Asian Eyes

^ Thank you, HotSpot! I pluck/trim them myself and fill them in with MAC 266 brush and Print eyeshadow.

i actually want my eyebrow to be threaded,
too scared to do it myself...

I've been threading my eyebrows for over six years now.. it's quick and once you keep doing it, you get used to the pain. Sometimes it even feels a bit enjoyable! However when I haven't gone in a really long time, it hurts like heck! I haven't waxed my eyebrows before so I can't really compare the two pain levels... Threading sometimes feels like a razor on your skin but it comes and goes very quickly. I like that it's quick and efficient and there's no mess afterwards, other than blowing your brow hairs away from your face! I love getting it done because when it's over, your brows feel so fresh and groomed.

My nationality is korean but people usually 'assume' I am mixed because of my eyes..or some people just think I got plastic surgery, which is quite insulting actually. I love mascara but if I can't be bothered I use eyeliner most of the time, here are some pics of my eye(excuse some of the effects and everything, I photograph eyes a lot

i understand how you feel. it is pretty insulting... i have pale complexion and people thought i dyed my hair when i was young and wear coloured contact lenses...

mac fluid line is what I started using when sephora stopped carrying bobby browns gel liner.
it stays on asian eyes all day.

Not mine, but I have oily skin.

aquadisia, are you using it over a powder on your lid first? also, i use a tiny brush from sue devitt since i don't have a big crease.

I've tried all kinds of powder (before and after fluidline application) and MAC Paint. No luck Everything on the lower lashline smudges.

Thanks for the suggestion, though!

what about bobby brown gel liner? that one definitely stayed in place longer..
i think it's hard to line bottom eyes so just do the tops

I'm Vietnamese and I'm lucky that I have double eyelid so its easier for me to do makeup on myself i think

what mascara do you guys recommend. i feel like the hair on my lashes is tougher and harder to "stand up" or curl.
your pretty covergal. you look thai

I use Maybelline Sky High Mascara and out of all the mascaras I've tried so far, this one has worked the best for me in maintaining a curl. And that's saying quite a bit because my lashes are ridiculously stubborn when it comes to curling. Sometimes I apply my L'oreal Voluminous mascara as well because while Sky High helps keeps my curl, it doesn't do a lot for volumizing.

I'm also up for hearing anybody else's suggestions on good mascaras for Asian eyelashes!

i was using bourjois with the double ended mascara- can't remember the name.
it has the white lash builder on one side and the color you put on later. i think it looked ok, but it was hard to get off each night..unless you use a lot of good eye make up remover. i did feel my lashes were coming off..

here are some of my make-up testing out the l'oreal hip colors...i'm still a novice in this area so tips are welcome. notice that i have one eye smaller than the other one.

PS, I found the best way to curl eyelashes is to use a heated curler, than a base coat (i use lancome cils booster XL) and then two coats of mascara (lancome hypnose) and finish up with the heated curler again. that's what I did on the purple eye. on the green one, just the regular maybelline volume express

Which HIP colors are you using? I've been on the lookout for Showy EVERYWHERE but no luck! Looks like everyone else in Vancouver has heard of its similarity to MAC's Parrot
