The most expressive part of the face, no doubt, are the eyes, since in the first minutes of meeting the interlocutor’s gaze stops precisely at them. How to make eyes bigger and brighter? Numerous cosmetic products help with this, such as matching eyeshadows, mascaras, eyeliners and pencils. However, it is too tiring to apply make-up every day, in order to always look stunning. Not only does it take a couple of extra hours, but also the naturalness, which attracts better than any cosmetics today, suffers. How to make eyes bigger without makeup? There are also such methods. Read more in this article.

Life mode

It is no secret that large and radiant eyes shine with a natural brilliance from the fact that a person is healthy and happy. Therefore, an important criterion in order to make the eyes visually larger, and the look more open, is the observance of the correct "mode of life". It all starts with the daily routine, because entertaining thoughts and dreams give health and attractive depth to the look. You need to rest at least seven to eight hours a day, then constant lack of sleep will not make your eyes narrow slits. Bags under the eyes also visually narrow the look. Give up dancing until the morning on weekends, start getting enough sleep, and you will immediately feel that your eyes have radically freshened up.

The next piece of advice is a complete cessation of smoking and alcohol, since these addictions are so harmful to the body as a whole that an extinct look and a tired look are only small signals of how great the damage will be.

The main stage will be the establishment of your diet, fluid drinking regimen, as well as vigorous activity. Eat more vegetables and fruits, a kind of "rule of seven". If you eat up to seven vegetables and fruits a day, then in a month the body will be refreshed and vigorous, the body will feel the lightness lost before, and the eyes will become sparkling with health and fullness, visually becoming larger and more expressive. You should also drink enough fluids, at least two liters a day, but you should not drink too much at night in order to avoid puffiness under the eyes in the morning.

And, finally, include more outdoor activities in your life, and sit less at the computer, so your look will always be cheerful and rested, and your eyes will be brighter and larger, respectively.



Folk remedies

The best "folk remedy", which has already been tested even by scientists, is the complete rejection of cosmetics. A month without makeup returns the skin to its natural color, as the paint no longer spoils the tone, the cheeks acquire their own natural blush, and the eyes become larger due to the lack of tightness and constant emphasizing them with mascara or pencil.

At home, simply curling your eyelashes with a special brush or tweezers will also help visually give your eyes more volume. This practice will make the look more open and the eyes brighter.

The most ardent enemy of natural eye enlargement is also the sun. It ages the epidermis, and gives the skin around the eyes a wrinkled structure, which negatively affects the formation of a clear and direct look.

There are several rules:

  1. Dirty hands should never touch the skin! From this, its texture becomes rough, which clearly does not contribute to a beautiful and natural look.
  2. Herbal compresses. The best way to relieve fatigue from the eyes, and accordingly make them visually larger, is the usual decoction of chamomile. You need to wipe your eyes every day with a cotton swab dipped in a decoction.

  1. Ice Cube. An excellent folk remedy that returns freshness and vigor to the skin around the eyes, which means it makes the look visually larger.

  1. Light massage. Fine palpation and circular movements around the eyes every day will make the skin elastic, which will have a wonderful effect on the appearance of your eyes as a whole.

  1. Gymnastics for the eyes. Special exercises will keep the eye muscles in good shape, which means making the look deeper and clearer. The simple exercise itself is to mentally draw a figure eight lying on its side with your eyes. A kind of infinity sign, first from right to left, and then from left to right. Such daily exercises will also help you improve your visual acuity as well.

lenses

You can also enlarge your eyes without surgery with the help of lenses. To date, a huge number of young girls use lenses not only to correct their vision, but also in cases where it is necessary to visually expand their gaze and make their eyes bigger without any makeup and surgical interventions. When choosing lenses that visually enlarge the eyes, their diameter is important. 14.5mm is the most suitable lens standard used by actresses and models for photography and videography. A diameter of 14.7 and above makes the eyes completely doll-like. Such lenses are no longer suitable for wearing, but for a short babydoll-style photoset, because you can wear such lenses for no more than 6 hours. Photo below.

How to enlarge eyes:

Is it possible to visually make the eyes bigger?

If you are the owner of small eyes and really want to enlarge them, you should not resort to radical methods. You can visually enlarge your eyes with the help of the right makeup technique. This can be done in a variety of ways, using makeup products such as shadow, mascara and contour pencil and correcting the shape of the eyebrows. But, as with anything, the key is moderation. You should not get carried away too much, because otherwise, instead of a beautiful woman with big eyes, a rather vulgar lady will look at you from the mirror. - .

How to do it with shadows?

You can visually increase the size of the eyes with the help of matte shadows, which must be applied to the outer part, thereby lengthening the eye towards the temple. In this case, it is not necessary to cover the moving eyelid with shadows, and shadows of light shades should be applied to the space under the eyebrows. Eyelashes must be black. Small and deep-set eyes will help enhance light (pearl) shadows. Darken the space under the eyebrows, slightly softening the transition, with matte shadows.

