Blue Eyes

If you want to make your blue eyes stand out start by using the right eye shadow colors. Brown, beige and silver work best, but maybe not altogether.

UPD:

If you have blue eyes, you can bring out their beauty with the right eye makeup. Start by using the right eye shadow colors. Browns, beiges, and silvers are the best options. Avoid using all of these colors together, as this can be too much. Instead, choose one color as the base and then blend in the others.

When applying eye shadow, you should use a brush to apply the product. This will help you get an even coverage and make the colors look more vibrant. Avoid using your fingers, as this can cause the eye shadow to look patchy.

To make your blue eyes stand out even more, use an eyeliner to define your eyes. Black, brown, or navy blue are all great options. Line the top of your upper lash line and then smudge the line with an eyeshadow brush. This will help soften the line and make your eyes look more natural.

For a striking look, use a bright colored eyeliner. Colors like green, purple, and blue will really make your blue eyes stand out. Apply the eyeliner to your upper lash line and then smudge it with a brush.

Brown Eyes

Browns eyes can really pop with gold, tan and blue shades of shadow. The color contrast is what helps bring them out.

UPD:

Brown eyes are a beautiful feature that can be enhanced with the right makeup. For those with brown eyes, gold, tan, and blue shades of eyeshadow can help make them really stand out. The contrast between the colors of the eyeshadow and the color of the eyes helps to make them pop. When applying eyeshadow, it's important to use a primer to help the eyeshadow stay in place and last longer. Additionally, it's important to blend the eyeshadow so that it looks natural.

When it comes to eyeliner, brown eyes can be accentuated with black, brown, or navy eyeliner. Black eyeliner is great for creating a dramatic look, while brown and navy eyeliner can create a softer, more subtle look. When applying eyeliner, it's important to use a light hand and to make sure the liner is blended properly.

Green Eyes

Can you guess what colors will make green eyes stand out? Makeup artist suggest using purple, blue, sliver and pink to really emphasis green eyes.

UPD:

Green eyes are a beautiful and unique feature, but they can be hard to accentuate with makeup. Fortunately, there are a few tricks to help make green eyes stand out.

The key to making green eyes pop is to choose colors that contrast with the green. Makeup artists suggest using shades of purple, blue, silver, and pink to really emphasize the color of green eyes. These colors can be used in eyeshadow, eyeliner, or mascara to bring out the beautiful green color.

Eyeshadow is a great way to make green eyes stand out. When choosing eyeshadow, look for shades of purple, blue, and pink that are slightly darker than the eye color. For a bold look, use a shimmery shade of silver or gold to make the green stand out.

Eyeliner is another great way to make green eyes stand out. Try a dark blue, purple, or pink eyeliner to bring out the green. If you want a more subtle look, use a light brown or gray eyeliner.

Small Eyes

Sometimes smaller eyes don’t get as much attention, but with the right eyeliner tips you can really make your eyes stand out. You are going to want to line your top lash line from the midpoint of our eye to the outer edge. You can even go beyond the edge just a little. Also line your lower lash line a quarter of the way in. This technique draws attention to the outside of your eyes making them appear larger.

5

Brighten up

Are your eyes looking a little dull? Try to brighten them up with a little peach or beige liner along the bottom rim from corner to corner.

Eyelashes

My favorite way to make eyes stand out with by curling lashes. If your lashes are straight or point down this technique will really open up your eyes.

UPD:

Using an eyelash curler can create the illusion of longer, more fluttery lashes, enhancing the natural beauty of your eyes. Heat the curler with a blow dryer for a few seconds before using it for an extra effective curl that holds longer. Remember to be gentle and avoid pulling to avoid any damage. Follow up with a coat of volumizing or lengthening mascara to further define your lashes. For a more dramatic effect, add a second coat, but be sure to apply while the first coat is still wet to prevent clumping.

7

Mascara

Mascara has a way of taking your face from boring to vivacious. Black mascara is the key to making your eyes stand out. In my opinion without mascara all other techniques are useless.

