Tutorial: Sexy Anime Eyes

Huhuhuhuuuu... A tutorial after sooo long huh? I have almost forgotten how to make one. ;__ ; But I really had to do this one! It was a request by the lovely Coral Crue! And I had left it hanging for so long! She must hate me! PLEAZ NUN HATE ME CORAL! ;A;

10 points for guessing whose eye that is! Clue: It's not a female character.:P


I actually didn't know what to call this look, gyaru has more lashes and Ulzzang not quite enough makeup. A lot of people especially on Facebook told me how Anime like my eyes looked when I wore this make up in a photo. So I decided to go with the flow! LOL! Anyway, here's the tutorial! ♥

Step 1: Put on circle lenses! It won't matter very much but they add a lot of oomph to your look. Especially if you're doing a look like this. I've put a comparison picture at the end to show you the difference in how they look.
I'm wearing Beuberry Kitten Eyes below. I bought them from Uniqso. ^-^ I'll do a review soon!


Step 2: Use a brown shimmery shade to highlight the outer third of your eyelid. Don't go beyond the eyebrow or crease. I used L'Oreal Infallible eyeshadow in Burning Black.


Step 3: On the majority of the center eyelid, use a shimmery shadow of your choice. Blend into the outer colour. I like gold or copper but here I'm using a coral gold colour. ^-^


Step 4: Using the same shadows of the upper lid, line the lower lid. Make sure the brown shadow in the corner doesn't curve with the lower lash line, keep it straight and let it meet the shadow on the upper lid.


Step 5: Use a shimmery light beige shadow and use it all overthe inner lids, both upper and lower, take it quite low from the lower lid. It adds a contour to the eyes.


Step 6: Use a gel liner or liquid liner and line the upper lash line. Start thin on the inside and thicker on the outside. Don't wing it up too much.


Step 7: Use the liner and draw a very angular thick liner on the outer third of the lower lid. Join it to the upper liner. You can already see the angles forming because of the straight lines. :)


Step 8: Joining the line you just drew, line the center of the waterline only. Then just line the very inner corner of the waterline. for a more innocent look, keave the inner corner and do only the center.


Step 9: This step is all lashes and mascara. i don't have lashes to wear so I use a lot of mascara. After curling my lashes, I put 2 coats of curling mascara and two coats of volumising to get the effect below. Lashes definitely add a lot to the look but I no has. >.<

And that's it! That's how you get angular and long anime eyes. ^-^

Here are pictures to show you the difference between no lenses and lenses with this look. Sorry about the flash used, I was doing this at night. X( The circle lenses definitely add the anime touch right? Lol!
I hope you enjoyed that tutorial and get to use it, especially for cosplay and costume parties! Thanks for reading!
