Beauty Guru – How To Make Close Set Eyes Appear Wider

Posted by , on March 11, 2010 at 4:46 pm

Since we’ve been staring at ourselves in the mirror since well, our mothers laid us on the floor underneath mirrored contraptions with dangling toys we know how to analyze our faces by now. We then grew a bit older and started applying makeup and began to struggle with learning how to hide our big noses, high foreheads or close-set eyes.

We of course had to call in some help on the matter so Pamela Taylor of Pamela Taylor Makeup Academy & Studio showed us how to use our favorite tool (makeup!) to make close-set eyes appear a bit wider. Follow the beauty tips below and let us know how you like the look!

Step 1: Apply a light colored cream based shimmery shadow to the eye lid to open the eye.

Step 2: With a granite grey eye shadow (either pencil or flat liner brush) Im going to line the eye from halfway across the eye working my way outward. Visually, its going to create width to the eye area. Never use liner in the inner first 3rd of the eye because it accentuates the closeness of the eye. If youre feeling bold, try extending the line softly past the end of the eye.
