[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am olive skin, blue-eyed brunette with slight down-turned oval eyes.  I have been told I'm beautiful since I was a small kid.

I get that I'm "exotic' looking. I also have a Roman nose (though small nose).  My brother has the same eyes and was always Homecoming King, etc.

They can be sexy.  I don't think it's your eyes.  I think you are likely very pretty and much more interesting than the typical, boring conventional way.

What's funny is that in my 20s I made a good friend that had similar shaped eyes. When I was at her wedding everyone thought I was related to her, a sister or a first cousin.  I think she's gorgeous and love her eyes.  We look more alike than my sister who has very big round dark eyes.

I use a lot of mascara to open my eyes.  I need to top and lower line to make them noticeable.  Their light color with darker skin and darker hair makes them pop.  You sound like you are similar.

I wouldn't fight them.  The plus is that I have zero bags, puffiness or lines even in my old age").[/quote]

OP here and you sound like me, except my eyes are more hazel than blue. I think I’m dissatisfied with my eyes and face shape because we’re conditioned to find high cheekbones, heart shape faces, and upturned cat-like eyes to be most feminine and attractive. I also think there is something asymmetrical to my eye tilt, and that’s why my mirror reflection looks so different than in photos.

Will try some different makeup tutorials and try my hand at eyeliners and shadowing and eyebrow tweaking again, I’ve just never been really good at it. I’m also considering wearing glasses more if I can find a frame that’s flattering. [/quote]