How to make eyes bigger with mascara?

To visually enlarge small eyes, curling or lengthening mascara, which should have a rich black color, will help. If you cannot be attributed to lovers of this shade, take a dark brown brasmatik.

Using a special eyelash tinting technique, you can visually change the shape of the eyelids. The emphasis on the central part of the cilia will help to round the eyes. If you want your eyes to become almond-shaped, pay more attention to the hairs of the outer corner: apply mascara to this part of the eyelashes in several layers.

In addition, stylists use the following method to visually increase the size of the eyes - it is recommended to apply mascara only on the upper eyelashes. Under the lower ones, it is worth drawing a thin line of shadows of a light shade.

How to make eyes bigger with a pencil?

First you need to choose the right pencil color. It should be lighter than black and finely sharpened. With this pencil, it will not be difficult for you to draw a thin line at the very base of the eyelashes from above. You can apply both a continuous line and draw strokes, which can then be shaded to form a “haze”.

You can not draw a line beyond the growth of eyelashes. This will only reduce the size of your eyes.

If a line is drawn on the mucous membrane of the lower eyelid, then the size of the eye will also increase. Instead of white, you can use a light gray, silver or flesh-colored pencil.

How can color help make eyes stand out?

The selection of shades in cosmetics is also very important. The very first condition for increasing the size of the eyes with the help of shadows is the correct selection of tone. It should be in harmony with the color of the eyes. Only in this case success is guaranteed to you. For blue eyes, it is recommended to use gray mascara, for brown eyes - bronze, gray, purple and brown.

If you learn how to correctly apply the listed principles of makeup in practice, none of those around you will guess that by nature you are the owner of small eyes.

Big eyes are considered one of the standards of beauty, and in some cultures there is a belief that the eyes are a mirror through which the soul is reflected. Sometimes you want, at least for a short time, to acquire a charming look, without resorting to expensive operations to increase them. There are several painless and simple ways that will help the owners of medium and narrow eyes to expand them, and large ones, on the contrary, to emphasize, making them more expressive.

The methods are simple enough to resort to at home, but not durable. Accordingly, procedures must be performed regularly.

  1. Makeup for the eyes.
  2. Skin care.
  3. Magnifying contact lenses.
  4. Special glue.
  5. Facebook building or facial muscle training.

Eye makeup

How to enlarge your eyes? The look can be increased visually by cosmetics. There are several options that can be used independently or safely combined with each other. Little makeup tricks can change the shape of the eyes, making them bright and expressive.

It is important to choose the right base. To even out skin tone, use a makeup base, concealer, powder, BB cream, blush, which will also help hide natural skin imperfections.

Features of applying shadows

Properly applied shadows are the key to big beautiful eyes:

  • light shades emphasize and highlight the areas to which they were applied, while dark ones hide and reduce;
  • convex zones are covered with dark shadows and shaded, and sunken ones are light. The main feature of any beautiful makeup is the correct transition from one shade of shadows to another.

Usually, for a magnifying effect, light shadows are applied closer to the inner corners, while dark ones are applied to the outer ones. In this case, the transition should be smooth and imperceptible. To get this effect, you need to be able to shade the shadows correctly.

The second way to use shadows is to apply a light, shiny shade to the area under the eyebrow. Thus, the effect of open eyelids will be obtained, although the method is more suitable for evening than everyday use.

Pencil or eyeliner

As a standard, dark colors are used when summing up the eyelids: dark brown and black. So that the eyes do not seem narrow, the lines should be thin, and the eyeliner should lie only on the upper eyelid and along the very edge of the eyelashes.

Note! In stage make-up, to achieve the effect of large eyes, a method is often used when the eyeliner is applied just below the lash line.

At the inner corner of the eye, the line should be thin, and expand towards the edge. In addition, moving the arrow beyond the contour of the eyelid will change its shape and visually stretch it. You need to be very careful with the arrows, as in some cases they, on the contrary, visually narrow.

The second option is a narrow beginning of the line, a smooth expansion towards the middle of the eye and a narrowing towards its edge. Eyeliner should be thin, unobtrusive, and at the same time, quite noticeable.

For an additional effect of enlarging the eyes, you can use a light pencil. It can be either white or any other pale variant, combined with shadows.

The color is applied to the lower eyelid above the lash line, slightly going beyond the borders of the eye along the edges.

