Sexy Smokey Eyes

June 24, 2008 5:38pm CST
I have small deep set eyes. It doesn't matter whether I like them alot, because obviously I just have to make do with what I've got. Sorry but I'm not about to rush off to get surgery to "perfect" my every flaw. Anyway, so I was wondering abou the smokey eye. Would it jazz up small eyes? Or would it just make them look smaller? What do you think? Also, what is the best way to execute a smokey eye, what your favorite technique?

I used to be a makeu artist and sometimes too much eyemakeup can make eyes look smaller. I would use a darker eyeliner for the bottom and no eyeliner for the top lid. In the inside corner of your eye dab a bit of sparkly white eyeshadow or powder. Use the same powder or shadow right under your eyebrow. This will highlight it. Depending on the color of your eyes you have a lot of choices. I have brown eyes. I use a sparly brown eyeshadow for the eyelid. For the crease of your eye use an even darker color to define your eyes. If I use brown eyeshadow I put an even darker color of brown in the crease. Then I put marcara on and use an eyelash curler. If you don't try anything else at least try the eyelash curler! They really open up the eyes. And by the way I am sure your eyes are pretty and not a "flaw" ! Good luck!
