Eye makeup is a fundamental part of many people's beauty routine. However, each eye type requires a different approach to enhance your beauty in the best possible way.
Almond eyes:
Almond eyes are considered the ideal eye shape, as they have a slightly pointed shape at both ends and a visible space on the mobile eyelid. To enhance this shape, it is recommended to apply eye shadows in neutral tones and blend them outwards to create a soft smoky effect. In addition, a liquid eyeliner can be used to draw a thin line along the upper lash line to further enlarge the eyes.

Round eyes:
Round eyes tend to have a more open, youthful appearance. To visually lengthen the shape of the eyes, a dark shadow can be applied to the outer edge of the mobile eyelid and smudged upward and outward. It is also helpful to apply a dark eyeliner on the upper and lower lash line, but avoid completely lining the eyes so as not to visually close them.

Slanting or Asian eyes:
Slant eyes have an upward slanting shape at the outer corners. To balance this shape, a darker shade can be applied to the crease of the eyelid and blended upward and outward. Then, a lighter shade can be added on the mobile lid to open up the eyes. A liquid eyeliner can also help highlight the slanted shape of the eyes.

Sunken eyes:
Sunken eyes have a deeper, more defined look in the socket. To soften this look, a light-toned eye shadow can be applied all over the lid and blended upward. Then, a darker shade can be added in the crease of the eyelid to create depth. Eyeliner on the upper and lower lash line can help define the shape of the eyes.

Bulging eyes:
Bulging eyes have a more prominent, convex appearance. To visually minimize this shape, a dark shadow can be applied to the crease of the eyelid and blended upward. Then, a lighter shade can be applied to the mobile eyelid to create an illuminating effect. It is important to avoid applying eyeliner on the upper and lower lash line, as it can make the eyes look more prominent.

Hooded eyes:
Hooded eyes feature a pronounced crease that can make the mobile eyelid appear smaller. To open up the look, it is crucial to apply a darker eye shadow in the crease and blend it upward. Then, a lighter shade should be used on the mobile eyelid to brighten and enlarge the area. In addition, a liquid eyeliner applied near the upper lashes can help define the shape of the eye.

Separate eyes:
For separated eyes, makeup can help create the illusion of a closer distance between them. Apply a darker shade on the inner corner of the eyelid and blend outward. Avoid extending the eyeliner outward too much, as it can further widen the separation. Instead, line closer to the tear trough to visually bring the eyes closer together. Finish with several coats of mascara to open and define the eyes.

Eyes together:
For eyes together, it's important to create the illusion of visual separation. Apply a light shade on the mobile lid and a darker shade on the outer corner, blending outward. Avoid eyeliner on the inner waterline and focus on dark eyeliner on the outer edge of the upper and lower lashes. Use mascara on the outer lashes to open up the eyes. This method will help create a more separated and balanced eye effect.

Droopy eyes:
For droopy eyes, it is important to visually lift the look. It is recommended to apply a lighter shade on the mobile eyelid and a darker shade on the crease of the eyelid to create depth. Use a liquid eyeliner to draw a thin line on the upper lash line, with a slight upward wing to lift the eyes. Avoid applying eyeliner to the lower lash line to avoid accentuating the droopiness of the eyes.
