Tutorial: Daily Dolly Eyes For Monolids

Here is a simple dolly eye look for monolids/Asian eyelids that's not too overbearing so that it can be worn daily. It makes the eyes look round and cute like dolls :3

If you would like to find out how I did this look, keep reading! Prodcuts I used at the end!

Step 1: Line the upper lid.

On a primed eye, outline your upper lid with gel eyeliner in a slightly rounded shape while your eyes are open, and extend the end following the curve of your eye. Avoid putting any liner near the inner corner.

Then fill it in.

Step 2: Apply lower mascara as a guideline.

Here, I applied a tiny bit of mascara to the center of the lower lashline, which we will use as a guide for the lower shadow/liner. It will also serve as the continuation of the liner we will use later, because we don't want to fully line the bottom lid!

Step 4: Apply shadow to the lower lashline.

Using an angle brush, apply a light brown eyeshadow from the edge of the eyeliner to the beginning of where we applied the mascara.

This doesn't have to be perfect, as it also serve as a guideline/we will go over it again later.

Step 4: Apply the bottom liner.

Using a tiny stiff brush and a teensy bit of gel eyeliner on the tip, go over the eyeshadow you just applied in a neat (as possible :P), thin line, extending from the beginning of the mascara to the upper liner. (Go around and not in the waterline, as this will make the eyes appear rounder.)

You want to leave a space between the liner and your waterline, but you want it to not look too unnatural, so don't make it too straight or harsh!

Step 5: Reapply eyeshadow.

Using the angle brush, apply the light brown eyeshadow to the upper lid and lower lid lightly.

Step 6: Apply mascara.

Mascara on your natural lashes adds a sweet touch, just don't put too much! Find out how I apply mascara here.

Done!
