Eyes are the most important and attractive feature in an individual, according to a survey from Fastlife. This comes as little surprise, seeing as the eyes are cited as the ‘window to the soul’. There’s no need to worry about making sure your eyes look their best, as with these simple tricks you can make them appear bigger in a matter of minutes.
Opt for light shades
2019 is the year of bright and bold eye color shades. However, creating the illusion of bigger eyes relies on light, pale shades, and a bit of shimmer. A highlighter with a slight shimmer under the brow will help to elongate the eye area.
Meanwhile, light, neutral shades of eyeshadow will help to complete the look. Pink and peach shades are usually the best at brightening the eye area, so make sure you’ve got a good selection of these shades in your makeup bag.
Banish your wrinkles
As you age, it’s normal for the skin around your eyes to get looser. This can make your eyes appear smaller than they actually are, so it’s worth using methods to tighten up the skin around this area. Eye creams designed to target wrinkles and containing retinoids, ascorbic acid, and hydroxy acids can benefit the eye region over time.
However, if you’re looking for a quicker fix, filler injected around the eye area can do just that. By temporarily plumping up the tear troughs, your eyes will look bigger and bolder in a matter of minutes. There’s no need to worry about the results quickly disappearing either, as this type of filler provides results for up to two years.
Big lashes are a must
Eyelashes make all the difference to the size of your eyes, and the best thing about them is that there are multiple ways to enlarge them. Curling your lashes and applying mascara on both the top and bottom lashes will make your eyes instantly pop. Alternatively, you can go bigger with a pair of false eyelashes and some eyeliner.
False lashes have been worn by women for more than 100 years, and you can use them to your advantage by first lining your upper lashes with eyeliner, and then applying false lashes just above your lash line.
These simple tricks can help to enhance the size of your eyes in an instant. By doing so, your eyes will look healthy, refreshed and younger. But best of all, you’ll benefit from greater confidence on the inside and out.
