Is it possible to change the shape of your eyes with makeup?

How to enlarge small eyes?

If a girl’s eyes are too small, then they can be visually made larger. To do this, you must adhere to a number of recommendations:

· For makeup you need to use shadows of light shades. Dark colors can only be applied above the crease of the eyelid. However, contrasting shades should not stand out too much, as this will make the makeup look unnatural.

· Light shadows should be applied under the eyebrows, which will give expressiveness to the eyes.

· But you should not use eyeliner for small eyes, as this will make them appear even smaller.

Correcting bulging eyes

Girls with bulging eyes often wonder how to change the shape of their eyes? After all, such a deficiency can lead to the development of various complexes. But you just need to transform it into dignity. For makeup, exclusively matte shadows are used. Preference must be given dark colors. A little light shadow is applied under the eyebrow to visually reduce the bulging eyelid.

Makeup artists advise lining your eyes with a pencil. Its color should match the shade of the shadows. But it is not advisable to use mascara. If you can’t do without it, then you need to take mascara in a brown or gray shade.

Change the shape of “oriental” eyes

Even girls with an oriental face type dream of changing their eye shape. As a rule, their eyes are very narrow, so they strive to make them rounder. Proper makeup will also help with this. First of all, you need to slightly bend your eyelashes upward. Arrows will help to visually enlarge your eyes. The eyeliner line should run along the entire upper eyelid. In addition, you need to highlight your eyebrows to distract from a flat eyelid.

Droopy eyes

The drooping eyelid makes the look appear gloomy and the eyes look too small. To fix this, you need to emphasize the lower eyelid. To do this, you can outline it with a dark colored pencil. Light shadows are applied to the corners of the eyes.

Thus, it is possible to correct the shape of the eyes without surgery. You just need to learn how to apply makeup correctly to correct some of the imperfections of your face.

In continuation of the previous article, let's consider general rules eye shape correction, only now for Asian women. To the owners Asian eye shape so-called “heavy eyelids” are characteristic, when the moving eyelid is almost invisible, and the crease line is located low, above the eyelash line. When applying shadows to eyes with such a cut, they resort to a slightly different technique than in the case of European ones. The main difference is that when Asian eye shape shadows on the upper eyelid are shaded not up to the crease line, but slightly higher, so that the darkened area above remains visible even with the eyes fully open.

To make Asian eyes look rounder,

Darken the strip around the eye with shadows, shading the shadows both on the lower and upper eyelids. As already mentioned, the shadows on the upper eyelid should be shaded upward beyond the crease. In the middle of the century, the band of shadows should expand somewhat. If you're doing your own makeup, don't forget to open your eyes often and check how far up the shadows are.

To make the Asian eye shape appear longer,

Apply shadow along the entire edge of the eye, and then blend from the outer edge up towards the temples. In this case, a smooth ascending line should appear on the upper eyelid. On the lower eyelid, start shading from the outer part of the eye and combine with the shaded shadows upper eyelid, as it shown on the picture. It is important that in the center of the eyelid the shadows are not shaded too high, otherwise instead of lengthening you will get the effect of round eyes.

To give Asian eyes an almond shape,

use intense, rich color. The shadows are applied to the edge of the lower eyelid from the lower eyelid growth line, and to part of the upper eyelid along the eyelash edge, and then shaded to the outer corner of the eye.

To make Asian eyes look deeper and bigger,

The color is applied along the lower line of the eye, and then along the growth line of the upper eyelashes and shaded upward, slightly above the crease of the eyelid. In this case, use shadows of the darkest color possible. To enhance the effect, draw a thick line along the lash line with a dark pencil or eyeliner on the moving upper eyelid. If you want your makeup to look more modest and suitable for, for example, school or office work, reduce the area covered by the shadows. Do not apply makeup to the inner corners of the eyes, under the lower lash line, and also do not shade the shadows on the upper eyelid too high - it is better to stop approximately at the border of the crease.

Cost of the procedure

Singaporei: Europeanization of the eastern eye shape

Blepharoplasty of Asian eyes among medical personnel is called "Singapore". With a request to visually enlarge and “open” your eyes to Asian clinics plastic surgery About 35% of women apply. Russia is a multinational country, so it is also characterized by the popularity of this operation among Eastern women.

