Eye Makeup Tips to Get Big Eyes for Everyday

Sometimes eye makeup tips feel like prep work for glamour shots. I know, hard to imagine. Can you really be too glamorous? However, sometimes when it comes to eye makeup, less is more. You simply do not have the option of wearing that elaborate smoky eye club look to work. At least, it wouldn’t be wise.

However, less eye makeup does not have to mean that your eyes are boring. You can get many of the same effects with less makeup for everyday wear. In fact these looks can save you major minutes. This tip cut my eye makeup time from 7 minutes to 45 seconds.

People who wear eye makeup usually want to accentuate their eyes. Giving your eyes a larger look is the best way to handle this with everyday makeup. If you do not want “made up” eyes then this eye makeup tip will help you.

You will need a light eye shadow and a darker one. The colors should complement your skin tones. They should be reflective, but definitely not glittery. Loreal’s “Wear Infinite” Holographic line works quite well for this look.

1. Apply the light eye shadow up to your brow. This will create a smooth skin tone with a bright eye area.

2. Make a smudgy line using the darker eye shadow in the crease of your eye. You are basically going to draw a thick semi-circle over your eye. This darker shades results in a wider, brighter look when your eyes are open.

That is it – you’re all done. Enjoy your new doe-eyed, bright look. You can dress the look up with a white or pink back tone and violet for the semi circle You might also try darker hues on the lid below the semi circle. Bright color lines on the eyelid make this look pop even more. Use these eye makeup tips for bright, huge eyes.
