Many Asian women have thin eyebrows. If this sounds like you, use an eyebrow pencil that closely matches your natural hair color. Start from the inside of your eyebrow (above your nose) and fill in the spaces with an upward, feather-like motion. Your fill-ins should be drawn in the same direction as your natural hair growth.

Also, when you are filling in your eyebrows keep in mind that heavy black pencil is a no-no. It tends to look unnatural on Asian women and can drag down the face.

Stay away from dark eye shadows, as that can make small Asian eyes seem even smaller. Look for light to medium shadows, and leave the dark shades on the shelf.

Asian eyes allow for a lot more eyeliner than other women's eyes might, so don't be afraid to apply your eyeliner and go back over it to make it thicker and smoother.

Don't be afraid of color! While Asian eyes don't go well with dark eye shadow tones, there are no rules against color and there are some brilliant color palettes that are in fashion today. Feel free to experiment with color and try something new. Eye shadow can be washed off easily.

Asian eyes are a thing of beauty. There are many Asian eye makeup tips out there that can help make creating the dramatic eye a thing of ease, and these are just some of the basics. You aren't as limited as you think when it comes to makeup.
