Determining your eye shape is easy – all you need is a mirror and a few minutes to spare! Look for the different features that determine if you have double or lined eyelids, slanted or slanted eyes, round or almond shaped eyes, eyes that are close or far apart, bulging or deep. Any eye shape is beautiful, and once you know your eye shape, you can find ways to use makeup to accentuate your natural eye shape.
Steps
Consider different characteristics
{“smallUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images_en/thumb/3/3b/Determine-Eye-Shape-Step-1-Version-2.jpg/v4-460px-Determine-Eye-Shape- Step-1-Version-2.jpg”,”bigUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images/thumb/3/3b/Determine-Eye-Shape-Step-1-Version-2.jpg/ v4-728px-Determine-Eye-Shape-Step-1-Version-2.jpg”,”smallWidth”:460,”smallHeight”:345,”bigWidth”:728,”bigHeight”:546,”licensing”:” <div class=”mw-parser-output”></div>”}
Know that you have monolids if there are no creases on your eyelids. If you’re not sure, check your eyes in the mirror. Find the crease in the middle of the upper eyelid. If you don’t see a crease, you have monolids. Your eyelids may also be flatter and your brow bone less prominent than those with creases on your eyelids. [1] X Research Source
- Monolids are most common in people of Asian descent.
{“smallUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images_en/thumb/6/69/Determine-Eye-Shape-Step-2-Version-2.jpg/v4-460px-Determine-Eye-Shape- Step-2-Version-2.jpg”,”bigUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images/thumb/6/69/Determine-Eye-Shape-Step-2-Version-2.jpg/ v4-728px-Determine-Eye-Shape-Step-2-Version-2.jpg”,”smallWidth”:460,”smallHeight”:345,”bigWidth”:728,”bigHeight”:546,”licensing”:” <div class=”mw-parser-output”></div>”}
Find out if you have lined eyelids. Under-eyelids have the skin on the upper eyelids that droop over the creases, making the eyes appear smaller. If you can’t see the crease when you open your eyes, your eyes have lining. [2] X Research Source
- Many people are born with lined eyelids, but many people have lower eyelids as they age. [3] X Research Sources
{“smallUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images_en/thumb/9/9b/Determine-Eye-Shape-Step-3-Version-2.jpg/v4-460px-Determine-Eye-Shape- Step-3-Version-2.jpg”,”bigUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images/thumb/9/9b/Determine-Eye-Shape-Step-3-Version-2.jpg/ v4-728px-Determine-Eye-Shape-Step-3-Version-2.jpg”,”smallWidth”:460,”smallHeight”:345,”bigWidth”:728,”bigHeight”:546,”licensing”:” <div class=”mw-parser-output”></div>”}
Observe the slope of your eyes to see if you have slanted or slanted eyes. Imagine a straight line running horizontally between the eyes. See if the bottom of your eye is above or below that line. [4] X Research Sources
- If the tail is above this imaginary line, you have “slanted” eyes.
- If the bottom of the eye is below that line, your eyes are “dropped” eyes.
{“smallUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images_en/thumb/e/ee/Determine-Eye-Shape-Step-4-Version-2.jpg/v4-460px-Determine-Eye-Shape- Step-4-Version-2.jpg”,”bigUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images/thumb/e/ee/Determine-Eye-Shape-Step-4-Version-2.jpg/ v4-728px-Determine-Eye-Shape-Step-4-Version-2.jpg”,”smallWidth”:460,”smallHeight”:345,”bigWidth”:728,”bigHeight”:546,”licensing”:” <div class=”mw-parser-output”></div>”}
Identify the almond-shaped eye if you can’t see the white around the yolk. Look in the mirror and relax your eyes. Almond eyes are eyes that have a small portion above and below the black rim hidden under the eyelid. Almond eyes are usually oval in shape with a narrow eye angle. [5] X Research Sources
- The tail of the almond eyes may be slightly slanted. [6] X Research Source
{“smallUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images_en/thumb/2/28/Determine-Eye-Shape-Step-5-Version-2.jpg/v4-460px-Determine-Eye-Shape- Step-5-Version-2.jpg”,”bigUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images/thumb/2/28/Determine-Eye-Shape-Step-5-Version-2.jpg/ v4-728px-Determine-Eye-Shape-Step-5-Version-2.jpg”,”smallWidth”:460,”smallHeight”:345,”bigWidth”:728,”bigHeight”:546,”licensing”:” <div class=”mw-parser-output”></div>”}
Know that you have round eyes if you can see the white underneath the black. Look in the mirror and look straight ahead. If you can see a little white above and below the yolk, you have “round” eyes. Round eyes do not taper like almond eyes and appear wider. [7] X Research Sources
- Although the white space below the black is not much, even as a thin line, it is still considered a round eye.
