascara.

…one more thing, remember to keep your lips to a nude colour otherwise you may end up looking a bit like a drag queen lol.

PRETTY EYES:

pretty, springtime eyes can be created using some of the new pastel, frosted eyeshaddow colours. try some of the new offbeat colours like pink or yellow. use them to line all the way around your eyes.

again, firstly youll need to prep the lid, this is the key to keeping your eyeshaddow put all day long. this will also stop your shaddow melting into your eyelid crease after a few hours. to do this, start wil an eyeshaddow base/primer. try MAC's prep and prime eye or fresh freshface perfecting eye primer. then the rest is simple, just apply your colour, if you want two seperate colours then remember to blend, blend, blend. finish off with some brown or black mascara and there you have it, another great look.

this look is great for eyes that are close set, use lighter coloured eyeshaddow on the inner portion of the lid towards the nose and darker eyeshaddow on the outer edge of the lid. (reverse technique should be used to apply eyeshaddow for widely spaced eyes).

NEUTRAL COLOURS:

the best make-up colours for brown eyes are actually neutrals. try colours in the brown family like taupes and peaches. l'oreal do some lovely neautral shades. try to somewhat coordinate your look. i dont mean your shaddow should be beige, your blush should be beige, and your lipstick should be beige. i dont mean a monotone colour, just a coordinated one.

apply primer as described previously. apply eyeliner under the eyes (above eyelashes) and a thin line above the eyes close to the eyelashes. grab your eyeshadow brush that is thinnest and dab it in the eyeshadow. raise your eyebrows, find the crease of your upper eyelid (where you might feel the bone for the top of your eye socket), and then take the brush and line it with the eyeshadow. do it as if you're holding a pencil and you're using it to draw on your eyes. do this to make a half circle above your eyes. (don't go too far out to the side of your face when doing this step).

to do the bottom part of the eyeshadow, take out your thin brushed eyeshadow brush again and dab it in your black eyeshadow. (tap it on the rim to get rid of excess eyeshadow that could fall off the brush and leave unattractive black spots of eyeshadow under your eyes or on your cheeks!) with one easy motion, start by putting the brush under your bottom lashes and sweeping it from side to side in a straight motion to create the point under the eye on both sides.

touch up by making sure no excess eyeshadow fell onto unwanted places on your face and adding a little concealer to seal the deal. and you're done!

COORDINATE YOUR COLOURS:

if you are wearing shaddows from the brown family, try a peach blush. if you are wearing a more colourful shaddow like violet or blue, use a berry or rose coloured blush. keep like colours together: muted with muted. bright with bright.

make-up for brown eyes really has no rules. when selecting an eyeliner, you can go with dark browns for a natural look and black for a more intense look. you can frame your eyes with tons of mascara and not end up looking all panda eyed. play it up and emphasize it all you want.
