Hi Olga, try using a white eyeliner pencil in the bottom lash line. :) This will give the illusion of bigger eyes. If you look at my profile picture, i have also lined my bottom lash line with white liner.

When i want my eyes to look extra big i to a winged eyeliner for the top, and for the bottom (very important!) i use a liner and then apply some eyeshadow of the same color over the liner and smudge it a little bit to make it slightly smokey. Also imo, the way you apply the mascara is also important. And don't forget to apply mascara on the bottom lashes!! Hope it helps :)

I usually do cat eye style make up and mascara most of the time and it makes my eyes look a lot bigger.

Using a bit of a white eye shadow in the corner of your eye can help!

Hello Olga! My best friend has eyes shaped just like yours, and she looks like a different woman when her eyes are done right! Here is the method she and I worked out, its different than some of them listed here and I hope it works for you! Do your foundation/base makeup as usual, blend a nude eyeshadow that is lighter than your skin and has some reflection (I like Mary Lou-Manizer) softly from the inside corner of the eye to the outside, and then softly up and out. This shouldn't look like an eye color, just some soft light. Then take a brown eyeshadow and a small eye brush and line your eye. The outside should look like the whole area before your crease is a soft brown, slowly getting thinner until you reach the inside corner and there is hardly any brown. Then take a black (or darker brown) smudgable eyeliner and do a cat eye following the natural line of your eye, stop about halfway across and smudge the end, then either continue the liner in your waterline or stop. Take the brown eyeshadow and brush and blend a small amount like liner under just the corner of your bottom lashes. Be sure to blend well! Put a black or dark brown mascara that lengthens and not plumps across the top lashes, focusing on the outside corners, curl, then add a small amount of the mascara on the bottom corner lashes.

**i know that is ALOT of steps, if you'd like a tutorial or some examples I'd be more than happy to do that for you (:

When putting on eyeshaddow put a light or shimmery colour on the lid add light colour also in the tear duct closest to ur nose and add the darkest colour in ur crease on the opposite side closer to ur ear and try extending it a little bit up do winged eyeliner and use it in a very thin line then add white eyeliner pencil into your waterline and brush some darker eyeshadow on the bottom of your eye close to we're u added that dark colour on the top add a bit of white eyeliner also underneath ur water line half way from tear duct to middle and then next to that is the dark use a light shimmery colour close to ur brow bone and use some mascara such as the falsies mascara or something that lengthens and thickens your lashes or you could put fake lashes if your eyes are small it's best to buy falsies that wing out more on the end

there are several things you can do, Olga. for instance, try using white eyeliner on the waterline. another thing you can do is use a black eyeliner on the top lid and make it thicker in the center. that will make your eyes rounder and bigger. you can also use a black liner under your eyes, and make it thicker towards the end. some other tips: highlight the inner corner of your eyes, curl your lashes, apply false eyelashes(the ones where the length is bigger in the middle), apply mascara on the lower lashes, or even false lowelashes.

But if you google and look around for some Japanese blogs (especially on tumblr.) they actually tell you so much. Even though they're in Japanese, you can tell exactly what they're doing through the pictures. ^.^
