Asian eye makeup tips?

Does anyone know any good asian eye makeup tips??


Whenever i use eyeliner, i can only put it on the bottom half of my eye and when i try to put it on the top it looks weird cos i don't have double eye-lids. and that's only the eyeliner trouble... don't get me started on the eye shadow for non double eyelids.


thanks in advance ;DAsian eye makeup tips?
i have hooded eyes aswell (thanks to asian blood in the family) and they can be a pain in the butt with eye shadow. i love using liquid liner on the top it doesnt smudge into the crease and you can flick it out and really accentuate the long eye. with my eye shadow i like having a bright colour on top coz when you blink u get a little flash of the colour!Asian eye makeup tips?

The first step to working with Asian lashes is to curl them since they're typically straight.





For single eyelids try this:





Receding eyes tend to be on the puffy side, too. So, picking out eye shadows on the reddish-brown shades are almost a must-have. It鈥檚 dark enough to create a deeper look and mask the puffiness. However, you should be careful not to choose really dark eye shadows cuz these tend to make the eyes even smaller. It鈥檚 really advisable to go for ones on the brown shade that鈥檚 not too dark and avoid black eye shadows.





Application: Trace a line across the upper eyelid. Trick is to blend upward and outward.





I know you would want to venture into colours on occasion. You鈥檒l be surprised with just how many shades you can actually use. If you want to be a little adventurous, trying the ruby red eye shadow that鈥檚 a definite eye-catcher.





Application: Simply apply a soft red line across your upper eyelid. No blending required cuz it鈥檚 the line that you want. Note that you shouldn鈥檛 apply red over the entire upper eyelid or below the eyes.





For puffy eyelids, drop the frosted or glittery eye shadows. Perhaps you can experiment on one with a slight shimmer but that鈥檚 it. Reason is cuz it鈥檒l only put emphasis on eyelids. What we are trying to achieve is to tone it down, yea?





Then comes the highlighting part. We want to create a bit of depth by focusing on the brow bone area. A pale eye shadow or white can do the job. Apply the eye shadow from the arch of your eyebrow, along the brow bone, outwards. This will highlight that area, leaving the lid with darker eye shadow looking deeper than it really is.





For a finishing touch, apply mascara on the lower lashes first cuz it鈥檚 easier then apply several coats to achieve a thicker lash. Use a lash curler to create a more lengthier lash. Thick lashes help make eyes look wider.





Have fun!
