Top Makeup Tips For Girls Who Wear Glasses

If you have been hiding behind your glasses wishing you could wear makeup - I am here to help you shine through! Firstly lets set things clear - wearing glasses does not mean your eyes won't look good with makeup. On the contrary, a bit of liner, a touch of color and your eyes will appear bigger and brighter behind those glasses.

I recently switched from wearing a rimless frame to a full rimmed frame from Elle that I got from Specs Appeal. I love this frame for its dual tone - the frame appears dark brown on the outside whereas the inner side that faces me is a lovely teal blue.

Larger frames are in vogue these days and when I switched to this frame I realised there are special things I take care of while doing my makeup. So I decided to write this post where in I plan to share some tips that you all can follow when you are wearing spectacles.

1. Conceal the under eye area

When you wear glasses, the glass slightly magnifies your eyes. This means the under-eye area gets highlighted more than it ordinarily would. So your best friend is a dab of concealer. You can try using the Maybelline dream-touch highlighting concealer or the Oriflame The One Illusion concealer.

2. Dab some color

Add some color to your eye lids. If you are off to work or college then keep the eyeshadow simple like a taupe or a natural gold color. Use the color all over the lid. When heading off to a party swap the taupe with a brighter color that complements your eyes. If you have brown eyes opt for a blue toned color whereas if you have blue or green eyes, use a brown.

3. Blush those cheeks


Wearing a bit of blush on your cheeks gives them shape. Stick to a color that is very natural and adds a natural rosiness to your cheeks. 

4. Line those eyes


Don't shy away from lining your eyes. A good black lined eye actually appears more flattering behind those glasses. If you've been wearing glasses for a long time, the weak eyes muscles actually make the eyes appear smaller. Adding a bit of liner opens them up. You can either use a thin line or wing it out for a more dramatic look. Opt for long wearing liners like the Maybelline or L'Oreal gel liners. I swear by them as they are easy to apply and give you that clean deep black line that just makes your eyes stand out.

5. Curl those lashes


We are not asking you to use an eye lash curler. All you need is a good mascara to naturally curl your lashes while also making them appear fuller. This trick is great specially if you have full framed spectacles. Mascara shapes the lashes making your eyes appear less tired.

6. Brush those brows


Whether you wear rimless glasses or thicker frames, a well shaped brow can make or break your look. Our special tip is to use an old mascara wand (that has almost dried out) in a shade that matches your brows. Use the wand to brush out your brows - the mascara will hide any unevenness and brush the brow hair in place. 

7. Check those lips

if you have opted for lightly lined eyes you can wear brighter lipstick. If your frame is full rimmed then match up your lipstick in contrast to the frame color. For brighter frames stick to neutral lip colors. With black or brown rimmed glasses play up those lips in pinks and reds.

I played around with these tips myself to show you that makeup actually looks good behind those glasses.
