It is true that sometimes we are too demanding of ourselves and we try very hard to achieve that ideal of "perfection" which, if you allow us, does not exist! Despite this, if you consider that your eyes are a bit bulging, too close together, or you just don't like them, because you see them somewhat separated, we have selected the best makeup tricks to hide these small imperfections.
Do you have a little bulging eyes?
To visually hide bulging eyes, you should add more color to the eyelid (using always dark shadows) and blend upwards and outwards. With this you will also optically lengthen the eye.
Essential
- Outline the bottom. Use brown pencil rather than black, but flush with the lashes rather than inside so that the googly eye effect is not accentuated.
- The eyeliner above. It will visually reduce the size of the eyelid. Make a fine line in the tear duct and much thicker from the middle of the eye outwards.
- Mascara. Apply only from the middle of the eye outwards to "tear" the look. Avoid wearing a mask down.
Avoid light shadows with a pearly effect. They stand out and open the eye. Go for the math.
Eyes too close together?
If your eyes are close together, you should play with two shades in the shadows. Apply the light shadows in the inner corner of the eye (closest to the nose) and the darker ones, from the middle of the eye to the outside, lengthening the blur. This will make your eyes look further apart.
Essential
- The concealer first. Before shading, apply a beige or ivory makeup concealer and apply it to the inner part of the eye.
- Get an eyebrow pencil. The eyebrows should start a little after the tear duct and extend towards the temples. If yours are too short, use a liner. If you want to get perfect brows, read this article.
- Outline only half an eye. Use the pencil or eyeliner only from the middle of the eye outwards.
Avoid applying too much mascara and go for pearly shadows, rather than dark ones.
Do you have eyes apart?
Here you have to use the shadows to your advantage to "bring" the eyes. The dark ones are applied to the inner part of the eye and fade outwards. The light shadows and the illuminator should go in the highest part of the eyelid.
- Defined bottom line . Outline the entire line of the eye well and review the line more in the area of the tear duct.
- Perfect eyebrows. So that your eyes are not so far apart, make sure you always have perfect brows. Try that the eyebrows are born near the tear and are not very long.
- Butt mascara. Give yourself an extra pass of black or dark brown mask into the innermost part of the eye.
Avoid blurring the shadows too much towards the temple. Doing so will still visually further the eyes away
Hollow eyes?
If you have sunken eyes, you should use light shadows in the areas where the eye looks more sunken and with creases, that is, the mobile eyelid. If you like dark shadows, use it in the upper area - on the bone - but only to draw the shape of the eye a little, without going overboard.
Essential
- Give them a point of light. A touch of highlighter or light shadow on the tear duct will open your eyes.
- White or light-colored pencil. If you outline the inside of the eyes with a light pencil, you will make your eyes look bigger.
- The eyeliner outwards. Lengthen the line on the upper eyelid outwards so that the eye does not look so round. You will be amazed with the result!
Avoid very wide brows. If they are well outlined, you will gain visual breadth in the eyelid.