8

Even Brighter Eyes

Another tip to brighten up your eyes is to use a little white shadow on the inside of your eye near the tear ducts. Just this little bit of white can make a huge difference.

9

Highlight

Don’t forget to highlight your brow bone. This is the area beneath your eyebrows and above your crease. Add a simple light white or beige shade to the area for full effect.

UPD:

Highlighting your brow bone is an essential step to making your eyes stand out. The brow bone is the area beneath your eyebrows and above your crease. By adding a light shade of white or beige to the area, it will help to define your eye shape and create a more dramatic look.

Highlighting your brow bone can also help to brighten up the area under your eyes, giving you a more awake and youthful appearance. When applying the highlight, be sure to use a small brush to ensure you don’t overdo it, as too much can make your eyes look harsh and unnatural.

When choosing a highlighter color, it’s important to select one that is a few shades lighter than your skin tone. This will help to create a subtle contrast, giving your eyes a more defined shape. You can also use a shimmery highlighter for a more glamorous look.

Highlighting your brow bone is a great way to make your eyes stand out and look their best. With the right technique and product, you can create a dramatic look that will draw attention to your beautiful eyes.

Eyebrows

While we are on the topic of eyebrows let’s not forget to keep those bad boys tame. Unruly eyebrows can draw attention away from your eyes. If you want your to make your eyes stand out be sure to pluck or wax your brows.

UPD:

Eyebrows are an important part of making your eyes stand out, and it's important to keep them well groomed. Plucking or waxing your brows can help give them a more defined shape, while also drawing attention to your eyes. When done properly, your eyebrows can frame your face and draw attention to the eyes.

Eyebrow makeup can also be used to enhance the look of your eyes. Eyebrow pencils and powders are great for filling in sparse areas and creating definition. Eyebrow gels and waxes are also available to help keep the hairs in place.

When it comes to eyebrow shape, it's important to choose one that flatters your face. A good rule of thumb is to go for a shape that is slightly wider than your eyes. This will help to draw attention to your eyes and make them look bigger.

It's also important to choose the right color for your eyebrows. If you have dark hair, you should opt for a shade that is slightly darker than your hair color. If you have light hair, you should choose a shade that is slightly lighter than your hair color.

11

Deep-Set Eyes

Do you have deep set eyes? If you do here is little tip. Use a shimmery shadow in the hue appropriate for your eye color. The shimmer will draw your eyes out more.

12

Neutral Lip Color

Either you want to draw attention to your eyes or your lips. You can’t do both. That’s just too much drama for one face. If you want to make your eyes stand out wear a neutral lip color.

13

Dark Circles

Conceal dark circles under your eyes. We want people to notice your eyes for good reasons, not because you have bags and look like you haven’t slept in days.

UPD:

Dark circles under the eyes can be caused by a variety of factors, including lack of sleep, stress, genetics, aging, and allergies. Concealing dark circles is an important part of any makeup routine, as it helps to brighten the eyes and make them appear more awake and vibrant.

Before applying concealer, it is important to make sure the skin around the eyes is well hydrated. This will help the concealer blend more easily and look more natural. Applying an eye cream or moisturizing serum can help to hydrate the skin and reduce puffiness.

When selecting a concealer, it is important to find one with a light to medium coverage that is slightly lighter than your skin tone. In order to make sure the concealer blends well, use a small brush to apply it in a patting motion. Then, use a damp beauty sponge to blend the product into the skin.

To set the concealer, use a light dusting of translucent powder. This will help to keep the concealer in place and reduce creasing. For added brightness, apply a light-reflecting eye cream or primer before the concealer.

14

Black Liner No-No

While a heavy black eyeliner circle around your entire eye will attract attention, it’s not the kind of attention we were seeking. Avoid doing this. It makes your eye look really small.

UPD:

Black eyeliner can be a great way to make your eyes stand out, but it’s important to be careful with it. Applying a heavy black eyeliner circle around your entire eye will draw attention, but unfortunately it’s not the kind of attention you want. This look makes your eyes appear much smaller than they actually are.

