Make-up tips: How to make your eyes look more sexy

The first step to making your eyes stand out and look more sexy is too determine what your eye shape and type is. Then, you can use make-up to make your eyes stand out and really get that sexy look. If you eyes seem to disappear when you smile wide or apply a lot of eyeliner, you have small eyes. If your eyes are the most prominent feature and show a lot of eyelid, you have large eyes. If your eyes are closer together, you have close-set eyes. If you don't have a visible crease in your eyelids when you look in a mirror, you have deep-set eyes. If your eyes are large, long, and turn up a little at the outer corners, you have almond eyes. Once you have determined your eyes shape and type, read on for tips to make your eyes stand out and look more sexy!

SMALL EYES
1) Choose an eyeliner shade in a lighter, more subtle color such as light gray. Line the outer third of the top eyelid and the outer third of the bottom eyelid only.
2) Buy a white eyeliner pencil and line the lower inner lid (right above the lower lashes)
3) use a pale, shimmery shade on the lids to make eyes really stand out. Sweep color on the eyelids to the crease and use whatever is left on your brush at the inner corner of your eye. Blend this color outward so that some of the color goes on the top lid and some goes on the bottom.
4) Don't use eye shadows in dark shades because darker colors make the eyes appear smaller.
5) Be sure to use an eyelash curler and mascara. Curling your eyelashes opens up the eye. To really make the curl set, apply mascara to top and bottom lashes before curling. When finished with mascara, then curl lashes. After you're done curling, apply a second coat of mascara to lashes.

LARGE EYES
1) Pick non-shimmery eye shadow colors like dark plum or burgundy. Place the shadow in the middle of the eyelid and blend it outward first and the inward. Stop right were the crease of your eyelid starts.
2) Line around your whole eye with a dark eyeliner pencil.
3) Minimize large eyes by lining the inner rim of the lower eyelid (above your lower lashes) with the same dark eye pencil you used on your upper eyelid.
4) Don't wear too many different eye shadow shades on the lid all at once.
5) Don't put mascara on your lower lashes or your eyes may look too big.

CLOSE-SET EYES
1) Start with a shimmery or flat color in a light shade. Brush the shadow on your lid by placing the color right about your top eyelashes and then blending it upwards to the eyebrows. Next,
