          "Boys don't make passes at girls who wear glasses".....WHATEVER! That ship has sailed and wearing glasses is cooler than ever. With all the amazing frames out there it's even easier to use them as a fun fashion accessory! There is a LOT of bad information floating around online from people on how to wear your makeup if you also wear glasses. Many of the "tips" I have read are the complete opposite of what you should be doing. Additionally, there are way too many "tricks" being suggested and it doesn't need to be that complicated. Ain't no one got time for that! Keep it simple, master these simple rules and then start getting creative.
Listen...I love neon as much as the next guy (that's not true, I love it WAY more) but your eyes are not the place to experiment with the latest acid-green eye shadow you saw on Demi Lovato last week IF you wear specs. Keep your shadow colors in the neutral family so you don't appear garish and clown-like. Some great palettes to check out areherehere and here. If you MUST use a pop of color, try a jewel-toned gel liner in a contrasting shade from your eye color (i.e. brown-eyed gals try a deep amethyst, blue-eyed beauties go for a warm copper, green-eyed ladies try a rich wine hue in the color 'plum', hazel-eyed homegirls give bronze color 'lionfish' a shot) this will allow you to be playful while still making your eyes pop. Just keep the rest simple. Here's a great example of how very subtle copper shadow makes her green eyes pop!I've heard so many ninnies say "Mascara sticks to lenses!  You can't wear mascara with glasses!" Well...yeah...if you don't let it dry first OR curl your lashes (see #4). Exercise some common sense here. Apply mascara, wait for it to dry. Put glasses on. Voila! Mascara really opens up the eyes. Don't skip it just because you wear glasses!                                                                     Image:Source Advertisement
