Eye makeup for Asian Eyes

From beautynomics :

Let's start with the absolute must-haves - eyelash curler, mascara, and eyeliner. These three are the absolute must haves for the Asian eye, specially those who don’t have crease on their eyes ( It’s not a bad thing, I promise! ) , because the eyelash curler, paired with the mascara, opens up the eyes more. Eyelash perming is also a great alternative, for those who feel hassled by everyday eyelash curling. The eyeliner definitely makes the eyes look bigger.


For additional accessories, we have the eyebrow tweezer, and false eyelashes. Use the eyebrow tweezer to tweeze away bushy brows and maintain a fairly thin brow. I’m not saying that you must make it line-thin, but make it just-right-thin brows. Having well-groomed brows would help your eyes have more area for eye makeup, or just make your eye area bigger. False eyelashes on the other hand can make your eyes look a whole lot bigger.

Okay, for now, the tips!
1. For eyeliners, do not use ultra-dark colors such as black. They would make the look “harsh”. Go for soft colors such as dark brown, brown, or gray. My favourite is grey from Clinique. I have once used a black one from bodyshop..d'oh look like an Indian!

2. White eyeliners (pencil) applied on your inner rim of the eyes will make your eyes look more alive and bigger. White eyeliners are actually a little bit difficult to pull off, you can instead use iridiscent eyeliners on your inner rim.

3. Apply eyeliner on both upper lashline and lower lashline, and eyeshadow can also be appled on the lower lashline as well. Check out Song Hye Kyo ( a big Korean star, whose picture I used on the start of my entry ), whose eye makeup is really gorgeous. The eyeshadow was applied in such a way that the silvery white was applied below the lashline, on the inner corner-half of the eye, while the blue shadow was applied on the lashline on the other half - outer corner of the eye.

4. For eyelining small eyes, do not connect the lines drawn on the upper and lower lashlines, because they will make eyes look smaller. Stay away from the inner rims of the eyes, and substitute with iridiscent or just substitute with the light colored eyeshadow used in your eye makeup.5. Do not be afraid to experiment with colors - Asians look really cute with baby colors, and look sexy with deeper shades of plum, and bronze.