{“smallUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images_en/thumb/2/2d/Determine-Eye-Shape-Step-6-Version-2.jpg/v4-460px-Determine-Eye-Shape- Step-6-Version-2.jpg”,”bigUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images/thumb/2/2d/Determine-Eye-Shape-Step-6-Version-2.jpg/ v4-728px-Determine-Eye-Shape-Step-6-Version-2.jpg”,”smallWidth”:460,”smallHeight”:345,”bigWidth”:728,”bigHeight”:546,”licensing”:” <div class=”mw-parser-output”></div>”}
Measure the distance between your eyes to determine if your eyes are close together or your eyes are far apart. Measure the length of one eye with your thumb and forefinger, then measure the space between the eyes. If the distance between the eyes is shorter than the length of the eyes, if the distance between the eyes is greater than the length of the eyes, then you have eyes that are far apart. [8] X Research Sources
- You have a balanced eye distance if the distance between your eyes is equal to your eye length.
{“smallUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images_en/thumb/c/ca/Determine-Eye-Shape-Step-7-Version-2.jpg/v4-460px-Determine-Eye-Shape- Step-7-Version-2.jpg”,”bigUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images/thumb/c/ca/Determine-Eye-Shape-Step-7-Version-2.jpg/ v4-728px-Determine-Eye-Shape-Step-7-Version-2.jpg”,”smallWidth”:460,”smallHeight”:345,”bigWidth”:728,”bigHeight”:546,”licensing”:” <div class=”mw-parser-output”></div>”}
Look at the depth of your eyes to determine if you have deep or bulging eyes. Deep eyes are eyes that are located deeper in the eye socket, making the upper eyelid appear short and small. In contrast, bulging eyes protrude higher towards the upper lash line. [9] X Research Source
- Monolid eyes are usually not deep.
- Deep eyes make the brow bone appear larger, simply because the eye drops deeper into the eye socket. [10] X Research Source
{“smallUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images_en/thumb/6/6a/Determine-Eye-Shape-Step-8-Version-2.jpg/v4-460px-Determine-Eye-Shape- Step-8-Version-2.jpg”,”bigUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images/thumb/6/6a/Determine-Eye-Shape-Step-8-Version-2.jpg/ v4-728px-Determine-Eye-Shape-Step-8-Version-2.jpg”,”smallWidth”:460,”smallHeight”:345,”bigWidth”:728,”bigHeight”:546,”licensing”:” <div class=”mw-parser-output”></div>”}
Compare eye size with nose and mouth for eye size. “Medium” eyes are about the same size as the nose and mouth or slightly smaller. If your eyes are much smaller, you have small eyes. You have large eyes if your eyes are larger than other facial features. [11] X Research Source
- It is normal for many people to have one eye slightly larger than the other.
Eye makeup that suits your eye shape
{“smallUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images_en/thumb/f/fd/Determine-Eye-Shape-Step-9-Version-2.jpg/v4-460px-Determine-Eye-Shape- Step-9-Version-2.jpg”,”bigUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images/thumb/f/fd/Determine-Eye-Shape-Step-9-Version-2.jpg/ v4-728px-Determine-Eye-Shape-Step-9-Version-2.jpg”,”smallWidth”:460,”smallHeight”:345,”bigWidth”:728,”bigHeight”:546,”licensing”:” <div class=”mw-parser-output”></div>”}
Gradient eyeshadow for monolid eyes. Apply a little primer on the upper eyelid before applying eyeshadow. Apply a darker shade near the lash line, a neutral color in the middle, and a lighter shade near the brow. Open your eyes when applying eyeshadow to see what the eyes will look like. [12] X Research Source
- Wings or cat eye rims look great with monolids too.
