Use White Eyeliner

Use White Eyeliner Hold on, don’t just start swiping it on. You have to be very precise with the white to get the effects you want. Start with a bone colored pencil and very carefully outline only the inner corners of your eyes with it. The slightly off-white color brightens the whites of your eyes with ease and is one of the easiest ways to brighten your eyes that I've ever tried.

UPD:

White eyeliner is a great way to instantly brighten up your eyes. It's best to use a bone colored pencil to outline the inner corners of your eyes. This subtle off-white color helps to make the whites of your eyes appear brighter and more awake. It's important to be precise when applying the eyeliner, as it can make a big difference in the look you achieve. Plus, it's an easy and quick way to get a more refreshed look.

Mask Dark Circles

Mask Dark Circles If you have dark circles below your eyes, using the right foundation can brighten your actual eyes too. That’s because masking those dark circles gives you a rested appearance, which naturally translates to bright eyes and a face that's are ready to take on the world. Choose a foundation that closely matches your skin tone or it will totally obvious. And make sure you blend well.

3

Shimmer

Shimmer I’m not talking about glitter, but just a bit of shimmer can open up your eyes and make them shine. Look for your favorite eye shadow shade with just a hint of sparkle, but not huge chunks of glitter. You want to look awake, not like a disco ball. Apply shimmer to the area near your tear ducts and just below your eyebrows. Lighter shades, such as ivory or pale pink, do the best job.

4

Shape Your Brows

Shape Your Brows Lots of girls look great with full eyebrows. I’m not one of them. However, having thicker brows can detract from the brightness of your eyes and leave them looking heavy and dark. Shape and thin your brows a bit and you’ll be happy to see how much brighter your peepers look.

5

Wear Pink Blush

Wear Pink Blush There’s something magical about a dusting of pink blush right on the apples of your cheeks. Not only does it give your face some color and define your cheekbones, but it also brightens your eyes by making them sparkle.

Wear Black Eyeliner

Wear Black Eyeliner What? I know – I had the same reaction. However, many make-up experts suggest using it to make the whites of your eyes appear brighter. The trick is to apply a very thin line to in the inner rims of both your top and bottom eyelids. This might take some practice so try it out a few times before you debut it to the world.

7

Curl Your Lashes

Curl Your Lashes Curling your lashes lifts them out and up, making them appear longer and fuller, while also opening your eyes and making them look brighter. Gently curl your top lashes, then apply a good coat of mascara to finish the look. Don’t glob it on, but apply a couple coats to enhance your lashes and put them to work for you.

How do you create a bright-eyed look? I like the white eye shadow trick myself and use it almost every day, even when I’ve had plenty of sleep. What are favorite tips and tricks?

So know one knows the purple color? The nude really is better than white. More natural and not so fake looking. It's by Stila called Kaj or close to it.
