I just got my first pair of glasses. They’re thick, black grandpa glasses and I love ’em. (Extra accessory? Score.) There’s only one problem: I’m not sure how to do my makeup anymore. For some reason, my normal eye makeup doesn’t look the same when framed in my oversized lenses.
I have tons of questions. Should I tone down my makeup because my eyes are already getting so much attention? What about my eyebrows? Will they compete with the frames? And how should I do my lashes so they don’t hit the lenses? Should I just skip this whole makeup thing all together?

To help calm myself down, I spoke with a few celebrity makeup artists and they all agreed: The number one mistake girls in glasses make is that they don’t wear eye makeup. (There goes my plan. Damn.) So if I have to put on makeup, what should I wear? Luckily, these pros had some great tips for my makeup/glasses conundrum.
From lashes and brows to eyeliner and shadow, they covered every part of the eye — and discussed the dos and don’ts for glasses-wearing gals. By the end of my talk, I was convinced. I can wear makeup with my frames, and it will look as good as it did before I got my new favorite accessory. So put on your frames, and find out how to get gorgeous eyes, even if they’re under glass.
