How should I wear eye makeup on my small eyes?

I usually have a problem with my small eyes. I like wearing eyeliner and eyeshadow, but when I put on the eyeliner, you don't see the shadow, just black eyeliner because my eyes are so small. (i'm not chinese either!)... any help?How should I wear eye makeup on my small eyes?
Try putting darker eyeshadow on the outsides of your eye and lighter on the inside, or try something like this product:

They can make your eyes look bigger if you apply it right, directions are on the back of the case. I use those quad eyeshadow things and I love them :)


I put liquid eyeliner (it can take a lot of practice to get it right) on my top lid, then I take black eyeshadow and go over the eyeliner to make it look sort of smokey. This can make your eyes look bigger, too.





Also, when putting eyeliner on the bottom part of your eye, don't put it on your waterline. Put it below your waterline, like on your lash line.


What I do is I use liquid on the bottom too. I apply it on my lashline, not on my waterline, and if I mess up I take a q-tip, get it wet with makeup remover, and just take away the parts that I don't want.





It's easy if you practice :)How should I wear eye makeup on my small eyes?
nothing to dark or you eye will look beaty.I would recommend switching to brow eye liner it gives the same effect as the black and look just as nice.and the brand I would recommend is mac.mac has best make up in the world!!
if you have small eyes you shouldnt be putting eye liner on your top eyelids only on your bottom lids. apply a light eye shadow up to your brow bone and darker eye shadow closer to your eye, this will make your eyes appear bigger and bolder. good luck :]

first of all. you shouldnt stereotype races like that because im sure not every chinese have small eyes.





wear yours shadows bigger

What happens if you don't take off your eye makeup every night?

Sometimes I get so lazy at night I don't want to sit there and wash it off. What happens if you sleep with all of it on and do this on a regular basis? What happens if you don't take off your eye makeup every night?
well you will break out and you can also get eye infections





you may be lazy, but once you wash your face you will feel better about it





cause it cleans off all the dirt and oil from your makeupWhat happens if you don't take off your eye makeup every night?
Well its REALLY important to take off makeup before you go to sleep


1. You can get eye infections


2. really puffy eyes


3. Your skin on your eyes will age more quickly and become wrinkly


Do not go to sleep with makeup on and say ';Oh I'll just take it off directly when I wake up'; - no - take it off before you go to bed
youll get eye infections. i knew a nasty *** girl who would always do that and in the morning just put more makeup on over it, her skin was so nasty. you could also clog your tear ducts and thats almost impossible to unclog even with surgery.
it will clog your pores. one word -acne.





mascara is the worst. It will make your eyelashes weak and fall out eventually.
The makeup will clog your pores which means... BREAKOUTS.
It'll smudge and you won't feel so glamourous when you wake up.

Is there a more casual way to wear smokey eye makeup?

I love the smokey eye look, but when i do it, i feel like i shouldnt be wearing it on a daily basis. Is there a more casual approach to smokey eyes?Is there a more casual way to wear smokey eye makeup?
here is my smokey eye...step by step and simple as can be...





(((for a more casual, daytime look, work with neutral browns and pastel colors)))





start with a thin layer of shadow base or eye primer





black or dark grey shadow in the shape of a sideways V on the corner of the eye, working into the crease with a flat shadow brush (i use merle norman shadow in ebony and palladio flat shadow brush)





lighter grey shimmer shadow over the lid with a contour shadow brush, blending into the first darker shade (mac idol eyes is my favorite for this step, with a mark contour brush)





silvery/champagne shimmer shadow under the brow bone and dotted on inner corners of eyes with full shadow brush (merle norman shadow in sun beam with avon shader brush)





black liner all the way across top lid, slightly thicker on outer edges, and 3/4 way across bottom (avon glimmersticks liner in blackest black)





sweep thin line of medium shimmer grey under lower lash line, below and slightly over black liner





curl lashes and add 2 coats of volumizing black mascara (maybelline volum' express turbo boost 7Xs mascara in black)











-you can also do a smokey eye with shades of brown, purple, green... any color. i am wearing a smokey eye in greens right now... nile/vine duo from merle norman.











stila (at sephora) has a smokey eye kit that has 4 shadows in a palette...push a tiny button and a voice speaks instructions to you. there is also a holographic image of an eye that shows where the different shades go when you turn it. 30-something $$$








for drugstore palettes, try revlon, loreal, covergirl and maybelline. i know all of those lines carry them, but not sure of the names. avon also has a shadow quads. ';sueded nudes'; is a good one for browns, and ';smokey eyes'; is good for greys, although the greys are on the lighter side. you could also try ';fresh cut greens'; and ';vintage violets';.





good luck and have fun!!!Is there a more casual way to wear smokey eye makeup?
Try smudging your eyeliner and applying a more neutral shimmering shade to the eyelid and a slightly deeper complimentary shade in the crease of the eye. Silver colors look great at night and shimmery beiges/bronzes and browns are good for the day time. In my opinion smudging and blending the eyeliner gives a softer more natural smoky eye.
Well, you can use browns and greys instead of black or


just put some eyeliner around your eyes and gently smudge to create a smokey effect, but skip the eyeshadow and don't make the lines too thick.
Instead of the black/grey smokey eye, i use browns/creams and shimmer for the daytime smokey eye!
To get a daytime smokey eye, I have a less deep version of the same colors I would use at night--for example if you use dark gray, downgrade to a heather/slate gray. Additionally, I put the eyeliner on the inside edges of the lid rather than the outside so that it still makes my lashes look thick but doesn't give that made up look.
it depends on your coloring. my friend looks really natural in smoky makeup b/c of her hair color.
Sure there is! I just line the bottom and top of my eye, but smudge the top of the lid. You can just add some dark eyeshadow (not too dark cause you want it casual) and then maybe a gold color! You'll look great!
yeah there is. The smokey eye look is very pretty, and it can be done lightly and heavy. Most people do it heavier, but if you like it, you could try it lighter for daily wear. Go with a charcoal grey and then smudge instead of black. It will have the same affect with a slightly lighter more subtle shade. Hope this is what you wanted!
try lighter browns or greys so that its not as intense =]
some kinds of makeup do not work very well.