Therefore, before deciding to correct Asian eye shape, you should pay attention to the experience and qualifications of the specialist. At the clinic of Dr. Oleg Banizh you can find a more “open” and expressive look. Our leading specialist, thanks to his aesthetic sense and talent, will make your image more perfect, without eradicating the zest, but, on the contrary, emphasizing the mystery and uniqueness of the oriental look.

Asian eyelids have certain features:

The supraorbital fold is weakly expressed or completely absent;
The upper eyelid has visual swelling and volume;
The inner corner of the eyes is framed by a specific skin fold - the epicanthus.

The main goal of "Singapore" is to eliminate sagging elements of the eyelids and form the upper skin fold. The combination of these effects allows you to make your eyes open and expressive. There are no specific indications for this operation. As practice shows, everyone resorts to it with an aesthetic need to change the typical Asian eye shape. We recommend you radical intervention in these cases:

Your palpebral fissure is too narrow;
The supraorbital fold (on the upper eyelid) is noticeably smoothed or completely absent.

Progress of the operation

The patient is given local anesthetic in combination with light sedative;
The doctor forms the supraorbital fold using double access, making incisions along the ciliary edge and 7-10 mm above;
Resects excess skin and adipose tissue;
The surgeon sequentially connects the incisions and secures them internal seam;
Next, a continuous one is applied;
The aesthetic surgeon proceeds to smooth the epicanthus, excising it down towards the bridge of the nose;
The final step is the elimination of fatty hernias in the lower eyelid.

The entire process will last from 30 minutes to 2 hours. The doctor will explain to you all the intricacies of the rehabilitation process and advise necessary medications and ointments. The sutures from the classic operation are removed 8-10 days after the operation.

Changing eye size

The broad concept of blepharoplasty includes two techniques: canthoplasty and canthopexy.

Canthoplasty is often used if the patient wishes to change the shape of the eyes and make them visually larger. During the operation, a small incision, about 1 cm long, is made in the fold above the upper eyelid. Through it, the doctor gains open access to the canthal tendon, which supports the corner of the eyelid. The surgeon pulls it in a new position, depending on your preferences regarding the result, and fixes it with special threads. Additionally, manipulations can be performed to excise excess skin in the lower eyelid area. May be deleted fatty hernias according to your wishes or specific indications. As a result of the operation, the shape of the eyes changes, they become larger, their shape acquires beautiful outlines, and the gaze becomes expressive.

Canthopexy is used mainly to achieve the opposite effect: narrowing of the palpebral fissure. The method is necessary for those whose lower eyelid sag significantly, forming an unattractive sad look with a very rounded eye shape. It is performed similarly to canthoplasty, but the tendon is in this case does not separate and does not take on a new, fixed position. Canthopexy is a less invasive technique, but at the same time, it can significantly change the shape and size of the eyes.

Meanwhile in Korea...

During the general struggle of European women with fatty hernias, Korean women again shocked the world community with a new fashionable trend. Now Asian girls are implanting special biopolymer gels under their skin to create the effect of “bags under the eyes.” According to Korean women, this feature is not a defect at all, but a highlight that emphasizes the expression of the eyes and maintains the state of a smile. Korean women claim that it is the bags under the eyes that make a person forever young, cheerful and perky. The working day of Korean aesthetic surgeons is now scheduled minute by minute, because the service has become more popular than!

This method involves the use of special eyelid glue. The procedure is simple, so it can be used at home. The adjustment is carried out using a stick shaped like a slingshot.

In just a few minutes you get the effect of open eyes, but it won't last long. Manufacturers guarantee that the result will last for at least a day, but in reality the configuration of the cut line will hold its shape for about four hours. And this is in case of purchase original product. There will be no such benefit from a fake.

The size of the eyes and the breadth of vision are also influenced by the condition of the skin of the eyelids. If there is swelling, dark circles, redness, then all this makes a negative impression. Therefore, you will have to fight them: cold compresses made from tea or herbs will relieve edema and swelling; redness may be a sign of an allergy to some cosmetic product, and dark circles usually appear from stress, lack of sleep and problems with internal organs, which is a good reason to see a doctor.

