Tips For Using Makeup To Give Your Eyes A Wide-Awake Appearance
By MASIE O'TOOLE
Brighten Inner Corner
One of the easiest ways to bring a bit of brightness back to your eyes is by using a touch of a shimmery eyeshadow or highlighter in your inner corner.
This comes in handy when you’re trying to combat that sunken, sleep-deprived look. Just apply a shimmery eyeshadow that’s lighter than your skin tone directly to your inner corner.
Focus On Lashes
An easy way to make yourself look wide-awake is to focus on the lashes by going for something more rounded and bright, almost approaching a doe-eyed effect.
You’re going to want to focus on lengthening the lashes rather than adding volume, and separating them instead of adding drama as too much product can drag your eyes down.
Beige Or White Liner
A white or beige liner on the waterline can fake a more awake and wide-eyed look since these colors cover any redness and create the illusion that the eye is bigger than it is.
White can be used to add a dramatic effect, while beige looks a bit more natural. However, if you have sensitive eyes, it may be best to skip this step.
