eye liner, make your eyes smaller Options

[LiLaZnGirL122]

when you put on eye liner does it really make your eyes look smaller if you only put it on the bottem?

[Aerjae]

Depends how much you put.

[jenniiiii]

not at all. my eyes look weird without eyeliner lol

[felicity*aka*fe]

i put it on my bottoms and it makes thme bigger....so i dunno

[ilovAL092]

i put it on my bottoms and it makes thme bigger....so i dunno

ya same here

[troublemaker36]

it makes mine look bigger..there tiny when im not wearing makeup..

[Smoogrish]

I've always had the impression it made your eyes look droopy. I wouldn't say smaller.

[n00b]

i think it just brings out your eyes

[maguti]

I've always had the impression it made your eyes look droopy. I wouldn't say smaller.

My eyes look droopy if I wear gray eyeliner.

[ariana8716]

it does for me,but i naturally have small eyes so that doesn't make it any better.
now i like to put it on the top,which for me makes them bigger.

[sprezzatura]

It only makes me look droopier, but that's because it would stand out my eye bags and dark circles.

[SarahxJoy]

It makes my eyes look bigger and more noticeable.

[shinysparkle3]

uhm, i don't wear it ONLY on the bottom cause i think it looks gay on me. but when i put on my eyes like POP! but my eyes are naturally like big and like out there, lol.my eys are DARK brown so yeah.

[PrincessAda]

When I use it..it brings out my eyes..and makes them stand out more..so it makes them look a bit bigger.

[parallel]

Idk but I heard eyeliner can put you at risk for cancer or something.
I doubt it.

[nikkkkki]

no, that's not at all the case for me. my eyes look like so chinky without the stuff. but maybe it depends what color you use. i happen to use blue.

[Gigi]

It really depends. If you have deep set, larger eyes, then eyeliner looks fine. It's not as overwhelming.

But say, if you're Asian and have more of a flat eye socket area, and the crease is less prominent and less of the eye is exposed, a full eye of liner is much too overwhelming. Yes, it will make the eye look smaller.

Just think about the optical illusions you've seen as a kid. I remember one where they show a black circle on a white background, and then a white circle on a black background. It asks you to choose the one that's bigger. Most everyone chooses the white circle, even if the circles are the exact same size.

Makeup is all about optical illusions.

I, for one, look like a whore if I put too much eyeliner on the bottom. Looking like a whore = no no.

Better to use eyeliner on the top lashline in a high concentration in order to create the illusion of a thicker lashline, which will open your eyes more.

That's just me. I just think that overusage of eyeliner looks like you're trying too hard. It's a bit too made-up for daytime.

[*StanleyThePanda*]

Wow Gigi, that was long.
But very right... so yeah Gigi's theory.

[Looow]

If I only put it on the bottom, it does make my eyes smaller.

If you put it on the top, it makes them to look bigger.

Both, BAMMM !!

Thats just me though.

[femmefatale4160]

It depends on how much you use, but I've never seen anyone whose eyes actually look bigger from using it. If you think your eyes look bigger, you're either imagining it or you have damn good eyeliner. But putting it on the top does widen your eyes.

[*Teenage Mutant Ninja Meg*]

eyeliner is made to make your eyes look bigger.
i only put it on the bottom, i'm hopeless at putting it on the top...

[ichigofan]

actually for me it makes my eyes look bigger, if u want ure eyes to look wider, put some white eyeliner on the bottom or on the corners of the eyes.. it looks pretty and makes ure eyes look wider

[clarity]

actually, for me it makes my eyes look bigger.
but sometimes it makes my eyes look wider.. than taller.
its different each time.
and depends how correct i put it on, and how much i put on.

[Lyke_OMFG_Its_As...]

If you want to make your eyes bigger looking like a doll use White Eye Liner.

[dinoooRAWR]

When I use it..it brings out my eyes..and makes them stand out more..so it makes them look a bit bigger.

same here

[shortiiex]

you're eye look smaller if you wear too much makeup

[energizerbunny]

I think eyeliner only makes your eyes smaller when you put them on the top and bottom.

[Gypsy Eyes]

If you use eyeliner on the bottom inner corners it makes your eyes look slightly smaller.

Otherwise it doesn't.

[Hiphop d[-_-]b]

It depends on how your eyes are and how much and how you apply it. The way I apply mine, it makes my eyes look bigger people tell me.

yea same here, when dont put it, it makes my eye tried looking idk
people say i look better with it

[shinysparkle3]

my sister does and i think it does.
i put it on top and bottom and it makes my eyes pop.

[rochelley-o]

Whenever I wear eyeliner, my eyes look tiny. My mom told me my eyes look more Asian-y when I wear it.

[Something Vague]

If you want to make your eyes look smaller, line them from the inside, only.

[Trinie]

i put them on the top and the bottom! i look so weird without eyeliner.

[_kiwibabemaddy_]

i love how much everyine has to say about eyeliner :P

i like black cause its dark and shows off that i have hazle eyes not brown:)

[joiedevie]

i think it actually makes your eyes bigger. at least, more defined.

[miss barnes]

i have small eyes and i put it on the bottom and then the top if i have time. usually rushing

[smokescreen]

It depends on the kind of eye you have...asian eyes without the double eyelid look loads smaller with eyeliner on.

[x_curse_of_the_c...]

Idk but I heard eyeliner can put you at risk for cancer or something.
I doubt it.

if you share eyeliner with other people then you are putting yourself at risk for diseases because it goes on your eyes and if they have germs on their hands then it goes on to your eyeliner and then you put it on your eyes. so don't share your eyeliner. im a germophobe so i know like all that useless sometimes usefull info.

[orgasm]

^ useless info, aka common sense?

Don't share makeup. Period. It's a great way to pass around bacteria and get infections. Do you really want your friend's shedded off epithelial tissues on your face?

I think not.

[x_curse_of_the_c...]

^lol. yeah but some people don't think about it. alot of people share eyeliner here and im like eww.
