Enlarge your eyes and reduce the feeling of puffiness is the key to monolid eye makeup. Although many monolid girls don’t like eyeshadow, in fact, monochromatic eyeshadows with layers can help enlarge the eyes. Take a look at Chao Yixian’s eye makeup, she often uses earthy matte eyeshadows, the gradual color transition can make the contours more three-dimensional, helping to reduce the appearance of eye puffiness. Eyeshadows should be blended naturally from dark to light at the lash line, outer corner, and lower lash line to create a gradient color effect that enlarges the eyes. Finally, brighten the inner corners of the eyes, even small eyes can become round and big!

The thickness, thinness, and length ratio of eyeliner is also something that monolid girls need to pay attention to. Zhao Yixian, who likes light makeup, will insist on drawing simple black eyeliner even when appearing in pseudo-natural makeup. The eyeliner that closely follows the roots of the eyelashes, with delicate and neat elongated lines as the main focus. For a simpler look, you can start drawing above the pupil, then extend the eyeliner towards the end of the eye. This one-stroke method is quite suitable for makeup beginners.

In addition to clean and neat eyeliner, the airy eyelashes are also a key point of Chao Yixian’s makeup. Generally speaking, girls pursue long and thick eyelashes in makeup. The old concept makes us believe that thick eyelashes can enlarge the eyes, but in fact, for girls with single eyelids, the airy eyelash makeup is the key to success. Overly thick eyelash makeup can affect the curvature of the eyes, and instead, clear and thin long eyelashes have a diffusive enlarging effect, and can also soften the sharpness of long and narrow eye shapes.
