How to do Asian eye makeup?
First of all, all Asian women want their eyes to look bigger. Double lids, mono lids -- doesn't matter. To us, bigger is better.
Value Shift Technique
An eye makeup technique that I have been using is called Value Shift. It is done by applying darkest to lightest eye shadows from the lash line up.
Not only does the Value Shift technique make eyes look bigger, it provides a smoldering, smokey look too.

Excellent tutorial and unless you at Asian, and specifically Asian from the north and east region you will not understand! I do something similar but my shadow doesn't go all the way up, I tried it once and it felt too overwhelming but it was a purple which is my least favorite eyeshadow colour.
ReplyDeleteI'm in love with your Asian eyes dear, I think they are so sweet and beautiful:) I've enjoyed your tips, will follow as well!:) Kisses! xo
ReplyDeleteThis is really interesting :) i didnt know this was the technique used,, i suppose if i wanted bigger eyes id probably apple white liner to the water line or something basic like that, and a darker shadow in my lower lash line :) maybe doing that plus ur technique would be even better lol?

ReplyDeleteI use the same technique with shades of brown and cream.. :) x
