Makeup Tips on Captivating Eyes

Don't Skip the Eye Liner

It's best to enhance your natural eye shape. Eye liner is important to help make eyes stand out. It's especially important to line the upper lids. There's no need to line the bottom lashes, but if you do, make sure the line is softer and smudged a bit with a finger. Never line the inside rim of the eye, it makes eyes appear smaller. Make sure the liner is visible when eyes are open. If they aren't, make the line thicker.

Build on the Eyeshadow

When it comes to eyeshadows, it's best to layer and blend in several shades on the lids up to the crease. Don't try to create a crease by drawing in a darker line at the crease, this can look fake.
I have noted my Asian friends look incredible with deep jewel colors brushed across their lids. You can get away with lots of beautiful jewel colors including blues, greens and even purples. I suggest experimenting with colors.

Use the layering technique when applying eye shadows. Start with a light base color, top with a medium color on the lid and then build onto this with a deeper color on the lid. It's important to blend so the eye makeup doesn't look harsh.
