-The Eye Guide-


                               Ever wonder what eye makeup is best for your eye type?
                             Or what type of eyes other then shape and color you have?



Lets start with the hooded eyes....

                 How can you tell you have hooded eyes?  Find a mirror stare straight into and if you can't see you eye lids than you eyes are hooded. Simple right.
                           
 Now if you have hooded eyes light colors are the last colors you would want to apply,light colored eye shadow makes your eyes puffier and more hooded looking. Very minimal eye color is the way to go,mascara and fake eyelashes are what help out hooded eyes.

      Eyes that are 'far apart'.  Do you think your eyes are to far apart?
You can make them appear closer together by emphasising you inner corner of your eye by using light eye shadow and darker eye shadow on the outer corner. That will give your eyes that illusion of being closer together.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Now I haven't forgotton the eyes that appear 'close together'.  You think you know what to do?
Yup you got it the oppisite of the eyes that are far apart. darker colors in the inner corner and lighter on the outer corner of your eyes. Also apply your mascara heavier on the outside corner of your lashes.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    Now last,but not least Small or Deep-Set Eyes.
            Your eyes are just to small you say to your self,but with some white creamy eye shadow on your inner corner of your eyelids it open them up. This technique is also very helpful if you have deep-set eyes.
Sometimes for deep-set eyes no eye shadow at all and just mascara is the perfect touch.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

  So do any of these match up with your eyes? Did you find out any helpful tips from your eye type section.

        Now your eye color and eye shadow,play around a little see what compliments your eyes best.
A helpful tip is use what contrasts your eyes.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
            Here are a few beauty tips:

 Drink lots of water,this is very helpful for your skin hair as well as your immune system. 6-8 glasses a day is how much the average human should drink daily.

         When applying foundation move your brush in a circular motion,to blend in your foundation.

                  Moisturize your face after washing it,to keep your skin supple,and youthful.

                                      Coconut oil is a great moisturizer for your lips.

Don't like the way your mascara wand looks on your lashes wash your hands (to ensure no bacteria gets into your eye.) and dry them,than rub some mascara onto your finger and then by using your finger as your wand apply your mascara with your finger. It won't seperate eye lashes like your wand and gives you a natural look.

Hi Blythe! I have a question about blogs, and I wanted to ask someone that had it, so I figured it didn't really matter what post I asked it on. I was wondering how you got the little pole at the bottom of your posts that say "Great", "Encouraging", "Dull", and so on. Thanks!
