Big Blue Eyes - hints tips on your best eye buys - whitening too?

My main feature is my big blue eyes. Mascara wise I use Model Co Fibre Lash and am completely addicted. I tint my lashes blue / black too, and love my lancome eye cream. I'd love to hear what eye products you love, esp if you have big blue eyes. Sometimes the whites of my eyes appear quite red, largely thanks to my two preschool children, but do you use any reputable drops to help them appear whiter? Also what make-up products do you swear by? Thanksx

I've got big blue eyes too and use Boots No 7 Metallic Eyes liner pencil in Blue, and also a L'Oreal shadow trio for blue eyes. Was a bit dubious about it, but it does smokey eyes very well - has a shimmery white, a silver/grey and a dark navy blue shadow in it.

I wear STACKS of mascara - usually Max Factor False Lash Effect - great to add layer up on layer without it going gunky or blobby, and always upon always curl my lashes.

I've also got blue eyes, very pale skin and dark brown hair. I tend to use a brown eyeliner and brown eyeshadows, which I think makes the blue stand out better than using blue make up. No answer for the redness of the whites though - I often have this as well!

I really like the Stila smudge stick eyeliner in "Moray" which is a kind of khaki green/brown eyeliner with a bit of gold in it. I would never have thought of wearing this with blue eyes, but I think it suits me better than the usual browns. Have got dark brown hair and black brows and lashes. Pink blusher also makes your blue eyes stand out more.

I'm very jealous of those of you with big blue eyes.

I don't have big blue eyes but I do have big hazel eyes. However, my eyelashes are very short, fair and stubby with absolutely no curl whatsoever. Is the fibre lash mascara worth the money? Will it make a huge difference to the length, volume and colour of my lashes? It better had for the price.

I completely agree, it is loads of money, although from the amount Ive spent revolutionconfirmed on trying so many others Im sure its not that bad value overall. I do love it, although my sister thinks it comes a close second to YSL faux cils volume mascara. I am on an eternal quest for the perfect mascara but do think this time I have found it. Thanks QuinnFabray re Moray .

there is an eye drop that makes your whites whiter, it really works

I like a copper eyeshadow on my blue eyes
