I have very thick glasses that make my eyes look pretty big but pretty much hide my lids. What can I do to make my eyes pop and make my shadow more noticeable?
Without glasses, my eyes are pretty small and green in color.
Please excuse my dirty mirror lol
I also can't wear contacts because they irritate my eyes really bad and I can't get contacts strong enough for my prescription.

Try a bold colored eye shadow or smoky eye with a thick line of liquid eyeliner :)

Smokey eye doesn't really work for me because my eyes are so small. I wish!! I love the look of smokey eye.

I have the same problem! It's tough, but a winged liner, Since you have smaller green eyes, a soft purple gradient eye would be nice. If you dont know how to do that, search youtube. Hope this helps!

I have the same problem with the small eyes bit. Don't use black on your waterline makes your eyes look smaller. Use a nude or white liner makes you eyes bigger :)

You can still do a smokey eye- just differently. There are diff. ways of doing it, for sure. You can use a darker shadow at the lash line then blend lighter shadows (of the same color family) into the base. You don't need to do a dark one. A lot of black liner on the water line does close down small eyes. I have small eyes and I bring my crease color way above my crease because when my eye is relaxed my lid shade can get hidden by my almost hooded lid. With lenses that magnify more, you could do any makeup look-even funky ones because they will really stand out in a good way. I have funky frames so maybe changing your frames will detract from the lenses being so thick. I would look up makeup looks for glasses and small eyes.

Apply a darker color to the crease and a white color to the corners of your eyes.

Get a different pair of glasses that are up higher at the top so it doesn't cut your eye off so much :)
