    Waking up with puffy eyes is the worst and makes your makeup look awful. You can drain the morning puffiness with a cool shot, submerge your face in ice cubes and cucumber (Kate Moss trick), dabbing cold eye drops around the eye area also gets rid of the puffiness. Or you can choose the tea bag method. You dip the tea bag in hot water and then take the tea bag out of the water to cool for five to ten minutes. Place the tea bags on your eyes for five minutes and rinse eyes with cold water.<\/li>\n

L\u2019Oreal Paris Touche Magique Illuminating concealer (\u00a38.19) is recommended and affordable. Remember, in order to brighten up your face the right way, take it down to your cheek in a \u2018V\u2019 shape.<\/li>\n

    As black liner inside the lower eyelid is known to make your eyes look smaller, a brightening neutral shade will open them. It doesn\u2019t necessarily have to be white eyeliner; a creamy flesh-coloured tone will conceal redness infallibly. KIKO waterproof Kohl in white or nude (\u00a33.99)<\/li>\n

    \u00a0Contour the crease<\/h4>\n

    Contouring your eyelids to give them a secret enhanced shape. Use an eyeshadow slightly darker than your natural skin tone along the crease of your eyelid. Follow with darker or a lighter colour eyeshadow, depending on the look you are going for.<\/li>\n

  6. \n

    \u00a0Highlight the inner corner<\/h4>\n

    Apply a light shadow or highlighter in the inner corner of your eyelids and below the arches of your eyebrow. You will instantly notice a difference, this makes your eyes appear wider and brightens them up.<\/li>\n

    Liquid eyeliner enhances the eye dramatically. Draw your line as close to the upper lash line as possible and do not enclose your eyes by lining all the way around, especially towards the bottom. Gradually increase the thickness towards the outer corner. Apply a flick and your eyes will look on fleek.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
