I wear glasses about 99% of the time due to dry eye and a build up of protein in my eyes, contacts are very irritating. I always feel less attractive when I wear glasses because I feel like my eyes are hidden. I do all the tricks, I use a concealer to cover dark circles, and I also use white eyeliner to line my waterline. However, I would like to know some good make up colors and tips to make my eyes look bigger behind my glasses. I look up videos on YouTube but they all use browns and I feel like browns actually make the eyes look smaller.

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated! Smile

Hi! I completely get where you are coming from! Eye make up is the most important part!

Try this:
Make a crease line with your eye liner (the wing effect)
Apply a dark shadow above the line. I am thinking that having a slightly longer crease line to make your lashes look longer may be a good start.
On the inside of the lid go for a super light color. The effect is amazing.
Blend the two colors on your lid.

But...if I can make a recommendation...
So many people look good with glasses! So choose a pair that allows your eyes to be seen. dark thin rims that are not too small that won't hide your eyes :)
Make the glasses work for you!
