The Best Tips & Tricks For All Girls In Glasses

If you are a fellow spectacles wearer, then you might find that you often hide behind your glasses.

When it comes to your makeup, is anyone going to notice precision cat-eye eyeliner behind some thick tortoise shell frames? But many beauty experts, including Bobbi Brown, say that people will. You can still wear makeup and style your face to go with your glasses. You don’t need to just not do anything, unless you want to of course! So if you wear glasses or have just started to wear glasses, then these are some essentials that every girl needs.

Mascara

I think many of us can’t go too far without mascara. If we were asked to only ever wear one piece of makeup again, I know a lot of people that would choose mascara as that one item. It can make such a difference to how your eyes look and can make them pop. When you wear glasses, it is important to get it right, though. You don’t need to go too heavy on the mascara if you are wearing thick and bold frames. If you wear rimless glasses, then you could go for a little more mascara. One other tip is that if you have dark under eye circles, then avoid using mascara on your lower lashes. It can emphasize the dark circles and make them look worse, especially if the mascara gets smudged or clumpy.

Glasses Kit

When you are out and about on your travels, you do need to have some essentials with you that girls without glasses wouldn’t have even thought about. Having a proper glasses case with you is a must. It not only protects your glasses, but it can keep other glasses essentials all in one place. It can also save you money as it keeps your glasses safe. If glasses get broken, or lenses get scratched, then it can cost a lot of money to repair. Having a cloth and some lens cleaner is a good idea, so that you can clean your lenses correctly, even when you’re on your travels. Having the right kind of microfiber cloth is a good idea too. Other materials can be a little harsh and could lead to small scratches on the lenses.

Use Concealer

Depending on your type of prescription, the glass in your frames can actually emphasise any discoloration, especially under the eyes. So using a concealer or a corrector is a really good idea. You could use concealer under your eyes, as well as in your eye creases. A light eyeshadow can be used in the corner of your eyes, and it makes it pop and look bigger and brighter straight away.

Keep Color Simple

You will have your glasses frames being a certain color. So you don’t want to go too overboard with the color of eye makeup. If you do want color, then go for color on your lips, rather than your eyes. The eye makeup can compete with the color of your glasses, and that is never a good look.
