If you have small eyes and single eyelids, widen your eyes by drawing a perfect double-winged eyeliner. Draw liner along your upper lash line, then make a small flick outward. Do the same for the bottom lash line, but make sure you don't apply liner any further in than the middle of your eye, otherwise, you'll give the appearance of smaller eyes. Apply a touch of highlighter near the inner corner of your eyes. This simple makeup trick will make your eyes look way bigger than what it is.

#2 Apply eyeshadow

Add a darker eyeshadow just below the waterline of your eyes. Add a matte shade around the edges and nearer to the inner eyelid to give definition. Lastly, draw a perfect double-winged eyeliner. Ta-dah, you’ve just revamped your whole look. Now you will realise your eyes look instantly bigger. Otherwise, you can get inspired by these eyeshadow looks which will make your single eyelid eyes look bigger instantly.
