Expert Small Eye Makeup Tips
Hello,
I have a large face with small eyes which are close together. Can you help me with the best technique to apply eye makeup that will make my eyes look larger and less narrow set, please? I am a redhead with fair skin.

You should start by concentrating on your brows. Shape them so they don't have the close-together appearance. Next, use a soft red-brown brow pencil or a taupe powder brow liner - don't make the mistake of going too dark with your brow color, as this looks very unnatural and will make your skin look paler. Use eye shadow on the upper outer half of the lid extending above the eye and under the brow. To offset the closeness of the eyes, start drawing the eye line on the upper lid away from the inner corner. Draw it up and out. Similarly, the lower line should not begin from the inner corner.
For your coloring, try a pale champagne for the entire lid and medium brown, kaki or plum for the crease and corner. Use brown/black eyeliner to define your eyes and smudge lightly. Finish with black mascara, making sure to use an eyelash curler first.

!Hi Lee,
One of the best things you can do to refresh your face is to use an exfoliator. It doesn’t even have to be an expensive one. Just head to your local drugstore and see what you find. If that proves to be too much, then just use a clean wash cloth (along with your face cleanser) for a bright new look!
As it pertains to makeup, consider using a rosy colored blush or a bronzer for an instant "pick me up". Thanks for the comment

The best way to wear eyeliner in a subtle fashion is to pick a neutral color, like black or brown. What you should do is take the eyeliner and just dot it along your lash line. After you do this, see how it looks, and if you like it, leave it alone. If you want to mix it up a bit, then smear the eyeliner using a q-tip or a soft brush. For more oomph, add a pale pink or white eye shadow across your eye. Good luck to you and we hope this helps!
