A good eyeliner and tinted lip gloss are a lazy girl’s best friend. It makes us go from ordinary to better-than-ordinary in a little less than a minute. But we all have days when we want to look a little different? Days when we want to try something new, maybe even use all that fancy makeup we bought for a special occasion another lifetime ago.
But we have a limited amount of makeup skill, patience, and precious morning minutes.
So here’s a simple makeup trick for Fridays (being end of the week and all) that requires nothing more than 2 minutes and an old eyeshadow.
Why Highlight the Inner Eye Corner?
Shimmery corners, or inner corner highlights, as the makeup elite like to call it, do more than just upgrade your daily liner+gloss look.
Firstly, shimmery corners make your eyes look bigger
This is true especially when you highlight the inner corner with a light gold or silvery white eyeshadow. Even without a liner, the shimmery corners make your eyes look brighter and bigger.
Secondly, the highlights keep your inner eye corners clean
That eyeliner/kohl gooey gunk you keep cleaning out from the corners, eyeshadow highlights prevents that from collecting and smudging your look.
