Beauty is more than skin-deep. Beauty is unique grace and confidence, a shining light that sparkles through the eyes and smile. It's not what you look like; it's what you project.

Brighter Looking Big Eyes - Makeup Tutorial
Here is the Video.
The detailed instructions are below.
Materials
* White or Pearl Eyeliner
* I used Rimmel White Liner
Eyeshadows
* one light color and one silver
* I used Lancome Color Design
Suntouched Creme Lustre
Eyeshadow Brush
Liquid Eyeliner, Eyelash Curler and Black Mascara
1. I used Maybelline Ultra Liner
2. Shiseido Eyelash Curler
3. L'oreal Volumous Mascara
Alright lets get started!
1) Start out with a clean canvas (Concealer, Foundation and Powder on your face).
2) Take a white or pearl eyeliner, and line the lower rim of your eyes. Pearl eyeliner is less intense looking than white because it looks more natural, but for this I decided to use white so you can easily see the difference.
3) Take a Q-Tip and clean off any excess white eyeliner. They like to collect up on your lower lashes, but if you cannot get them all off do not fear, we can cover them with mascara.
4) use a light eyeshadow over your entire lid. This gives your eyes color. Also avoid dark colors because dark colors advance while light colors recede.
5) Then take a silver eyeshadow and apply it around your tear ducts. This helps brighten your undereyes.
6) Now take the same silver eyeshadow and apply it on your upper brow bone.
7) If you need to, this is a good time to shade in your eyebrows. A basic rule of thumb, 3 shades lighter for brunettes and 3 shades darker for blondes.
8) Line your eyes. Make sure the line is very thin. The look we are trying to achieve is a very bright clean look.
9) Take your eyelash curler and curl your lashes.
10) Take a business card, and use it to shield your eyelid. While shielding your eyelid, use the card and lift your lashes up. You should be able to see all your lashes in front of the card. Now take your mascara and coat your lashes.
I tend to use this technique when I want to coat all my lashes.
11) Now, here is where the magic happens. Many girls who use white eyeliner tend to not apply mascara on their bottom lashes. From what I have experienced, when you apply black mascara on your bottom lashes, this helps OPEN up your eyes.
Your eyes are like flowers, and you need to bring out every petal for it to look bigger and brighter
12) Sometimes, your mascara will mix with the white eyeliner, do not fear, that is why the Q-Tip was invented. So swab those nasty muddy suckers up!
