Although glasses are a great accessory and a necessity, they can’t help but hide our eye makeup sometimes, making us look more tired behind those lenses. Here are a couple of tips on how to apply your makeup while keeping your glasses in mind!
- Keep your eyebrows groomed, because they help frame your face
- Conceal dark circles under your eyes, as glasses only emphasize them.
- Lean towards using waterproof products because they are less likely to flake you’re your glasses.
- Keep the eyeshadow colors neutral and avoid grey eyeshadow because glasses will have already cast a shadow on your face.
- Don’t line your lower lash line, it will make you look more tired. Avoid a lot of color underneath the lash line as well.
- Apply the lightest color in the inner corner of your eye and apply a brown eyeshadow into your crease to further frame the eyes.
- Blend, blend, blend!
- Line your upper lash line with a thick, solid line.
- Apply on your mascara, curling your lashes in order to prevent them from bumping into your lenses. Feel free to add some pink blush and lipgloss/lipstick after!
- Try on your glasses and see how everything looks!
