7 Beauty Tricks to Make Your Eyes Stand Out

October 24, 2019 / Posted by in Makeup & Hair

It’s time for beauty talk once again–something we love and know you do to! And for today’s article, we’re tackling a topic that we know a lot of brides-to-be are concerned about: how to make your eyes stand out. Yes, it’s true that Asian eyes tend to look so small and one thing we struggle with is accentuating our eyes. Don’t you want tantalizing eyes for your wedding day? We know you do, so we talked to some Hong Kong wedding makeup artists and they shared with us some tricks that you can surely take advantage of! Read on now to find out what they are.

 

(1) Use long, natural-looking lashes to open your eyes.

Without a doubt, longer and fuller lashes will open the eyes. However, makeup artist Yumi Yo recommends going for lashes that are also natural-looking. This way, your eyes will still stand out without looking overdone or unnatural.

 

(2) Don’t forget your lower lashes!

The hairs on your top lid are twice as full as your lower lash line. So make sure you don’t forget to put mascara on the lower lashes, too. She Makeup Studio made sure to add volume to Rachel’s bottom lashes for an extra fabulous look.
