It is obvious that far not every person is born with perfect face. And as for eyes, the great majority of people consider their eyes are too close together too far apart, too squinty, etc. therefore, we live in a day, where all sorts of optical illusions can be easily achieved with the help of a correctly applied makeup. Here come the simple techniques of applying eye shadow and eyeliner with the aim of several illusions based on the individual’s needs creation.

Thus, in order to make the eyes look...

Closer together. It is generally considered that the eyes would look better, when the emphasis occurs on the outer corner of the eye. Therefore, if the inner corner would be emphasized, this will help the eye look closer together. It is necessary to begin with sweeping some light shadow over the whole eye area. And then some medium color should be dusted on the inner half of the eyelid and blended outward in order for a natural finish to be created. And, finally, it is necessary to line from the inner corner of the eye and up to the middle and then blend outward.

Further apart. In case if the eyes are less than an eyes – width apart, it is possible to create the allusion of being wider set by making the inside corners of the eyes light and the outer edges darker. In order to do this one should blend well a concealer, which is one shade lighter than the natural skin tone at the inner corner of the lids. In addition, it is necessary to apply some gray eye shadow to the areas on the side of the nose. Then take some matte eye shadow in a medium – to – dark shade and have it stroked outward and slightly upward from the middle part of the lid to the outer half of it. With the help of an eyeliner one should start a line just a bit in from the inner corner of the eye, tapering it up and out, just a bit past the outer corner of the eye.

Bigger.  In order to make the eyes look bigger, one should focus on light shades, because dark ones make the eyes appear even smaller. Thus, it is necessary to sweep some light eye shade over the lid and then shade the outer corner of the lid along with the crease with some darker shade. Then the outer and lower lids are to be lined with the eyeliner, and the line is to be tapered a little bit outside the eye (making the eye elongated). And, finally, it is necessary to apply a dab of cream or white eye shadow in the middle of the brow bone, which will make eyes pop. However, making it, it is necessary to pluck the brows; otherwise stray hairs would stand out in such a way, as if lit by liked lights.
