Beauty Tip: How To Make Your Eyes Look Bigger

Big eyes; who doesn’t want beautiful peepers? I would love having those wide open large glistening eyes naturally. One thing is for sure – people with big eyes are often considered to look younger. 

Well, not every one of us is lucky to have big eyes. The good news is there are a few beauty hacks that make your eyes look bigger!

How to make your eyes look bigger

Line your waterline

The easiest way to make your eyes look bigger is to line your lower waterline using a nude eyeliner. If you want a more dramatic look, you can opt for a white or colored pencil liner. However, a beige liner gives off a more natural look. You should have your liner in your makeup bag for a retouch.

Conceal strategically

You can apply concealer to the inner and outer corners of your eyes. Normally, these areas look dark, so applying light to them will not only help in emphasizing the eyes but in bringing them forward. 

Highlight your brow bone

Highlighter is not just to add life to the cheekbones but is a great makeup that lifts the brow. Apply some on the inner corners of the eyes as well as on the brow bone and finally on the center of your eyelid. 

False lashes to the rescue

No other beauty hack can makes the eyes pop like false lashes. All you need is to ensure you get the right style that fits the shape of your eyes if you opt for strip lashes. Failure to do so will have the reverse effect which is to make your eyes appear smaller. If you are not in the mood for some false lashes, you can use a good mascara to add some volume to your natural lashes. Don’t forget to also apply some mascara to your lower lashes. You mustn’t necessarily go with black mascara; brown or colored mascara will go well with your lower lashes. Eyelash extensions can also offer a longer solution if you don’t want to deal with applying falsies daily. Or, you can also learn how to get long flirty lashes with your natural lash if you’re not a falsie fan.

Apply eyeliner

While we are still on the topic of how to make your eyes look bigger, eyeliner is another makeup item that cannot be overemphasized. To elongate your eyes, apply eyeliner to your upper and lower lash line. Start by drawing tiny lines on top of the upper lash line and make the line bolder as you get to the outer part of the lash line. Don’t forget to add a little upward curve to the outer lash line for a more dramatic effect. 

Apply eyeshadow

To help define your crease, eyeshadow helps to add some dimension to your eyes. Go for softer shades like light brown in your crease as dark eyeshadows can make the eyes appear smaller. 

Well-defined brow

There are many ways to achieve a perfect eyebrow. If you are dealing with aging, an eyebrow lift has long lasting results. If you’re looking for an easier way, eyebrow microblading last about 12 months and can give the appearance of lifted brows with beautiful arches. Or, you can allow your natural brow to thicken up and get a professional wax.

Whatever you do, don’t ever leave your eyebrow looking shabby otherwise all your efforts may end up in futility.
