For ladies with small, single-lidded eyes, apply a darker eyeshadow shade near the lash line at the outer corner, then blend it slightly outward. Draw a line with eyeliner right along the lash line, then add black mascara, focusing on thickening the outer corner. This creates an eye-enlarging effect!
If your upper eyelids are thick and heavy, lashes can get flattened by the skin, making mascara less effective. An eyelash curler can help here. A tip for curling: clamp in three sections from inner to outer corners, then apply a volumizing mascara!
For eyeshadow selection, monolids should opt for single-color shades. Since monolids have smoother contours, monochromatic eyeshadow creates a more pronounced effect on this eye shape, often achieving an eye-enlarging effect.