In order for the pencil eyeliner to be combined with the superimposed shadows, its contours need to be slightly shaded and made softer.

ink

Mascara should have the characteristics of lengthening the eyelashes and increasing volume. It is applied starting from the lash line on the upper eyelid, with the brush tilted towards the outer edge. The inner corner of the eyes can not be tinted, so as not to get the opposite effect. The layer should be even, and after application it is necessary to comb and twist the eyelashes, trying to direct the eyelashes from the outer part of the eye to the temples.

Lower eyelashes must be painted very carefully. One thin layer of mascara will be enough to shade the eyes.

Note! If your eyes cannot boast of lush natural eyelashes even with mascara, you can use false options or build them up.

Brows

Eyebrows play an important role in the correction of facial features. They must have the correct shape, and also be touched up if they are too light in themselves. Thick eyebrows, close to each other on the bridge of the nose or highlighted in black, will make the look harsh, sharp and repulsive.

Eyebrows set high from the eyes will help visually enlarge the eyes, but a thin thread of eyebrows will look ugly and old-fashioned, so you need to find a balance.

You can also increase the look by applying a light tone along the lower eyebrow growth line.

Skin care

How to quietly increase the eyes? The answer is very simple. The size of the eyes and the breadth of the gaze is affected by the condition of the skin. Puffiness of the eyelids, bruises under the eyes, swelling and redness will negatively affect the appearance and visually reduce the look. The reason may be:

  • stress;
  • long stay in front of the computer and eye strain;
  • allergies;
  • low-quality cosmetics;
  • alcohol abuse;
  • lack of sleep.

There are several ways to eliminate negative consequences.

So, swelling due to stress and lack of sleep is removed with the help of massage and special essential oils. If oil is not available, regular ice or frozen herbal tincture and tea compresses will do.

If the cause is cosmetics or any other allergy, then it is necessary to stop using makeup products, consult an allergist who will prescribe appropriate medications. Eliminating the cause of the allergic reaction will also help.

In case of eye fatigue due to overexertion and prolonged use of computers, it is necessary to consult an ophthalmologist who will help you choose the best eye drops.

It is worth paying attention to the correct position for sleeping, abandoning the abuse of alcohol and drinking a minimum amount of water before bedtime.

An additional means of improving the condition of the skin and strengthening it is the use of special face masks and creams with a rejuvenating and tightening effect.

Magnifying contact lenses

Great for people with all levels of vision. There are tinted lenses that completely cover the color of the eyes, transparent, with UV protection.

Note! Magnifying lenses from many brands are not meant to be read or worn for long periods of time. It is necessary to consult with specialists in advance and choose lenses that are suitable for curvature and size so as not to damage the eye.

Magnifying lenses are wider than usual, due to which they cover not only the iris, but also part of the sclera. Such lenses are called scleral lenses, and they enlarge the eye itself. Ordinary lenses can also cover and enlarge the iris. In addition, the lenses have several diameters, from a barely noticeable increase to a large one, due to which the eyes will appear larger, acquiring a puppet effect.

By purchasing colored lenses or with a pattern, you can not only enlarge your eyes, but also change their color. There are many shades that will block even the darkest iris. This applies primarily to Korean manufacturers who create lenses specifically for blocking black eyes. Thus, by purchasing several pairs of lenses, you can vary your own image depending on the occasion and mood.

Interesting to know! If you do not know how to enlarge the eyes of a man, then use this method or gymnastics for the eyes.

It must be remembered that the use of any lenses for a long time can damage the eyes. At a minimum, it is necessary to use moisturizing drops and good cosmetics that will not crumble.

Special glue

In the East (this is Japan, South Korea, China), where people naturally have narrow eyes, glue was created to give them an enlargement effect. Usually people with an Asian type of appearance or who have narrow eyes use this method. But even the owners of ordinary European facial features can resort to it by experimenting and choosing a convenient option.

For this procedure, you will need eyelid glue itself and a special slingshot stick, with which a crease is formed on the eyelid. First, it is tried on and a crease is created with a stick, then glue is applied to the upper eyelid and the crease is adjusted again until the desired effect is achieved.

The second similar option, how to enlarge the eyes without surgery, is to use adhesive strips and a slingshot stick in the same way.

Note! The procedure itself can be unpleasant, as well as all the time while the glue is on the eyelid.

Facebook building - how to enlarge your eyes with exercise

This is a set of exercises or, as it is also called, gymnastics to enlarge the eyes, aimed at tightening and smoothing the skin, rejuvenating the face, giving it the necessary shape. Exercises must be performed regularly, at least once a day, and for a long time to get the desired result.

Exercise #1

Put the middle fingers between the eyebrows above the bridge of the nose. The index fingers are placed at the outer corners of the eyes. The gaze should be directed towards the top of the head.

Strongly squint the lower eyelid up, while you should feel how the muscle beats on the outside of the eye. After that, while holding the squint, it is necessary to tightly squeeze the eyelids and tighten the buttocks, count to forty and relax.