- You can also draw a floating eyeliner on the lid instead of at the lash line. [13] X Research Source
{“smallUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images_en/thumb/b/bc/Determine-Eye-Shape-Step-10-Version-2.jpg/v4-460px-Determine-Eye-Shape- Step-10-Version-2.jpg”,”bigUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images/thumb/b/bc/Determine-Eye-Shape-Step-10-Version-2.jpg/ v4-728px-Determine-Eye-Shape-Step-10-Version-2.jpg”,”smallWidth”:460,”smallHeight”:345,”bigWidth”:728,”bigHeight”:546,”licensing”:” <div class=”mw-parser-output”></div>”}
Apply eyeshadow that extends past the crease if it’s a liner. Before applying eyeshadow, apply a light-colored eye primer or concealer to your eyelids. Next, use a medium-dark eyeshadow from the lash line to the lower lid of the eye, above the crease. Apply long shadow at the corners of the eyes, creating a winged eye shape to make the eyes look bigger. [14] X Research Source
- Use kohl eyeliner to make your upper lashes thicker.
- Winged eyeliner doesn’t always work with liner lashes, as the lids can be hidden under drooping eyelids. [15] X Research Source
{“smallUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images_en/thumb/c/c5/Determine-Eye-Shape-Step-11-Version-2.jpg/v4-460px-Determine-Eye-Shape- Step-11-Version-2.jpg”,”bigUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images/thumb/c/c5/Determine-Eye-Shape-Step-11-Version-2.jpg/ v4-728px-Determine-Eye-Shape-Step-11-Version-2.jpg”,”smallWidth”:460,”smallHeight”:345,”bigWidth”:728,”bigHeight”:546,”licensing”:” <div class=”mw-parser-output”></div>”}
Emphasize the slope of the slanted eye with a smoky eye. Apply an eyeshadow primer first if you want your eyeshadow to last all day. Next, apply a light eyeshadow on the inner half of the eyelid and a medium shade on the outer half. Blend the two colors together in the middle, so you have a smoky eye look. [16] X Research Source
- Use dark eyeliner on both the top and bottom of the eyes.
{“smallUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images_en/thumb/6/66/Determine-Eye-Shape-Step-12-Version-2.jpg/v4-460px-Determine-Eye-Shape- Step-12-Version-2.jpg”,”bigUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images/thumb/6/66/Determine-Eye-Shape-Step-12-Version-2.jpg/ v4-728px-Determine-Eye-Shape-Step-12-Version-2.jpg”,”smallWidth”:460,”smallHeight”:345,”bigWidth”:728,”bigHeight”:546,”licensing”:” <div class=”mw-parser-output”></div>”}
Try cat eyeliner for droopy eyes. You can apply many eyeliner techniques for slanting eyes, but with drooping eyes, the cat eye style will help beautify the tail. Use a dark eyeliner to line the upper lash line, then blend upwards at the outer corner of the eye. You don’t need to line your bottom lashes. [17] X Research Source
- Many other eyeshadow techniques also work well with the cat eye. Just try and see what looks best.
{“smallUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images_en/thumb/d/dc/Determine-Eye-Shape-Step-13-Version-2.jpg/v4-460px-Determine-Eye-Shape- Step-13-Version-2.jpg”,”bigUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images/thumb/d/dc/Determine-Eye-Shape-Step-13-Version-2.jpg/ v4-728px-Determine-Eye-Shape-Step-13-Version-2.jpg”,”smallWidth”:460,”smallHeight”:345,”bigWidth”:728,”bigHeight”:546,”licensing”:” <div class=”mw-parser-output”></div>”}
Add length to round, small, or deep eyes with a gradient eyeliner. Use the lightest color near the top of the eye and the darker color towards the bottom of the eye. Variations in the corners of the eyes by stretching slightly and a little higher. Blend the eyeliner a bit if you want a softer outline. [18] X Research Sources
- Use a clean brush to blend the tones together for a smooth, even blend.
