To increase the visual distance between the eyes, light shiny shadows should be applied to the corners of the eyes or highlighter.

Memo for eye color

Each eye color has its own shade tone. Someone will think - "this is all nonsense." If you use makeup incorrectly, then you are unlikely to make your eyes more expressive, rather the opposite.

  • Brown eyes - purple, lilac, matte and beige colors are suitable.
  • Blue eyes - yellow, pink, orange, pearlescent, beige and brown.
  • Gray eyes and gray-blue - almost all colors are suitable, even black.
  • Green eyes are green, pearlescent, brown and orange.
