Eyeliner is often a failsafe for creating a dramatic makeup look but your tried and tested technique may not be the most flattering for your eye shape - or your face.
Makeup artist Davinia Fermi, from Brighton - who has worked with supermodels Kate Moss and Gisele Bündchen, and photographer David Bailey - has revealed the eye-opening tricks that will flatter all face shapes.
From emphasising small peepers with lots of liner to blending harsh lines on round eyes, here are her top tips
ALMOND EYES Although almond eyes are the 'perfect' eye shape, the makeup artist advises a feline flick because it 'accentuates the symmetry.' Davinia, who has worked in the beauty industry for over 15 years and founded the DFMA Make Up Academy in Brighton, said: 'Using the under eye line as a guide, draw an invisible line from under the eye then draw an actual line from the outer corner to meet the dot. This gives an even flick on both eyes BIG EYES Davinia says that the goal with large eyes is to try and prevent them looking much bigger. Her advice is to choose sultry eye makeup, with a thick rim of black liner on the upper lid, and a thin liner on the lower lid, drawing attention to the outer sections of the eye.While many lucky women boasting big eyes might use a strong line, Davinia suggests softening it and creating a square flick. She said: 'A smudged liner works well either above or below the eye. Hard-edged liners often draws attention to the roundness of the eye.
