15 Stunning eye makeup tricks for Asians

If you’ve ever watched makeup tutorials and found yourself baffled when instructed to "blend into your crease", worry not. While there are many types of Asian eyes, most women can relate to having crease-less eyes.

Go beyond traditional makeup rules and have fun experimenting with what works best for your eye shape.

Swipe through our gallery to find game-changing eye makeup tips and tricks for Asians!

Add a little black eyeliner on the inner corner as well as on the crease

For this particular look, apply green eyeshadow on the lid and brown eyeshadow halfway to the browbone. Don’t forget to blend it so as to create a softer, natural look.

Double your eyeliner

Start by lining your eyes with black eyeliner and top it off with a thin strip of brightly colored eyeliner.

Party-ready smoky eye

For a quick party-ready smoky look, dab on some gold glittery eyeshadow onto the inner corners of your eyelids.

A flick of hot pink

Make your eyes pop by applying a tiny flick of hot pink on both corners.

Make eye makeup last longer with a cream base

A good tip for making eyeliner last longer on oily eyelids is applying a cream eyeshadow base before putting on gel eyeliner.
Replace eyeshadow with cross-hatch gel

Instead of using eyeshadow, use a cross-hatch gel liner onto lids and blend it in for long-lasting coverage.

Add a subtle hint of ice blue

For a more defined but soft look, apply a little bit of ice blue shadow below the eye.
A "whale" winged smoky eye look

A "whale" winged smoky eye look

A great way to create a winged smoky eye look is applying black eyeshadow in a "whale shape." This is more flattering than a linear cat eye if your eyelids hood a bit at the outer corners.

A great gradient look

If you have a monolid, this simple vertical gradient eyeshadow look will be most flattering for you. Remember to use the darkest color closest to your lash line.
Dramatic winged look

Want to create a dramatic winged look? Simply draw an outline and fill it in.

A little mint makes for a cool look

Add a little mint to the inner corner of your eye; this is just as effective as adding vibrant color on your lids.

Play with color from top to bottom

Play with color from top to bottom

If you’re a fan of color, play around by using two different colors on the top and bottom of your eyes.

Line your waterline to open up your eye

Line your waterline to open up your eye

An important hack to open up your eye is to line the bottom waterline but to remember to line it three-fifths of the way towards the inner rim.

Focus on the bottom inner corner for a sleek effect

If you’re looking for a sleek, upturned effect, just line the bottom inner corner with black eyeliner.
