TIPS FOR A PERFECT CORRECTIVE MAKEUP

Let's now analyze all the steps to give you useful and practical tips that will help you in the realization of the bulging and round eye makeup. With some suggestions also on choosing the right products and methods of application .

PULLING EYES MAKEUP: WHERE TO APPLY THE EYESHADOW

Ball eyes need depth: for this reason, an eyeshadow of a light shade but slightly darker than the natural skin tone is applied to the mobile eyelid. You can use a nude, beige or matte brown eyeshadow : the important thing is that they are matte eyeshadows , because this finish tends to make the eye smaller than the pearly, shimmer and metallic finishes which, instead, enlarge the eye. Using a flat cat's tongue brush helps you to press the color well onto the eyelid.

Then we proceed with the use of a dark eyeshadow, to be spread outwards to create a beautiful shade and an elongated 'cat' shape to the eye. You need a small blending brush, in order to be precise with the blending and not create color spots. It is essential to try not to follow the shape of the eye, otherwise instead of correcting the eye we will highlight its rounded and protruding shape.

PULL EYE MAKEUP: CORRECT SHAPE WITH PENCIL

The biggest ally of women with bulging eyes? The eye pencil , because it allows you to make the eye more elongated. For a corrective make-up for protruding eyes you need a pencil with a very soft and blendable lead , of a rather dark color: excellent if in black, deep brown, burgundy, purple or blue , depending on your taste.

With the pencil we make a line at the upper lash line, thinner in the inner corner and more full-bodied in the outer one, then we proceed with a line in the lower lash line , whose stroke joins externally with the upper one creating a optical illusion of elongated eye.

The pencil strokes must then be blended with a brush, to make the effect softer and more natural. To make the eye more beautiful and magnetic  , the pencil should also be used inside the eye. To fix the black pencil, emphasize it and blend it, we pass a dark color eyeshadow on the line.

MAKEUP FOR PULL EYES: THE EYELINER

The black pencil made on the upper lash line can be emphasized by a nice line of eyeliner. The ideal shape for this type of eye is the glamorous eyeliner , that is the classic 50s eyeliner, which starts thinner at the inner corner of the eye to thicken towards the outside. The eyeliner allows you to visually decrease the width of the eye and make the upper eyelid smaller. It is essential to make a long tail: in this way the eye is more cat-like, elongated, and this is fundamental for a round and drooping eye make-up.

MAKEUP FOR PULL EYES: HOW TO APPLY MASCARA

The application of mascara is essential in this type of make-up: you need to focus on the external part of the eye , which must be privileged with movements that allow you to comb the lashes outwards, for a truly elongated and sensual effect.

For this type of eye it is recommended to apply mascara only on the upper lashes , so as not to open the gaze too much: if we are making a protruding and downward eye make-up, thanks to mascara we can be able to lift the gaze! The eye is enhanced with the application of mascara, which makes the gaze deeper and the eye less prominent.

PULL EYES MAKEUP: MAKE SMOKEY EYES

The smokey eyes is the perfect makeup for bulging eyes: dark colors, in fact, manage to correct the shape of the eye ball.

What is the secret to making perfect smokey eyes? Prepare a right base and make a nice shade. To make the colors more saturated, a greasy base (primer, dark pencil) must be applied to the eye before proceeding with the drafting of the eyeshadows: this step makes the eyeshadow more vivid, allowing you to blend it more easily and prolonging its duration.

As for the application of the eyeshadow, it is necessary to apply an opaque transition color in the crease of the eye and then proceed with the application of the color on the entire mobile eyelid , blending the colors well where they meet. To get a cat eye effect, you need to slightly blend the color towards the outside, to elongate the eye more.
