Grotere ogen

Step 1:

You will need

Step 2:

Get more space around your eye

Your eyebrows should be neat and tidy. If you thin them down slightly, you can get a little extra eye lid and a little more light to your eye.

Top tip: To keep unruly eyebrows in check, brush them into place with an old toothbrush with a little hairspray on it.

Step 3:

Eye Shadow

Apply a light colour all over the eye lid to brighten up the eye. Put a second layer from the lashes to the crease of your eye. Choose a colour that is soft and fairly neutral. A dark or bright colour can be overpowering and make the eyes look smaller.

If your eyes are set back, you can make them appear to come forward by using a slightly darker eye shadow in the crease of the eye. And blend it in to the lighter colour

Step 4:

Open the eyes with eyeliner

Use dark eyeliner along the upper eyelash line. Smudge it with your finger or a cotton bud, to blur the line of your eye.

If you're feeling adventurous you could try lining inside the lower lash line with white eyeliner. This will make the eye appear wider.

Step 5:

Curl your eyelashes

Open up your eyes by curling your eyelashes at the base, in the middle and at the ends to get an even curl.

Step 6:

Mascara

Apply some layers of mascara. Don't use any thickening or lengthening mascaras. The liquid in these is thicker and can make the eyes look heavy.

Concentrate the mascara from the middle to the outer corner of the eye. If they are deep set, then you can use them all over the lashes.

Handy Hint: Only use upward strokes on the top lashes, this will help to open up the eye.

Step 7:

Fake eyelashes

If you really want to open the eyes, you can try using fake eyelashes.
They aren't for everyone, but can look quite natural. Watch Video Jug 'How to use and apply fake eyelashes'. Apply them to your top eyelid. Make sure that they are trimmed to your eye width, and are not too long.