What color eye makeup would look good on me?

I have dark-medium brown hair, light brown cafe-au-lait skin and small, yet almond shaped dark, reddish-brown eyes. What color(s) eyeshadow/eyeliner would you all suggest for a cute smoky eye look?What color eye makeup would look good on me?
Virtual Makeover. It's free, super easy and fun. You can play with colors and find a look you will love. Then it shows you how to apply your new look. Just click http://marykay.com/mgunther2What color eye makeup would look good on me?
Three shades.


1) vanilla to put in the corner of your eyes closest to your nose.


2)dark brown to put on the outter edges of your eyes


3)black (shade, not eyeliner. The shade makes it look more natural and smooth and not so ';defined';). Put it just above your eye lashes.


Use black mascara.
a creamy brown eye shadow would be perfect for you for the eyeliner black or dark brown is a really cute simple choice that almost everyone can use!
Use an eye liner and eye shadow that matches your skin tone----use blacks and browns---find a brown that is as close to your natural skin tone as possible
Try this : lightly dust with very light purple all of\ver eyelid, do liquid liner on top lid, then add brown %26amp; grey eye shadow and blend to fade into the purple.





It works for me!
first of all put a cream color shade all over your eye then apply a goldish brown color on lid ,and at the corners use smoky black shade.
i think golden eyeshadow would be great! but no eyeliner, just a bit of mascara or black kohl well blended
i think that a dark green or black or even a nice chocolate brown shade will look on u to give u that smokey eye

  • How can i get my eye makeup to stay on and not fade away?

    It would help if you knew some brands also that are good.How can i get my eye makeup to stay on and not fade away?
    I love Bobbi Brown and Trish McEvoy. My favorite way to apply eyeliner is to dampen a small brush and smoosh it around on eyeshadow. (My favorite colors are dark brown and plum.) Then I use that as the eyeliner. When it dries it seems to stay on longer than pencils. That said, Benefits has this great big kohl pencil that I put on and smudge with a Q-tip.How can i get my eye makeup to stay on and not fade away?
    artistry is a very good brand.
    try different brands my mom uses covergirl and i use wet n wild
    Put liquid foundation on and follow with powdered. I do that and it stays on until I take it off at night.
    Well it depends what kind of eye make up





    Mascarea--Just buy a long lasting one





    Eyeshadow-- Before you buy it test it out on your hand rub it in see how long it takes to fade away... cream eyeshadows dont stay on for very long at all.. so try normal ones....brands and makees dont really matter!!





    Eyeliner-- water proof
    Spray some hairspray lightly over your face when you've done your make-up
    You need to use an eye primer under your eye makeup. It helps your makeup stay on longer and keep it's vibrant color. Mary Kay has a wonderful product called MK Signature Eye Primer. I love it!





    You can check it out at www.marykay.com/akosmoore. If you would like a sample or two, you can send an email to akosmoore@marykay.com.





    Have fun and stay fabulous!
    certian ones stay on longer than others
    If your eyeshadow is disappearing try putting some foundation make up on first, this keeps it in place. There are lots of good brands that are not expensive, just stay away from the really cheap stuff.
    Here are the brands I use that don't run:


    Rimmel Special Eyes


    Loreal Wear Infinite


    Avon Glimmersticks


    Avon Ultraluxury





    Do NOT use Avon Colortrend. I sell Avon but those run like hell.
    Before you put on eyeshadow, on your eyelid, smear LITTLE bit of vaseline on your eyelid and that will help your eyeshadow stick on for a longer time. Make sure not to put too much or your eyes will look ';greasy';
    loreal is a very good brand it neva wears off i always use it

    get some silver eyshadow and put on a light coat at the creases(not the middle) then use the black eyeshadow and do a thin line above the crease of ur eye..then dust it over from the middle of ur eye to the end....dont put to much above the crease or youll look like a drag queen! now load up on the eye liner and mascara for that dramatic look...if u dont have the colors i sed just use to shades of the same colors (ex. lgh pink and drk pink....lilac and purple ect...) good luck!!!

    i always use this, instead of using eyelinner because my eyes are too small , I use some black eyeshadow and depende pf my clothes i aply some color, the lighther tones outside and the darkest tones inside. (for night)


    also if you have brown eyeshadow and an little brush you can put it on the ';downer'; part of the eye





    Sorry for my english :D , i'm chilean
    Take a brush about [ ] %26lt;----that wide of brush and take the pink/purple and spread it from your eye brows down...also...if you have some tan or white eye shadow...mix it in with the pink or purple. also...take eye lash curlers and curl them and then put on a volumizing mascara...you'll look like a cute hottie in no time. Also, before you put on any makeup, put on some moisturizer and concealer and then put on the makeup =]
