Hi, my name is Yara, your beauty expert. I'm going to show you how to apply eye shadows to make your eyes look bigger for moon shaped eyes. The tools that you'll be needing are a fluffy brush, a flat brush, light eye shadow color and a darker color. Let's get started. The first thing you want to do is take your lighter eye shadow color and just pour a little bit onto the lid. Being that this is a mineral, that's the way you want to go. We're going to take the flat brush and just dip it in there really good, tap and apply on the inner lid all the way to the outer lid and crease. You want to apply it like this, all like kind of like in a circular motion and just do the same thing with the other eye. If you feel like you need more, go for it. When making your eyes look bigger it's all about product placement, where you put your eye shadow, your light colors, your dark colors. Then you want to go ahead and take your fluffy brush and the darker eye shadow and you want to do the same thing, just tap tap some color onto the lid, take that awesome fluffy brush, just swirl it in there, tap and apply it onto the outer crease and lid. In this case we have chosen a light purple. Applying your lighter on the inside will help to give you that pop, make your eyes look bigger. And that is how you apply eye shadow to make eyes look bigger for moon shaped eyes. Don't forget the most important thing is the color placement. My name is Yara, your beauty expert. See you soon.
