Light eye makeup shades are known for being amazing at creating the illusion that your eyes are heaps bigger than they actually are, and white eyeliner is no different! It will make your eyes look totally and utterly illuminated as the white eyeliner widens them.
The blended, bronze colour on both top and bottom is perfect for making your irises stand out and to make a statement!
Choose a light, shimmery and luminous shade and apply this directly on your eyelids. Voila: it's as easy as that! A light eyeshadow will create the perfect contrast when it comes to applying the thin, subtle winged eyeliner later on.
Because you still want your barely there liner to stand out, it's important to use the darker shade sparingly and with precaution - you don't want to take the amazing overall effect away! The best way you can do this is to opt for a smokier shade such as dark brown which won't be too overpowering.
Harsh lines can be hard to avoid sometimes when applying eyeliner, but you can easily avoid this problem by angling or slanting a dark brown or bronze eyeshadow at the edge of your outer corner. This will 'pull' your eyes upwards towards the end of your eyebrow, which naturally creates a much softer look!
Carefully line your upper lash line in an ultra thin fashion and try to stay as close to the lash line as possible for best results! Opt for just the slightest flick outwards, so you have a subtle yet gorgeous cat eye effect that will have everyone super jealous when they see your fresh look!
