How to apply makeup according to your vision correction?

Do you wear prescription glasses every day? And I’m sure that sometimes you love the makeup look you’ve just created, but then you put your glasses on and it ruins everything? Don’t panic! We’re here to help you find the right makeup style with your prescription glasses according to your vision correction.

Eye makeup to enhance your look

You should know that each type of vision correction has its own drawback when it comes to makeup. The lens treatment can sometimes create distortions in the apparent size of your eyes.

Myopia

Main drawback: Eyes appear smaller

Makeup goal: Make the eyes look bigger

1) Eyeliner

To counter this effect, I recommend using eyeliner. The line should be adapted to the type of frame you wear.

èIf you have a thick frame, especially an acetate one, I recommend choosing a fairly thin and long eyeliner line.

èOn the other hand, if you have a thin frame, such as a metal one, I recommend a thicker eyeliner line with a nice wing.

2) Mascara

A must-have in your makeup bag: mascara, of course! But how do you choose and apply it properly to make your eyes look bigger? I recommend choosing a mascara with a long, thin brush that will properly lengthen your lashes.

Before applying it, I recommend using an eyelash curler to enhance the lengthening effect. Then all you have to do is apply your mascara.

3) Highlighter

Very trendy in recent years, highlighter is amazing for brightening up your eyes! A small touch in the inner corner of the eye and underneath the eyebrow is enough to instantly make your eyes look bigger.

4) Gradient eyeshadow

Do you like adding colour or glitter to your eyes? Then eyeshadow is also a great option. Just be careful with the application. It is recommended to apply a darker shade in the crease and outer corner of the eye, with a lighter shade on the mobile eyelid.

Astigmatism

Main drawback: No real alteration to the appearance of the eyes

Makeup goal: Make the eyes stand out to draw attention away from the glasses

1) Eyeshadow

This helps bring out your eye colour. You just need to choose the right shade! Here are my tips:

- Blue eyes: orange or copper eyeshadows

- Dark eyes (brown, black, hazel): brown or gold eyeshadows

- Green eyes: burgundy or pink eyeshadows

2) Mascara

I’m repeating myself, but mascara is truly essential for highlighting your eyes. You can choose a mascara that adds volume, with a large, thick brush. When applying it, I also recommend using an eyelash curler for an even more open look.

3) Highlighter

As explained above, highlighter is a little boost for your eyes. A small touch in the inner corner of the eye is all you need. It helps attract light to this area for an irresistible look.

Presbyopia or Hyperopia

Main drawback: Eyes appear larger

Makeup goal: Redefine the eyes

1) Black eyeliner pencil

The miracle solution is to apply a little black pencil inside your waterline to enhance your eyes. If you want to redefine your eyes without making them look heavier, you can also use a little eyeshadow along the lower lash line with a suitable brush.

2) Mascara

The goal of mascara here is to add volume to your eyes. For this, I recommend choosing a mascara with a thick brush. To open up your eyes even more, you can also apply it on
