Lee echoes this sentiment, emphasizing the importance of incorporating shimmer into your eye makeup routine. “Shimmer can be your best friend when trying to create the illusion of larger eyes,” she says. “A light, shimmery shadow on the inner corners and center of the lid can draw light to the eyes and make them appear bigger and more awake.”
Keep Your Eyeliner Subtle and Strategic
When it comes to eyeliner, less is more when trying to make your eyes appear larger. Lee recommends using a nude eyeliner on your waterline to create the illusion of bigger, brighter eyes. “A nude or white eyeliner on the lower waterline can instantly make your eyes look wider and more awake,” she explains. This simple trick can brighten up your eyes and make them appear larger without the harshness of a dark liner.
