Big eyes are some of the most intensely beautiful eyes you will ever see. A few celebrities who have big eyes include Zooey Deschanel, Christina Ricci and Amanda Seyfried. If you have eyes like this too, then you know what a struggle it can be to apply eye makeup. Not all makeup techniques work with big eyes.  Here are a few tips to enhance your big beautiful eyes.

• If your big eyes are set closer together, less than an eye’s width apart, use light eye shadows on the inner corners of the eyes and use dark shades on the outer corners of the eyes. Not only will they enhance your big beautiful eyes, but they will create a balance and make eyes appear a little more evenly spaced apart.
  
  
• If your big eyes are set far apart, more than an eye’s width apart, you should avoid shimmery eye shadow or your eyes will appear even farther apart. Instead, opt for the matte shades of eye shadow and focus the darker eye shadow shades on the inner corners of the eyes. This will bring harmony to your features and make it seem like your eyes are more evenly spaced apart.
  
  
• If your big eyes are real round, line only the top lashes and flick the liner up at the outer corners of the eyes. This will make eyes appear more elongated.
  
  
• Avoid using light or shimmery eye shadows all over the lid, because they make big eyes appear even bigger. Instead, use darker eye shadows and line your lower waterlines.
  
  
• Make sure to highlight your inner corners and brow bone.
  
  
• Apply mascara on both the upper and lower lashes.
  
  
• To really add emphasis, consider having false lashes or lash extensions applied to both upper and lower lash lines.
