Eye Tricks

Here are a few basic eye makeup tips.

To stop raccoon eyes, sweep a little translucent powder under your eyes. To brighten tired eyes, apply white eye pencil to bottom lids.

Tweeze brows right after a shower OR put a warm washcloth on them before plucking.

Keep darker colors on lids.

Eyeliner Rules:
bright eyes= white, pink or yellow liner
red eyes= blue liner
sultry look= black liner

Line top of lids with black liner. Then take a lighter shade and line over the black BUT only from center to outer corner. 9.16.08

*EYES*
Idea for a longer curl? Before using an eyelash curlers heat it with a blow dryer to get a better held curl. But don't let it get too hot, or you'll let it burn your eyelashes and or eye.
Using an old mascara brush as a brow brush? It works great after you thoroughly cleanse it under hot water and soap (To get the mascara off). Them dip the brush in alcohol and let it dry. After that use it as a brow brush and spray some hairspray on an old toothbrush to keep brows in place.

Puffy eyes? Try a luke warm green tea bag under your eyes to get those bags to go far away. The green tea acts similar too chamomile; which is calming for sensitive skin. 2nd Choice: To help with puffy bags under your eyes, put an ice cube under them for about 10 seconds.

Best Eye Color

What colors are best for your eyes? I would say smoky grays are best for hazel but you can really use anything. If you want to make your eyes pop use the opposite spectrum trick. Purple or pink that's best for green eyes. Blue that's for brown eyes and lastly but not least brown, orange, or gray that is best for blue eyes.

Using white eye liner, off white shimmer silver or gold fleck near your tear ducts of your eyes will also brighten your eyes. Fair skin (if cool toned) use a champagne color. If your warm tone use a warm color of off white and if cool toned use a white silver. Be careful with the type of orange you use with blue eyes.
