Even if it’s not its only purpose, make-up has the function of highlighting and enhancing the facial features we want, as well as creating others that can harmonize the entire figure of the wearer’s face. Of course we know that make-up can be scenographic and cinematic and, in those cases, the story changes since the ultimate goal is no longer to embellish, but to completely change depending on the character played. However, these two concepts fit together perfectly in the field of makeup aimed at feeling more attractive and to improve features that do not fully satisfy us.
The theme of small eyes it’s much discussed, but it’s also sometimes a sore point for the people who have them. There is a belief, in fact, that big eyes are more attractive. Nothing more wrong. In fact, if valued in the right way, small eyes can be very deep and expressive! If you have small eyes and want to know some professional advice on how to do them, the advice is to take a look at the guide of Cillara Makeup on makeup for small eyes.
Round face and small eyes: green light to contouring!
If there is one make-up technique that has won the hearts of aficionados all over the world, it is contouring. It is simply a technique aimed at “sculpting the face” by creating a play of shadows that allows you to slightly change the features of the face. Thanks to this, what is small can become larger thanks to light colors, while what is large can become smaller thanks to the indentations created by dark colors. The general rule, therefore, translates into this way: it is possible to create dizzying cheekbones thanks to contouring and as for the eyes, light colors will be able to make them look bigger, highlighting their class and giving light to the face. People with particularly large eyes, on the other hand, will have to be careful not to overdo these colors, as they could give too much impact.
Small eyes: what are the rules for making it bigger?
A little while ago we mentioned that small eyes can be made up in a more particular way and without too much fear of looking excessive, thanks to their small size. The bright and satin eyeshadows with light shades, in fact, will not hesitate to greatly enhance the eye without making the make-up seem excessive or exclusively suitable for the evening and special occasions. The most suitable colors can be champagne, pink, beige, white, gold and silver. The mascara completes it by opening the eye like a fan, but beware with its distant cousin eyeliner: a dark line will only make the eye smaller and immediately give it a “closed” look. The eyeliner technique is not recommended just like that of excessively marked eyebrows and smoky eyes with dramatic and dark colors.
Ultimately, make-up teaches us that there are no ugly features, but only techniques and colors more or less suitable for a face.
