Almond-Shaped Eyes |
|
|
Apply lighter shade from lash to brow. Medium shade on lid. Dark shadow on outer third of lid. Generous coats of mascara for lashes, comb well. |
|
|
|
|
Close-Set Eyes |
|
|
Close-set eyes are often due to a slender nose. To create the illusion of width, apply colour wide. Start the shadow well away from eye's inner corner blending up and out with the more intense shade at outer limits. Line the outer half of the eye and then apply light shadow to inner corner. Blend. Apply Mascara on outer lashes only. |

|
Contouring |
|
|
Contouring uses makeup to create and enhance shape. Light shades bring features forward and dark shades recede. Contour darker colour in eye crease. Don't forget to blend. Using light and dark shades together helps create depth. |
|
|
|
|
|
Deep-Set Eyes |
|
|
Use light shade from lash to brow, deep set eyes can be brought out by placing a darker colour of shadow just above the natural crease. Use eye pencil or liner on both top and bottom of the eye, smudge to soften. Generous coats of mascara for all lashes, comb well. |

Dramatic Eye Make-Up |
|
|
Deep and contoured: Use contrasting eye shadows in deep, neutral shades; Try Colour Surge Eye Shadow Duos. Darker, wider, more pronounced eyeliner, drawn with a clearly defined edge, or smoked over with matching shadow. Quickliner for Eyes has staying power and completing the dramatic look. |

|
Eyeliner or Liquid Liner Application |
|
|
Apply liner as close to lashes as possible; smudge to avoid a harsh look, this helps balance shape. To make eyes look bigger or wide-set: Start mid-lid, extend liner just past the end of eye, blend upward. When using liquid liner, hold outer corner of lid taut and apply using quick short strokes. |
|
|
|
|
|
Eye Lines |
|
|
Slight crinkling around eyes. Start any camouflage work with Eye Treatment Products formulated for this area, as dry skin pulls moisture from the concealer. Use matt colours to avoid drawing attention to the lines. Choose very subtle, natural looking shades. |
|
|
|
|
|
Eye Puffs |
|
|
Prepare eye area by using All About Eyes. Smooth eye puffs by blending a slightly lighter coloured concealer in the furrow directly below the puff to visually raise the area. Then apply a slightly darker shade directly on the puff to make it recede. Tap and roll colours together very gently. Set with powder. |

Eyelash Curling |
|
|
An often-overlooked way to open eyes. Carefully insert clean lashes into eyelash curler. Apply pressure in light little squeezes along the length of lashes. Remove. Apply Lash Curling Mascara for definition and long-lasting curl. (Avoid if you are allergic to rubber). |
|

|
Eyeliner Fade-Out |
|
|
To delay liner fade: Line as usual. Set with like-coloured powder eye shadow. For longest wear, line with Quickliner for Eyes. |
|
|
|
|
|
Deep-set Eyeliner |
|
|
A soft, eye-emphasising effect. Apply eye pencil or liner in short feathery strokes from each lash. Immediately blend over with a cotton bud to avoid a harsh look or use Quick Eyes for dual-blending and smudging benefits. Follow with matching powder shadow to set. |

Fine, Dry Lines |
|
|
Fine, dry lines around eyes can signal sun damage, not just aging. Suggestions: prescription glasses and sunglasses with UV-filtering lenses, sun block always, and an everyday cream or gel formulated for the delicate eye area. Use All About Eyes or Advanced Stop Signs Eye Preventive Cream to smooth away lines. |

|
|
Highlighting |
|
|
Highlight browbone to bring brightness to eyes, accent shape. Place colour under brow arch, blend outward. There should never be an obvious pale area, just a suggestion of light. |
|
|
|
|
|
Mascara Smudges |
|
|
Apply all eye makeup and mascara before foundation and concealer so that you can clear up any smudges and don't have to start entirely over. |
|
|
|
|
|
Mascara Clumping |
|
|
Usually caused by out-of-date mascara, a mascara formula that is not right for your lashes, or mascara build-up. Date your mascara tube and replace every three months. |