Exercises to enlarge your eyes

White eye shadow/pencil on the inner corner of the eye. Achieve effect big eyes possible by using shadows. Every little detail plays a role in this matter, so you should not neglect preparing your face for applying makeup and adjusting your eyebrow arch. A raised eyebrow visually opens the eye. And the applied base for the shadows will ensure high-quality coloring and long-lasting wear. When choosing shadows, preference should be given to light and shiny colors. A win-win option would be white, but the main thing is not to overdo it. Abundance will make you look stern and cold. It is recommended to complement white shadows pastel shades, matching the color of the iris. Makeup artists also advise using a technique that brightens the inner corner. The look will immediately become wide open and open. For whitening, use a pencil or eye shadow white. Cosmetics should be applied pointwise, followed by shading.

Curling your eyelashes is one way to make your eyes look bigger. Performed during the process of painting with ink. The brush should be applied several times in the same place with scrolling. At the same time, slightly close the upper eyelid. In addition, special curling irons are used for curling. Before dyeing, the eyelashes are treated for 10-15 seconds with a device. If necessary, the procedure can be repeated several times, the main thing is not to pull the forceps when shooting, so as not to damage the follicle and structure. The ingenuity of women never ceases to amaze in any matter. So different ones were invented for curling alternative ways: using a heated spoon, fingers, toothpicks, etc.
Correct arrows will give the eye shape the desired shape. The technique is simple, you just need to choose a good configuration so as not to create the opposite effect. Sometimes it is enough to draw a continuous line along the growth of eyelashes on the upper eyelid. Depending on the style of makeup used in the future, the line, starting from the middle, can be thickened. An excessively elongated arrow will narrow the eyes, which is completely undesirable for small eyes. Therefore, a short ponytail, slightly upturned, will be enough. It is recommended to design the lower eyelid with an arrow only in the outer corner. The line must be shaded to remove clear boundaries. You can also use dark shadows instead of a pencil. They will create the right one light effect darkening. The tail from the bottom arrow can be connected to the top line or, on the contrary, directed parallel without joining. This technique sometimes helps to significantly open up the look.
Staining the lower mucosa with a light pencil refers to a classic technique used both in daytime and in evening makeup. The light line merges with white of the eye and is perceived visually as an extension of the eye. The removed contour does not limit the size of the lower eyelid, and the highlighted design of the upper part attracts all attention to itself. In addition, the lightened line gives freshness and openness.
Color play of shadows involves applying dark shades to outer corners eyes, and closer to the inner ones, light colors are used. Shadows with shimmering particles will help enhance the effect, but they are more suitable for evening look. It is appropriate to use mother-of-pearl in daytime make-up. The chosen palette must match the color of the iris.
For eyeliner inner corner A metallic colored pencil will do. In combination with arrows drawn slightly above the level of eyelash growth, the look will become more open and the incision will be visually larger. A special feature of this method is the obligatory shading of the line.
Lush eyelashes tend to make your eyes look bigger. If they are naturally short and sparse, you can use overhead ones. Sometimes, to achieve the desired effect, it is enough to stick several bunches.
Dark circles reduce the incision under the eyes. In the case of small eyes, this will further worsen appearance. Therefore, you should use concealer in your makeup to correct the problem.
The eyebrow line for a small eye opening should be treated with bottom side . This will help raise your eyebrows and open your eyes.

There are many techniques for performing exercises aimed at enlarging the eyes. Among effective options– aerobics for the face by Carol Maggio. Her complex includes separate gymnastics for the eyes.

Regular use(preferably daily), requiring just a few minutes a day, will change the cut and make the look more open. True, he won't be fast. And there are enough contraindications for use.

The desired effect is obtained as a result of training certain muscle tissues, which become toned and tighten the skin. As a result, the sagging upper eyelid lifts, and the bags disappear from the lower eyelid.

Although the most common way to enlarge the eyes is with makeup, there are many other options that can help widen the shape of the eyes without makeup. One such option is surgical intervention. This effective solution problems, but not every girl decides to take such a step.

Next, less radical method is the use of lenses. If you choose deeper, richer tones, your eyes will appear larger. New to this industry are special lenses that enlarge the eyes. This depends on the diameter of the lens itself - the larger it is, the stronger the magnification effect.

But how this method affects vision has not yet been proven.

But there are also methods that are quite accessible to everyone, and they can be used at home.

