Hooded Eyes

Do you have hooded eyes, also known as "bedroom eyes"? How can you make it stand out?

-Draw an imaginary line from the lower lash line (outer corner) up to your brow. Keep your eyeshadow above this imaginary line. Putting shadow below this line can make your eyes appear more droopy. If it will make it easier use sticky tape and just peel it off when your done.

-Apply a light eye shadow on your lid.


-Apply a light color under your brow, on the brow bone. You can use the same color as you put on your lid. Although I do prefer to use concealer under the brow or an Anastasia highlighting pencil than eyeshadow under brows. Using the shimmery colors under the brow can look dated.

-Apply a medium shade in your crease. if you can't see a crease then draw a fake one where you think it should be. Do this looking straight into the mirror. you want to be able to see this medium color blending up towards your highlight color (under the brow). You want this color to go all the way across the crease. from the outer corner to the inner corner.

-Take a deeper shade and use it only in the outer corner of the eye. Again looking straight in the mirror, so that when you open your eyes you can actually see the color. If applying eye liner use a thin line on top and use eyeshadow underneath your eyes.

*Optional: Use an eyelash curler to make the eyes pop even more and use a combination of mascaras. Concentrate more mascara in the center of the eye to open up the eyes. Right now, I am in love with Clinique High Length Mascara!
