Eye shape and application

[glamadelic]

How many of you apply your eye makeup according to the shape of your eyes? I never have. Does it really make any difference?

I found this website that shows ways for different types of eyes- My question is, what kind of eyes do I have?

The website is here and here's a photo of my eyes. One of my eyes seems to be a little more.. sunk in or something. I dunno.. like I guess my eyelid is smaller or something?

I am going to check out that site! Thanks I have always wondered that myself!

Thanks for posting! That's great info. I think I have round and deep set eyes. I wish they had some instructions for 'combo' eyes. LOL

Yes it makes a big difference!

we just learned about eye shapes in class this week, just like the website we learned how to fix eyes my makeup which made a big difference in order to get Almond shaped eyes.

I'm wondering do you have a better picture? your face is turned sideways so it's hard to tell (and without makeup).

I follow everything except the mascara part.

I would say they a bit wide apart but not much and the shape is almond but towards the end it looks like a turned down eye.

So cool. Thanks for posting.

I've also wondered what shape eye I have - wide, close, 'sunken', etc etc. Also, my right eye is a lil smaller than my left eye...so I have no idea what I would have to do...lol

Great info - thanks

I try..but I still cant get it right.

I would've thought almost everyone applies their makeup by eye shape.. Somethings make your eyes small, so you prob won't do it, others brighten and enlarge them so you will.. I def do.

i don't really think about my eye shape, i know they're deep set and almond(or at least that's what i think) but i think it's just about what works and what doesn't work for you. anyway, thanks for the link.

Thanks!

 

[KristinB]

Thank you. I am actually doing what they suggest.

 

[Lyndebe]

Thanks for the link. sort of looks like you fit into the vanishing lid category. my eyes are very round and I have been making the mistake of lining all around which makes them look rounder. I need to try to not connect the upper and lower lines at the corner. who knew...............

Your eyes are in between these two:

Almond Shaped Eyes

Small Eyes