It’s best to use eyeliner to emphasize the shape of your eyes, not to cover them up. To make your eyes stand out, try using a thin line of black eyeliner along the top of your eyelid, close to the lash line. This will emphasize the shape of your eyes and make them appear larger. You can also try using a brown or grey eyeliner for a softer look.

For a more dramatic look, you can add a touch of eyeliner to the bottom of your eyes, but be sure to keep it close to the lash line to avoid making your eyes look smaller. You can also add a touch of eyeliner to the outer corners of your eyes to make them look wider and more awake.

15

False Lashes

I think fake lashes look terrific and with black liner are gorgeous for a night out or a special event. I don’t think the same look is as effective for a run to the grocery store or post office. Save the all that glamor for the right occasion.

16

Glasses

Do you wear glasses? Don’t worry you can still make your eyes stand out. Add a light concealer underneath your eye all the way to the outer corner. The light color attracts attention and hides in shadow caused by glasses.

17

Bigger Lashes

If you want to add more drama to your lashes without going all out with faux lashes, trying applying a couple more coats to the outer lashes. It will make them appear thicker and longer.

18

Bottom Lashes

Sometimes these poor little guys just get forgotten, but if you really want to make your eyes stand out you will show them a little attention. Don’t go crazy, one or two coats of mascara should be enough.

UPD:

Bottom lashes are often overlooked when it comes to eye makeup, but they can make a big difference! When applying mascara to your bottom lashes, be sure to use a light hand and only use one or two coats. This will help to prevent clumping and make your eyes look bigger and brighter.

Using an eyelash curler can also help to open up your eyes and make them stand out. Start at the base of your lashes and curl inwards in a gentle, upward motion. This will help to lift and separate your lashes, giving you a more natural and defined look.

To finish off your eye makeup, use an eyeliner pencil to define your lower lash line. This will help to create a more dramatic look and will also make your eyes appear wider. Start from the outer corner of your eye and work your way inwards, creating a thin line that follows your lash line.

You can also add a touch of shimmer to your lower lash line for a more glamorous look. Use a shimmery eyeshadow and apply it along your lower lash line, blending it outwards. This will help to draw attention to your eyes and make them appear brighter.

19

Clear Eyes

One of the best ways to make your eyes stand out is to use redness reducing eye drops. Sometimes we're tired and our eyes or our allergies are acting up so eyes can look red and tired. Add a couple of drops of redness reducing eye drops to help reduce redness and make the whites of your eyes really stand out.

20

Powder Puff

To make shorter, thinner lashes stand out a little more, dust some translucent powder to your closed eyes before you apply mascara. The powder will plump up and slightly lengthen your lashes to make eyes pop.

21

Layer Lashes

We've talked about using false lashes to make eyes stand out, but what about using more than one pair? It might sound a little over-the-top, but it's a great way to achieve dramatic eyes. This might not be a very practical look for every day, but it's a fab way to create a customized look. Try layering different types of lashes like different lengths, colors and even lashes that have embellishments like rhinestones.

22

Walk the Tight Line

You know that gap of skin that you can see between the lashes and eyelid? It does absolutely nothing to make your eyes stand out, so cover it up! Tightline your eyes by applying a dark liner underneath the upper lash line and make sure you apply eyeliner on the top lash line as close to the edge as possible.

23

Highlight

Similar to adding concealer underneath the eyes, using a highlighter around the eye area can really brighten your eyes. There are some concealers made to brighten the eye area while concealing dark circles which are a great option and time saver.

24

Cancel Colors

If you've got some discoloration underneath your eyes, concealer might not be enough. Apply concealer as usual and then add some yellow-based powder on top. Adding a yellow-based powder helps set the concealer and it also cancels out blue and purple making you appear rested and fresh.

25

Beware of Brown

We're not saying you should avoid all brown eye shadows, but be careful with some of the reddish-brown shades of eye shadow. These colors can make eyes look tired, hungover or sick.Yikes!
