Shaping the eyes

Use a medium dark shade of shadow along side the bridge of the nose. Blend up toward inside of the eye brows. Apply eye liner and mascara heavier toward inside half of the eye. Thicken brow from the beginning of the brow to the arch to bring the eyes closer together. Deep set eyes

To bring out the lid and crease area: Apply a light colour to the eyelid and crease. Also apply a medium "skin tone" shade to the brow bone. Line against upper lashes with a bright eye liner pencil, and smudge lightly. Keep brows light and airy, so as to de-emphasize the heavy brow bone.

Close set & small eyes

To widen the area in between the eyes & make eyes appear larger: On the inside corners of the eyes and along side of the nose, apply a light highlight to widen the eyes. On the lower inner rim of the eye, apply a white pencil to make the eyes appear more open. On the outer corner, use a deep, intense shade, extending the colour past the corner of the eye. Tweeze the brows slightly farther apart than the inside corner of the eye. Extend brows slightly past the outer corner of the eyes.

Eye tricks

Avoid using eyeshadows on the brow bone that are too white, frosted, red or orange. Instead, use shades that look like they could double as tinted powder. Use a cake eyeliner for a crisp line that defines, yet still appears soft. Avoid liquid eyeliner as it can appear harsh.

Define and lift the brow by tweezing away stray hairs and by applying brow colour along the top of the brow. A brow powder is great for filling in the spaces of sparse brows. Use an angle brush to lighten the inside corner of the eye with a neutral shadow. Try stippling a little Vitamin E lip conditioner on 'crows' feet' at the corners of eyes.

Protruding lid

To diminish the lid: Apply a "deep shade" to the lid and a very light reflective shade to the brow bone. Use a dark shade of pencil inside the lower inner rim. And use a dark pencil to line against upper lashes, and smudge. Keep brows light and airy, so as to not overpower a small brow bone.
