Eye makeup can completely transform your look, but to truly enhance your beauty, you need to adapt it to your eye shape.
If you still don't know which one is your eye shape, here's a simple way to find it:

Identify your eye shape_.jpg

ALMOND EYES: considered to be the most versatile and suit almost every makeup look
how to improve:
-
enhance their natural shape with a slightly elongated eyeliner
-
use a soft smoky shadow to add depth
-darken the outer corner for a lifted effect
MUST-TRY:
thin cat-eye + warm brown eyeshadow

HOODED EYES:
if the skin above your crease folds over your eyelid
how to improve:
-
do a thin or smudged liner
-
apply matte shades above the crease to create an illusion of depth
-curl your lashes to open up your eyes
MUST-TRY: soft, smoky liner + volumized lashes for a lifted effect

DOWNTURNED EYES: if the outer corner of your eyes are lower than the inner corners
how to improve:
-
use eyeliner that flicks slightly upwards
-highlight the inner corners
-darken only the outer upper lash line for an instant eye-lift
MUST-TRY: kitten flick eyeliner + accentuated outer lashes

ROUND EYES
how to improve:
-
extend the eyeliner outward to elongate the shape
-blend darken shadows towards the outer corners for a more lifted effect
-avoid putting dark shadows in che center of the lid, as it makes the eyes appear rounder
MUST-TRY: horizontally blended soft smoky eye

This is pretty good advice, for downturned eyes there’s a certain eye makeup style that can make your eyes much more evened out,
But it takes quite a lot of practice and skill, you basically just connect the lowest point of ur lower lash line and make a inner corner liner look essentially making your lash line in the front lower which evens out your eye space, adding some brown eyeshadow on the edges after can make the look more appealing as well as a white eye stick in ur inner corners, but that’s kinda tricky for beginners
