MAKING EYES LOOK BIGGER WITH MAKEUP
We know that using makeup can make our eyes look brighter, more alert, and accent our entire face. What you may not know however is that makeup can also help make your eyes look bigger or smaller. The most common thing is trying to make eyes look larger if eyes are too squinty or thinner than normal. There are a few tips and tricks on using makeup to help make your eyes look larger, all you need is the right know-how.
Curling lashes before your apply mascara, or after the mascara dries, can really help to open up your eye area and make your eyes look larger – this is one of the most commonly used tips of people trying to enlarge their eyes. Another good tip is to apply mascara to your bottom lashes as well as your top, if you usually avoid doing so. This makes your eyes look more even and opens them up as well. More tips for helping your eyes appear larger include using a white liner pencil on the lower edge of your eye – this draws the eyes away from a squinty look and makes them appear bigger. Try putting it in the inner rims of your eyes as well for a popping look. Keeping your eyebrows tweezed and groomed is essential to helping your eyes look bigger – this is especially true if you have naturally thick eyebrows. Doing so will make your eyes look bigger in comparison to your eyebrows, helping them look larger in general.

For Taylor’s brilliant eyes, try this: Prep your eyelids with some concealer and brush a candy colored eye shadow from lash line to brow bone – don’t be shy, with a light enough color it won’t look bad at all. Make sure to angle the end of the shadow at the outer edges of the brow line so that it looks like her look. After brushing on plenty of eye shadow, try some sparkly, colored eyeliner or just plain black eyeliner to trim your upper and lower lashes, being sure to bring it out and upward at the ends. Swipe on some mascara in black and maybe some sparkly powder over top and you’re done!

MASCARA: WHEN TO SAY GOODBYE!
MASCARA: WHEN TO SAY GOODBYE!
We all know that mascara can be a bit pricey, especially if you get it from a top of the line make-up department. Additionally, mascara can last a matter of months, even if we use it on a daily basis! However, there is some danger associated with using the same mascara for a long period of time. Generally, the rule of thumb for any opened bottle of mascara is to throw it out after three months. Bacteria can build up on the mascara brush, which can cause your eyes to become itchy and irritated. Additionally, you can also get eye infections from using old mascara!
It is important to remember that you should never share mascara! If someone else borrows your brush to coat their lashes, you may want to consider “gifting” it to them and buying yourself a new bottle. Germs from the eyes are easily transferred, and it may not be worth the risk when your health is involved.
The growth of bacteria isn’t the only problem that comes along with using an old bottle of mascara. Old mascara can become dried out, which will make it look clumpy when applied to your lashes. Because mascara is a relatively subtle makeup addition (especially when we already have eyeliner on) many of us don’t even realize that our mascara has dried out. Often times, you will be “applying” mascara only to realize after about a week that you have simply been brushing your eyelashes with a dried out mascara brush!
ACCELERATING BROWS AND LASHES FOR PERFECT MAKEUP
ACCELERATING BROWS AND LASHES FOR PERFECT MAKEUP
If you’re looking to repair eyelashes and brows which have over-tweezed or damaged due to bleaching, you may want to consider purchasing a serum which is designed to accelerate lash and brow growth. These serums are simple to use, and can greatly affect the overall look of your eyes.
The serums simply come in a mascara-like container. All you have to do is brush the invisible serum onto your eye lashes or brows, and simply wait while the effects begin to immediately take place. You will find that the serum will restore thickness to thinning hair. Additionally, the serum conditions the lashes which are weak and dry, which will give you a fresher look overall.
Eye lash and brow accelerators are the perfect tool to give you long, full, healthy looking eye brows and lashes. If you wear make-up daily, you may have noticed that consistent wearing of mascara tends to dry your lashes out. In order to offset this effect, many people turn to false eyelashes to give them a fuller overall eyelash. However, you won’t need to apply those pesky false lashes if you add the application of a brow and last accelerator into your daily make-up regiment. You fill find that this serum allows your lashes not only to grow back stronger, but they will be much longer!
Last and brow accelerators give you the option to naturally have a full eyebrow and lash. Furthermore, these accelerators are one of the best kept secrets amongst celebrities.
EYES OF MISTERY, DARK EYE LOOK
EYES OF MYSTERY, DARK EYE LOOK
There are many ways you can achieve a dark eyed look without looking like a Halloween victim. First, when going for a dark eye color, you want to remember to keep it above the eyelid. Normally, you don’t want to go for the smoky eye look when applying very dark eye shadow. Otherwise, you might come out looking a bit like a raccoon!
Two-toned eye shadows are very popular for those going for that dark-eyed look. You can simply apply a slightly lighter color as your base. Just brush this color into the entire area between the top eyelid and bottom of eyebrow. Then, you can use your darker shadow to create a dark-two toned effect which will have everybody staring.
If this look is still not dark enough for you, then you can simply apply some deep colored eye-liner. In addition to accentuating your eyes, dark eyeliner will contrast nicely with your eye shadow. You can choose to apply eyeliner from an eye pencil or you can apply it from an eyeliner pod. The pod liners, which are basically a version of liquid eyeliner, are applied using a tiny brush. This is the best way to apply extremely dark eyeliner. Be sure to let this dry well before applying any additional makeup to your face.
Lastly, you can top off your dark eye style with deep black mascara. Remember, mascara only lasts for about three months, after which you should buy a new one. It may seem like your mascara can last forever, but using an old mascara brush can be unsafe and unsanitary.
