I have a few friends who generally do not like using eyeshadow because they feel as if they do not have the "lids" for it. Some think they don't have a big enough lid, it's not deep-set enough, or even monolids seem to discourage some to really work on their eyeshadow. So they stick to eyeliner and mascara or the the basic swipe all over lid e/s! Some lids are definitely a challenge, even my own eyes I feel are not "e/s easy" because I do not have deep set eyes and my crease is small, I have to sort of create an illusion of a bigger crease. Anyways, one of my long time friends Connie was in the area today and stopped by and I thought I'd give her a little makeover for fun!! She's a semi-monolid but it's definitely different working without much of a crease but I'm always up for a good challenge!!!
This is Connie before:
& this is Connie after:
In the picture you can see how I contoured where I would imagine her crease would be if she had one there. I contoured to create the illusion of a lid and it ended up working out pretty nice!
She got into camera-whore mode lol

Doesn't look like she has a double lid??
What I used:
Clinique Concealer & Sephora Face Powder & Ulta Bronzer for warmth