- Apply mascara to the entire upper lash line, focusing on the eyes.
{“smallUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images_en/thumb/4/4e/Determine-Eye-Shape-Step-14.jpg/v4-460px-Determine-Eye-Shape-Step-14. jpg”,”bigUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images/thumb/4/4e/Determine-Eye-Shape-Step-14.jpg/v4-728px-Determine-Eye-Shape-Step- 14.jpg”,”smallWidth”:460,”smallHeight”:345,”bigWidth”:728,”bigHeight”:546,”licensing”:”<div class=”mw-parser-output”></div> “}
Extend the distance between eyes that are close together with a smoky eye to emphasize the outer corner of the eye. Apply a light eyeshadow over the entire lid, then add a darker shade to the third near the corner of the eye. Apply a darker shade to the outer corner of the eye to create shadows and enhance the lashline. Line your eyes with eyeliner and apply mascara at the corners of your eyes. [19] X Research Source
- Any dark color at the top of the eye will bring your eyes closer together.
{“smallUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images_en/thumb/8/88/Determine-Eye-Shape-Step-15.jpg/v4-460px-Determine-Eye-Shape-Step-15. jpg”,”bigUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images/thumb/8/88/Determine-Eye-Shape-Step-15.jpg/v4-728px-Determine-Eye-Shape-Step- 15.jpg”,”smallWidth”:460,”smallHeight”:345,”bigWidth”:728,”bigHeight”:546,”licensing”:”<div class=”mw-parser-output”></div> “}
Try the halo look for the almond-shaped eyes. Almond-shaped eyes go well with many eyeshadows, but the halo looks a bit different. First, you will apply a light color transition on the lid, then medium color on the first third of the eye and the third third of the eye, and finally apply a light color in the middle of the eyelid. Repeat this for the lower lash line and emphasize the top of the eye. [20] X Research Sources
- Line your lashes and brush your lashes for a sharper look.
{“smallUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images_en/thumb/4/4d/Determine-Eye-Shape-Step-16.jpg/v4-460px-Determine-Eye-Shape-Step-16. jpg”,”bigUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images/thumb/4/4d/Determine-Eye-Shape-Step-16.jpg/v4-728px-Determine-Eye-Shape-Step- 16.jpg”,”smallWidth”:460,”smallHeight”:345,”bigWidth”:728,”bigHeight”:546,”licensing”:”<div class=”mw-parser-output”></div> “}
Apply dark eyeshadow and eyeliner at the top of your eyes if you have eyes that are far apart. First, you will use a finger to apply primer on the upper eyelid. Apply a darker shade close to the tip of the eye and on the edge of the nose to create the illusion that the eyes are closer together. Next, you will highlight the corner of the eye with a light shade. Remember to blend the colors together. Line your eyes with a straight line, as thick or thin as you like, but don’t draw wings. [21] X Research Source
- You can also try lengthening the top of your brows by letting your brows grow or using brow makeup. [22] X Research Source
{“smallUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images_en/thumb/5/5c/Determine-Eye-Shape-Step-17.jpg/v4-460px-Determine-Eye-Shape-Step-17. jpg”,”bigUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images/thumb/5/5c/Determine-Eye-Shape-Step-17.jpg/v4-728px-Determine-Eye-Shape-Step- 17.jpg”,”smallWidth”:460,”smallHeight”:345,”bigWidth”:728,”bigHeight”:546,”licensing”:”<div class=”mw-parser-output”></div> “}
Use darker colors with large or bulging eyes. Apply eyeshadow primer or neutral eyeshadow first. Then, you apply a dark shadow on the upper eyelid, below the crease of the eyelid. Blend a dark, medium shade above the eyelid crease. Use black eyeliner to line your eyelids. [23] X Research Sources
- A black eyeliner around the eyes will also help make the eyes look less puffy. [24] X Research Source
Advice
- If you want your eyeshadow to last longer, you should apply a primer first.
- Your eyes may have many of the characteristics described above. For example, you might have deep, almond-shaped eyes that are droopy.
- Once you know your eye shape, you can find other makeup tips that work best for you.
