Make up for those who wear glasses

A mistake that many women who wear glasses make is to exaggerate the amount of eye makeup. Here are some tips that will enhance the eyes, even behind lens.

If you are nearsighted, your eyes appear smaller through the glasses. In this case it is better to opt for kohl eye shadow. Apply eye pencil and cream eye shadow shades along the upper and lower lashes, spread eye shadow over the eyelid in copper, rose or biscuit tones; and apply very black mascara: the effect is bigger eyes.
In contrast, farsighted eyes appear larger through the lens: in this case, choose the same eye shadows as above but don’t use a dark pencil and apply only a little mascara, this makes eyes appear smaller.
If you have green eyes, apply a charcoal pencil, fading it and mixing a little green. If you have brown eyes choose purple or burgundy eye shadow. For blue eyes try pink or amber eye shadow, fading it on the upper eyelid and under the eyebrows.
To highlight the look use mascara, but be careful to spread it evenly, remove any lumps and separate the lashes well.
