The motif of this article is to help you with a few ways that would educate you with the requisites for great looking eyes. To begin with, there is often a saying that the best art is created when started on an empty canvass. Similarly, before starting off with the application of the liner, shadow and mascara, one needs to clean your face and eyes well from all sorts of previous touches. Cold water, cleanser, moisturizer; these three will help you get a fresh and clean canvass to work on.

The second step usually involves a primer on your lids. However, one can avoid that. It is applied up to brow bone and what it does is it actually makes the skin smoother and thereby allows the makeup to stay when you put it on.

You can apply them deep or light, depending upon your eyes. In case of small ones, you can make them look bigger by avoiding liner on the lower part.
