http://eyemakeuptips.blogspot.com/ - this site will tell you about how to do your eye makeup for all kinds of eyes.

Here is a great video on how to get a smokey eye from Victoria Secret: http://www.facebook.com/video/video.php?v=170318008342

Color Guide:

Blue Eyes

To emphasize blue eyes use gray, rose, mauve, purple, orange, peach, gold, or any shade of bronze. When selecting a shade of blue to go with the eyes follow the rule of opposites. (If the eye is dark blue, use sky blue; if the eye is icy blue, use darker blues, even indigo.)

Green Eyes

To emphasize green eyes use chestnut, royal purple, violet, plum, forest green, and brown. If the iris is a deep green, try using a darker eye shadow; if the iris is a pale green use a pale green eye shadow.

Hazel Eyes

To emphasize the green in hazel eyes use royal purple, rose, violet, and forest green. To make the eye more brown, use chestnut.

Brown Eyes

To emphasize brown eyes use copper, bronze, champagne, beige, forest green, gold, and other metallics. Using shades of green will complement brown eyes.

Brown-Black Eyes

To emphasize deep brown eyes use tones that are lighter and pearly to bounce more light. Try a sheer green.

there's the smokey eyes. where you put black on first for the base then you just shake some off with a powder brush then you put a different color on and do the same in the beginning then if you want you could do the same on the bottom to make it look like eye liner:)

Eyeliner on smaller eyes can make the eye appear even smaller. Escpecially when applied to the lower eyelid. Try to avoid harsh lines altogether. Apply your liner to upper lid then smudge it in with an angle brush or q-tip.
You should try to go for eyeshadows the opposite color of your eye. Like green or blue eyes, use warmer colors like pinks, plums magentas, reddish browns. Brown eyes, use the cooler colors like greens, blues, etc.
Another tip to really open your eyes, and wake your face is to apply a pale pink, white, or another light shade of shadow depending on your skin tone, and apply it on the brow bone just below the eyebrow, and in the inner corners of your eyes.

for a natural look.. always use netual colors.. small eyes do not want to apply liner to the waterline of their eyes.. go under the waterline.. also you can apply a white liner to the water line. which opens up your eyes..

Look on youtube for videos by xsparkage (http://www.youtube.com/user/xsparkage). She has so many videos on how to do makeup, from subtle looks all the way to crazy colorful ones. I have small eyes, so not all of her advice work for me as well, but I learned something from each one of her many videos.

I don't know too, too much about applying makeup to smaller eyes and eyelids; but I do know that curling eyelashes (every last one) really makes eyes stand out. My eyelashes are not extremely long, but curling them for thirty seconds to a minute makes them look much longer and makes my eyes much more noticeable.

highlighting your eyes with a white or silver eyeliner makes your eyes pop out more.
By the way, i have small eyes too and eyeliner sooo does not make your eyes look smaller it really depends on how you use it.
BY using liquid eyeliner, pencil eyeliner and a silver eyeliner i can make my eyes look bigger.
first of all highlight your brow bone, and bottom eyelid close to the lash line and near the tear ducts.
apply about 2mm thick liquid eyeliner on the top, close to the lash line and end with a slight flick on the end.
with the pencil eyeliner start from the end of the bottom lashline and draw till the middle of the lid.
Get the silver eyeliner again and highlight the bottom lashline which does not have the normal eyeliner drawn on.
this way with the right amount of light and dark your eyes will seem bigger :)

to make eyes look bigger, apply a white eyeliner (or really light shadow) to the inner corner of your eye, and then have a darker color just on the outer edge of the eye. Works wonders
