Gyaru Makeup

Big doll eyes from the Tokyo streets: heavy top and bottom lashes, a thick black liner that dips at the outer corner, white in the waterline, bronzed cheeks and a pale glossy lip.

When to wear it

Wear it to a party, a photo booth night or a day out in a cute outfit, when you want big eyes that show from across the room. It is for you if you love false lashes and a pale glossy lip. The pictures show it on monolid eyes, on tan skin and on medium skin with hazel eyes.

How it's done

A smooth, matte base. A warm bronzer swept over the cheeks, forehead and nose, a soft pink blush on the apples and a bright highlight down the bridge of the nose. Brows filled in a light brown with a soft arch. A warm brown shadow on the lid and crease and gold shimmer at the centre of the lid. A very thick, glossy black liner along the upper lash line, extended slightly down past the outer corner, and a black liner along the outer two thirds of the lower lash line meeting it, for a dropped, rounded outline. A white shimmer pencil in the lower waterline and the inner corners. Dramatic, very full and long false lashes on the upper lash line and clearly separate spiky false lashes on the lower lash line. This is a bold, dramatic look: the eye makeup must be strong and clearly visible in the photo, never subtle. Lips in a pale pink nude with gloss.
