It's actually relatively easy to determine your eye shape, as long as you have a mirror and a few minutes.In addition to the shape of your eyes, you can also pay attention to the position of your eyes in relation to the rest of your face, because this also determines how your eyes look.

To step

Part 1 of 3: Determine the shape

1. Look at your eyes in the mirror. Go to a well-lit area and bring a mirror. Hold the mirror as close to your face as possible so that you can see at least one eye.
   • A magnifying mirror is ideal, but you can use any mirror as long as you can see your eyes clearly. You can think of a standing mirror, a hanging mirror such as on the wall or in a closet, or a movable mirror such as in a make-up box.
   • Natural light often provides the best light, but as long as you can see your eyes clearly, artificial light is also good.
2. Consider whether your eyelid has a crease. Take a look at your upper eyelid. Like this eyelid no fold, you have one monolid. On the other hand, if your eyelid does have a crease, you need to move on to the next step before you can determine your eye shape.
   • Keep in mind that the crease in your eyelid doesn't have to be visible to be counted. A real one monolid has no fold.
   • It monolid counts as a basic eye shape, so if you have one, you don't need to proceed to the next steps in the part of the article where The form being treated. However, you can continue with the true part The position being treated.
3. View the position of the outer corners. Imagine there is a straight horizontal line running from the center of both your eyes. See if your outer corner of the eye is above or below this line. If your eyes are above this line, you have to the above eyes. Likewise, if the corner of your eye is below this line, you have standing down eyes.
   • It can be difficult to imagine a line running through the center of your eyes, so if necessary, you can also run a plastic stirrer or thin pencil across the center of one eye. Use your other eye to see the position of the outer corner of the other eye.
   • If the outer corners of your eyes are close to the centerline, you will need to go even further to determine your eye shape.
   • If you standing up or standing down eyes, you can follow the steps as described in The form skip and skip to the part The position.
4. Look closely at the crease in your eyelid. See if the fold is visible or hidden, while keeping your eyes open. If the crease is hidden under the top part of your eyelid or brow bone, you have a hooded eye shape.
   • You can stop now if you have determined that you have a hooded have eye shape. This is your basic eye shape, so you can skip the rest of the steps in this part of the article and skip to the part The position.
   • If the crease of your eyelid is visible, you will need to read the rest of this section.
5. Look at the whites of your eyes. Better yet, look at the white around the iris - the colored part of your eyes. If you can see white above or below your iris, you have round eyes. If you can't see any whites above or below the iris, you have almond-shaped eyes.
   • Both round as almond-shaped are basic eye shapes.
   • If you don't have other shape features like the ones described above, you can only use the round or almond-shaped have eye shape.
   • This is the last feature you can use to determine your eye shape. The only thing you can use after this is determine the position of your eyes in relation to your face.

Part 2 of 3: Determining the position

1. Look in your mirror again. Just as you did to determine your eye shape, you now need to look intently at your eyes in the mirror in a well-lit room. Now, however, make sure that both eyes are visible in the mirror. Because one eye is not enough to accurately determine the position of your eyes.
2. Check out your inner corner of the eye. In other words, look at the space between the two inner corners of your eyes. If this space is shorter than the length of an eye in size, you have close-set eyes. If the space is wider than the length of an eye, you have wide-set eyes.
   • It may also be that the space is about the length of an eyeball. In that case, the length of the space between your eyes doesn't matter.
   • In this step you only determine the width of your eyes. It doesn't go into depth or size, so you still need to move on to the rest of the steps in this section, even if you have close-set or wide-set eyes.
3. Determine the depth of your eyes. Most people do not need to factor in the depth of their eyes when determining the position of their eyes, but some people do have deep-set eyes or protruding eyes.
   • Deep-set eyes look like they are tucked deep into the eye socket, making the upper eyelid appear short and small.
   • Bulging eyes, on the other hand, literally protrude from the eye socket towards the upper lash line.
   • Since this step only deals with the depth of your eyes, you still need to continue with the remainder of this section, which will determine the size of your eyes.
4. Compare your eyes to the rest of your face. Compare your eyes with your mouth and nose. The average eye size is the same as that of your mouth or nose, sometimes a bit smaller. If your eyes are a lot smaller then you have small eyes. If they are larger than the other facial features, then you have large eyes.
   • As with the depth of eyes, most people don't have to pay attention to their eye size.

Part 3 of 3: Optional makeup tips for eye shape and eye position

1. Put on makeup that matches your eye shape. For most women, the eye shape provides the best guideline when it comes to applying eye makeup.
   • Women with monolid eyes can create depth by applying a few shades side by side upwards. Apply a dark color near the lash line, a soft neutral line towards the center, and a glossy color near the brow bone.
   • If you have upturned eyes, you can apply dark eyeshadow or eyeliner to the lower outer corner of the eye, making the outer corner look lower.
   • If you have downward-looking eyes, apply eyeliner near the top lash line and blend the eyeshadow onto the lid, but only on the outer two-thirds of your eye. because of this til you see your eye visually up.
   • If you have hooded eyes, you can go for medium to dark matte colors and apply as little as possible so that you don't make your eyes look too strong.
   • If you have round eyes, you can use medium to dark colors on the center of your lids and light colors to highlight the corners. With this narrow you shape your eye.
   • If you have almond-shaped eyes, you have what many people have ideal eye shape. You can try out almost any make-up look you want with this eye shape.
2. Consider the distance between your eyes. If you have conspicuously wide-set or close-set eyes, you may want to take that into account when thinking about what makeup to put on.
   • If you have close-set eyes, it is best to apply light eyeshadow on the inner corners of the eyes and dark colors on the outer corners of the eyes. Also apply mascara to the eyelashes at the outer corners of the eyes. This will make your outer corners of the eyes longer.
   • If you have wide-eyed eyes, it is best to apply dark eyeliner as close to the inner corners of your eyes as possible, and apply mascara to your lashes from the center of your lash line to your nose. This makes it look like your eyes are a bit closer together.
3. Also take into account the depth of your eyes. The depth of your eyes does not have to play a major role in your eye make-up, but there are some things you can take into account.
   • If you have deep-set eyes, put some light colors on the top lid and a darker color just above your lid. This shifts the shadow of your eye and ensures that it is further on top.
   • If you have bulging eyes, use medium to dark colors on the top and bottom of the eyes and don't let the colors extend beyond the creases of your lids. Use a little bit more color than you normally do, which will make them look like they are deeper in the eye socket.
4. Pay attention to details regarding small or large eyes. The amount of makeup you apply can vary if you are dealing with eyes that are outside the average size.
   • Small eyes often look too bold when using dark colors, so stick to light to medium colors and avoid weighing down your lash line by putting on too much mascara or eyeliner.
   • Big eyes give you a wider palette to work with, so you can play with different styles. But medium to dark colors often look nicer, because light colors can make the eye look even bigger than it already is.
