During treatment, you may feel your eyes aren’t bright and seem to “disappear.” However, it’s possible to brighten, define and emphasize eyes with shadow and liner.

Coordinated shadows offer easy shading impact. You may find jewel tones wake up your face better than earthy hues. Attend a LGFB group program for first-hand color tips and application techniques.

The Expert Approach
Apply the lightest shade from lid to brow bone as a base. Next, add the medium shade to the lid from lashes to crease. For extra definition, add the deepest shade along the crease of the eye. Blend to soften.

Liner provides even greater emphasis to the eye and helps recreate the look of full lashes. Dark skin tones can use black liner, while light and medium skin tones get a more natural look using charcoal or dark brown shades. LGFB cosmetologists can offer insights on other color options, too.

To Apply
Draw a thin line along the top of the upper lid at the lash line, then beneath the lower lash line (not inside the rim). Unlike liquid liner, pencil can be blended for a softer effect. A thinly smudged line of dark shadow works, too.

Note: Do not tattoo permanent make-up on your skin before or during cancer treatment. Since your immune system may be weaker now, it poses a greater risk of infection.
