A renowned artist Cory Walia believes, “the most distinct facet of a bride’s face is her eyes and it is important to get an eye look that augments the shape of the eyes.” He also believes that a well-shaped eyebrow can add a dramatic charm to the bridal look and therefore, it should be well refined with an eyebrow filler. As most of the Indians have oblong eyes, so he suggests to highlight it by using black eyeliner on the upper eyelids and a kajal pencil line for the insides. The brides with deep-set small eyes should use the dark shade in the inner corners of the eyes with a lot of mascara to glam it up.
