All about the Eyes

[Ms.Zoe]

How do you apply your eyeliner for your eyes?

I believe I have tried every type except the drama, luxe, feline, & Egyptian types, these types look dramatic, not for everyday looks but more for party looks.

I like classic and feline the most. I don't use liquid eyeliners because my eyes are sensitive. But I always envious of those that can.

For daily I usually do the "Double Up" look w/ a tiny wing at the end, starting half way in the middle for my top & bottom lids. When I go out I do the "Luxe" look but less and w/o putting liner on my inner eyes.

I normally do a basic or the classic. I put on too many eyeshadow color combos to do anything fancy with my eyeliner. I use gel liner.

I like that eye chart. it looks helpful and look to be a good eye guidance! thanks God, Im the Asian with double lids, so I dont struggle with monolids. But still, I don't wear eyeliner that much. Its beautiful, but I still suck at the perfect lining and it takes way too much time to get the even wings. lol

Since i hardly wear eyeshadows, i use the "smooth". I can never get a feline, one end up longer or it doesn't look even lol.

 

[Ms.Zoe]

Sometimes when I want my eyes to stand out more then I would apply eyeliner (the plastic pencil kind) on my bottom lids. I am right handed so applying eyeliner on my right eye is so easy, it is a struggle to do my left eye. And I could only close my right eye leaving my left eye open to work with my right eye, if I want my left eye to close that would mean the right eye would be closed too, no eyes open to apply eyeliner lol.

 

[Ncmeowmeow35]

Lol i'm the same way Ms.Zoe, plus my left eye sight is horrible so that makes it even more difficult! I would get like a perfect drawing once every 100 or so LOL.

@xodxo - I have double eyelids too. They are on both eyes & they are the parallel crease type (I just learned about this crease type today when I was reading about double eyelids info). What is your crease type?

@Ncmeowmeow35 - I hardly wear eyeshadow too. I wasted more q tips cotton swabs on fixing my left eye's eyeliner more than on my right eye's eyeliner. I am envious of people who could close either eye/wink. When I try to close either eye/wink, my whole face squint lol.

 

[Ms.Zoe]

What is the shape of your eyes?
 
Mine are almond eyes type.

I hardly use eyeshadow on my eyes & when I do, I do not have a technique/standard to follow, I just brush 2 colors of eyeshadow on & voila they are done .

A chart to use to beautify your eyes more.

This chart is way off. In determining the eyes' types, shapes are the keys not races because every person's eyes are unique.

I think mine is downturn eyes...I think lol. I have no idea all I know is I'M not monolids. I can never have pretty eyes cause I don't use mascaras at all so my lashes would not enhanced my eyes to its potential. I like collecting make up...I have boxes of them I just don't use them.

 

[xodxo]

haha I had to look up what a parallel crease is? 
 
Interestingly, my right eye is slightly tapered, while my left eye is a parallel crease. But overall, I'm still a double lid.
 

 

[Ms.Zoe]

@byebye - lol...I hardly use mascara, I use it only when time permits (I spend more time in picking out clothes to wear than on makeup lol), I am in the mood for it & for special occasions.

@xodxo - I thought you knew about it. Thanks for posting the photo hehe.

 

[Ms.Zoe]

@byebye - I forgot to comment more. If your eyes are not monolids then your eyes are doublelids or triple eyelids then hehe.

For me, I find applying mascara & curling my eyelashes are difficult than applying eyeliners onto my eyes because I would blink my eyes many times.

I wonder why makeup do not have expiration dates.

 

[byebye]

My eyes are so sensitive that the few times I did try them I end up having infections. So I just don't use them whatsoever not worth it for me.

I know mine is a double lids...it's obvious sometimes...

OK I got a question for you make ups expert ladies... I have a wedding to go soon and I don't wear make up at all... so here is my question...
 
I have round eyes and somewhat of a triple eyelids, and my lashes is a little fine, so I was wondering if it will help if I were to put some mascara on or do I eyeliner it? If so, what kind, and please cheap retail stuffs, because I probably will not wear it again until another blue moon comes up. HAHAHA
 
Oh I don't put anything else on my face beside moisturizer, so I'm not even sure if I should even put anything on my eyes, or just leave it the way it is.  Any help is appreciate it.  Thanks ladies!

 

[Ms.Zoe]

Hi Maya_Fantasy,
 
I really do not have much expertise on makeup but I would like to comment on your question . 
 
Since you have round eyes & somewhat of triple eyelids and your lashes are a little fine. I think a little makeup on will enhance/beautify your look more, especially if you will be taking lots of pictures at the wedding and weddings are events mostly everyone will want to look their best , a little makeup will help you look prettier .
 
I would do both, applying mascara (curl the eyelashes too) & applying eyeliner too. If you think it is too much makeup then do which ever you see your eyes need more. I have a good amount of eyelashes on both eyes but they are not dark, long & curl so when I go to special occasions & I know pictures will be taken I apply both mascara (curl my eyelashes too) & eyeliner. I would also apply a little bit of eyeshadow that match with the dress I am wearing. Depending on my moods & if I want my eyes to stand out more sometimes I would do eyeliner on my bottom eyelids too. I provided charts above, I think they will help you on putting makeup on your eyes except how to apply mascara & curl the eyelashes. 
 
I use Almay black liquid eyeliner & NYX from Nordstrom Rack retractable eye liner. I don't specifically use any brand for mascara and the eyelashes curling thing (hehe, not sure what it is called) since I hardly do mascara & curl my eyelashes but you could easily buy them at any retail store. 
 
The eyes are very important & the first things people tend to notice each other are the eyes, as people say they are the windows to the soul hehe so I think you should enhance/beautify them. Good luck & I wonder how your eyes will look if you decide to put makeup on them hehe .

  Thank you Ms.Zoe    But I'm trying to avoid make ups, I really can't stand all those things.  I just need something to help with my fine lashes. :yes:

  Now that's another wonderful ideas!  Quick and convenience, but I'm trying to avoid putting make ups on, so I'll see what I should do by then.  Thanks.
