Ever thought of "glamming" your eyes, to make it look more "awake"?
Look no further, here's 8 simple tips on how to make your eyes look bigger INSTANTLY!
1. LIGHTEN YOUR DARK CIRCLES
Say bye bye to your dark circles by colour correcting. Use a concealer slightly lighter than your foundation and apply it down to your cheek in a V shape. This acts as a lift and helps to brighten the whole face.
2. LENGTHENING MASCARA
This is THE must have for big, fuller eyes. It's a staple product that you should have in your makeup pouch to draw bigger eyes. Instead of a thickening mascara, get one which has lengthening effects.
3. GIVE YOUR LASHES A CURL
Never ever ever EVER skip this step! Without a curl, your lashes won't give off that dramatic BIG eye look you intend to have! By curling your eyelashes, it gives them an instant lift and therefore widens the eye. Magic, right?
4. BRIGHTEN YOUR WATERLINE
It's a beauty term, essentially it is the skin that is between the eye and your eyelash. Instead of using black eyeliner, try using a brighter neutral shade to "open" them up. It isn't white per se but a creamy, flesh-coloured tone will do the work.
5. HIGHLIGHT THE INNER CORNERS OF YOUR EYE
Apply highlighter at the inner corner of your eyes (near to the tear ducts). This will give an instant effect of "opening" your eyes and thus looking wider.
6. CONTOUR YOUR CREASE
Contour your eyelids to give them definition. Use an eyeshadow which is slightly darker than your skin tone. Apply it across the crease of your eyes. Remember to not overdo it though! Done wrongly, you'll end up looking like Panda!
7. EYEBROW
I know, you're gonna say but its eyes not brows. Honey, eyebrows play a part in creating a bigger eye look! If you frame your eyebrows in a strong brow shape, they'll "open" up your eyes. Try the catwalk model tip by brushing your brow upwards instead of across!
8. WING IT BABE
Draw your wing upwards and outwards by extending the line at the outer corner of your eyes. However, be careful while drawing your wing in the sense that they must not be too thick. This will have an adverse effect and cause your eyes to look droopy.
Now you've got these tips to give the impression of a bigger eye look. Have fun!
