How to Look Gorgeous in Glasses: Makeup and Beauty Tips for Wearing Makeup with Glasses

Perfecting the art of applying makeup is tricky enough without adding eyeglasses to the mix. But not to worry! Discover the secrets behind showing off eyes with cosmetics that complement — not compete with —glasses.

For women who wear glasses, it’s a common worry that they might hide their eyes or make them less noticeable. So it’s easy to overdo it when applying eye makeup. Fortunately, though, gorgeous makeup and glasses aren’t mutually exclusive. Discover simple steps that’ll ensure that makeup looks stunning – glasses and all – with Skincare-News.com’s latest article, “Beauty Tips for Looking Gorgeous in Glasses.”

 

When it comes to eye makeup and glasses, beauty experts agree that less is more. Keep it subtle, but match makeup with frames and lenses, which can alter the appearance of eyes. Here’s how.

  • Thick, colorful frames: Resist the temptation to apply heavy liner, mascara and eye shadow — especially for women who wear thick or colorful frames. Instead, pair soft black liner with volumizing mascara. And, if eye shadow is a must, choose a neutral shade. 
  • Thin or unframed glasses: Women who wear thin or unframed glasses can get away with a bit more when it comes to color and amount of makeup. So, for more playful days, consider having a special set of glasses for a bolder look.
  • Nearsighted lenses: Prescription lenses for nearsightedness can make the eyes appear smaller. To make eyes look bigger, line the top and bottom with liner. Fair-skinned individuals should select a dusky charcoal or deep brown, while anyone with darker skin looks great with a bold shade of black.
  • Farsighted lenses: Lenses that correct farsightedness can amplify the size of a woman’s eyes, so keep this in mind when applying makeup. Women can skip the liner and opt for neutral shades of shadow.