Plastic surgery to enlarge the eyes is one of the options for performing blepharoplasty when it is necessary to change the parameters of the palpebral fissure. Changing the shape of the eyes, according to experts, is suitable for patients seeking to correct the shape of their eyes and give them expressiveness. The surgery uses two techniques called canthoplasty (eye enlargement) and canthopexy (creating “oriental” eyes).

Indications

There are some problems and conditions that are indications for eye surgery:

Mongoloid type of eye shape (the fold of the upper eyelid is swollen, the presence of epicanthus)
Narrowness of the palpebral fissure
Age-related changes in the eyelid area (upper eyelids droop over the eyes)
Presence of under-eye bags
Round and overly bulging eyes (“fish eyes”)
Asymmetry of the eye area
Availability of some congenital problems(eg partial cleft eyelid)
Deformities acquired after burns and trauma

Mongoloid type of eye shape

Contraindications

Some patients consult a doctor to change the shape and size of the palpebral fissure, but they may be denied this type of eyelid blepharoplasty if they have the following contraindications:

Pregnancy and lactation period
Presence of myopia
Insufficient level of corneal moisture (dry eye syndrome)
Chronic diseases in the acute stage
Increased intraocular pressure
Presence of hypertension
Impaired blood clotting
Cardiovascular diseases
Impairments and pathologies endocrine system(for example, diabetes)
Oncological diseases and neoplasms

Eyelid blepharoplasty is contraindicated in patients with dry eye syndrome.

Canthoplasty

How to change eye size? Within this surgery specialists change the shape of the eyes (they become more rounded), as well as the angle of the palpebral fissure. Canthoplasty can be performed in one of two ways: existing methods(depending on the angle they are working with) - internal (medial) or external (lateral).

Internal (medial) method

Experts say that the method is rarely used as an independent manipulation; it is mainly combined with eyelid blepharoplasty. The main goal is to dissect the “Mongolian” skin fold overhanging the inner canthus.

To create a “European” eye shape within modern surgery no need to apply long cuts, thereby reducing the likelihood of scars and cicatrices. If they do appear, after some time they can be eliminated with a laser beam.

Canthoplasty performed using the medial method takes on average about half an hour. Before the intervention is performed local anesthesia or general anesthesia(the choice is up to the doctor).

Canthoplasty methods

External (lateral) method

In this case, the change in the shape of the eyes occurs due to its lengthening and increasing the angle between the ocular commissures. The length of the incision does not exceed 2-5 millimeters, so the risk of scars and cicatrices is minimal.

During medical procedures, the canthal tendon is partially removed, while the tissues of the lower eyelid are attached to the orbital bone tissue. To hide such a defect, it is necessary to slightly stretch the conjunctiva and change the location. This may lead to drastic changes sensitivity, but no more than 15 days from the day of surgery.

The lateral canthoplasty method is performed on an outpatient or inpatient basis and takes from 1 to 2 hours, depending on the complexity and amount of work required.

You can learn more about how the Europeanization of the eye shape takes place in the video of plastic surgeon Ilyas Samatovich Beyskenov:

Canthopexy

There are patients who are interested in the question “how to make an Asian eye shape?” Canthopexy allows you to narrow the eyes and give them almond shape.

The operation is suitable for people with sagging lower eyelids. The technique of canthopexy is similar to that of canthoplasty, but in this case the tendon remains in place.

In most cases surgery performed under local anesthesia or general anesthesia(the choice of anesthesia is carried out according to the patient’s special indications). Average duration Canthopexy lasts from 1 to 2 hours.

Stages of work

How to change the shape of your eyes? To do this, you need to contact a plastic surgeon who will carry out the appropriate intervention step by step. The stages of medical work are as follows:

Preparation. The doctor uses a marker to mark the points where the eyelid incisions will be made, then the patient is given an IV to administer medications. The surgeon will monitor the condition of the operated patient through special monitors.
Anesthesia. The choice of pain relief (local, general) is selected by the doctor in advance (at least a day before the start of the manipulations). The main option is local anesthesia with sedation (the patient remains conscious, but is drowsy and does not feel pain)
Operation. It begins from the moment the anesthesia takes effect. Eyeball will be protected using a special transparent plastic shield. After the work, the shield is removed, the patient is given stitches and a special bandage to protect soft tissues and prevent the development of swelling
