Just as with the face, there are infinite types of corrections we can do for the eyes, to make them bigger or smaller, more together or apart. Keep reading because we’ll teach you step by step how to correct them and have a terrific look.

• Technique:

Just as with facial corrections, we use light and dark colors, remembering that the dark colors deepen and blend…

• Products to use:

The products to use could range from a white pencil, color cream, or a white shadow, to a black pencil or dark or black shadow.

You can also replace the black shadow for any other dark color that you like or that you feel like using, such as brown, purple, maroon, gray, etc. Just remember that if you are trying to deepen or blend a zone, the color has to be dark and matte. If you want to highlight or bring out an area, the tone should be light, bright and/or glossy.

 

LEARN TO MAKE UP EYES THAT ARE DEEP-SET OR SMALL.

If you have deep-set or small eyes, these are the steps to follow:

• Apply white pencil to the interior of the eyelid.

• Apply light and satiny shadows on the mobile eyelid, and slightly darken the upper lid in the area of the bone to delineate the shape.
