I'm half pure Chinese and it shows in my eyes, so I was wondering what do you use on Asian eyes? Makeup favourites? techniques?

I'm pretty stuck on the black liquid liner. so original, huh?

Wooo i'm on team asian too! Lol anyways hmm i don't have super small eyes but you can sort of tell. I like using gel liner and liquid liner to line the top (sometimes a slight wing) and on the bottom with gel liner or pencil i go almost halfway (if i go all the way it'll make it look smaller) and sort of blend it out so that it doesn't look like i didn't finish it on accident lol.

Nice! I do the half bottom liner and smoke/set it with black powder to do almost an anime eye look sometimes. I have not tried gel liner. always either stick or liquid or both.

Eh i'm not a big fan of pencils, only to sometimes line my bottom lash line or to tight line. I always stick with either gel liner or liquid. And i have to remember setting it so that i don't end up looking like a raccoon :o

My liner always seems to boycott staying on the outer corner of my eyes and it drifts off. can't get it to stay. I might try a clear powder and lots of it for that.

My main go to look is the cat eye with a gel liner. I do line my bottom lash line half way just because I like the feline look even though it does make my eyes look smaller, I don't mind plus I get a giggle when people think I am Korean when I'm Chinese and Viet.

does anyone have tips to make your eyes look bigger? I'm Chinese, and even though I have decently sized eyes they always look so small in pictures...

natural looking false lashes help, white liner can help too.

I think black eyeliner always opens up your eyes :)

The right brows can help a lot too.

I have Asian eyes as well and all I basically use is eyeliner... it gets boring after a while I wish I could go for a more natural look with less eyeliner but my eyes are just too small :/

oh, you gorgeous sweet Asian lovelies! I and actually jealous of your shading yet shape and what you could be doing with it! Gah! The amazing things! just for starters, check out gossmakeup on YouTube... he has a tutorial about eye shape that specifically addresses your gorgeous eye options. meanwhile, I will attempt to figure out how to copy a video only available to students of a specific school of how to do your specific shape eyes... that I <3. :)

Okay, ladies! I had the same problem for the longest time. What I do is apply a nice medium base all on the eyelid with a lighter, shimmery highlighter right beneath the eyebrow and the inner corner of the eye. It really brightens everything up :) okay, so this is my trick- I take a darker shade, and look at where my crease should be, and blend it in... I'll try to post a picture of what I mean. This look is great for an everyday look, or you can make it darker, and turn it into a night-on-the-town look... It's super versatile!
Hope this helps

For bigger eyes, wing your eyeliner slightly downward instead of out. This will create a puppydog effect instead of a cat eye.
I like to line my upper and lower lashlines with black eyeliner and my waterline with white...then add mascara. Also, I highlight my inner corners with white pencil (blend it out) and add shimmery pearl shadow. :)
