A lot of the time when us make up lovers apply eye makeup, we don't realize that what we are doing is actually making our eyes appear visually smaller than they really are! I have a few quick and easy tips to avoid these mistakes and to make your eyes not only pop but look bigger at the same time.
Light Colored Eyeliner
A lot of the time when we apply eyeliner, we usually go for dark colors to make our eye colors pop a little bit more. What most of us don't know is that applying dark eyeliner can cause our eyes to appear visually smaller than they actually are!
A very quick and easy way to make our eyes pop is to apply nude/white eyeliner to the lower lash line/waterline of our eyes. It is that simple! You can definitely still apply your favorite dark eyeliner on your lid with the white eyeliner on bottom. Make sure you only apply a subtle amount of white eyeliner because if you apply too much, it can look a bit awkward!

Watch Your Eyeliner Technique
Another tip that can avoid the effect of smaller eyes, is to watch the way you apply your eyeliner. Rather than applying your eyeliner all the way across your eye, try starting the liner mid way across your lash line. This will leave the inner corner bare of liner causing the eyes to have a tapered vibe. If you don't like the way that looks, you can just taper out the eyeliner, starting thin at your inner corner and growing thicker as you go across the eye. But, don't go too thick!

Hightlighting Your Inner Corner
Applying a light color to the inner corner of your eye, whether it be shimmery or matte, can give you the illusion of a wider eye. It helps the eyes widen and separate giving the effect of a bigger, more prominent eye.
