Eyeliner
Eyeliner is one of the greatest allies of women who want to do beautiful makeup and enhance their small eyes, but it can also be their biggest villain.
This is because, if you apply the pencil to the waterline, your eyes tend to shrink even more.
Therefore, the secret to enlarging small eyes with eyeliner or pencil is to apply it below the waterline, on the outside of the lower eyelid.
Still using eyeliner or eye pencil, make a thick cat-eye line, which will help to open your eyes even more and enhance your makeup.

Black mascara
The secret weapon of any powerful eye, without a shadow of a doubt, is black mascara.
If you have small eyes, use layers and layers of mascara on your upper lashes and one or two layers on your lower lashes.
To open your eyes even more, draw a black line below the lower lash line and blend.

Sombra
Avoid using shadows the same tone as your iris if you have small eyes.
The makeup tip for eyeshadows, in this case, is to use shades opposite to your eye color to draw more attention and expand your look.
That is, dark colors such as brown, black and graphite for blue and green eyes and light colors such as pink, lilac, beige, green and blue for brown and black eyes.
You can use the shadow both on the upper eyelid (one tone, or several tones, in gradient), or on the lower eyelid, over the eyeliner, which will prolong the duration of the makeup and make your eyes look much bigger.

Highlighter
If, in addition to being small, your eyes are deep-set, a great alternative is to use highlighter to lighten the darkest areas of your face, such as the dark circles.
Lightly apply the product over a layer of concealer one tone above your skin tone.
Also use an eye highlighter on the tear corner.

Playing with colors
Choosing the correct tone and order of the shadows is very important to enhance the look of those with small eyes.
The deeper the eyes, the more they ask for light colors.
If you want a black smokey look, don’t forget to leave the inner area of the mobile eyelid and the area below the eyebrow with light, illuminated tones.
