  • Gloss on the eyelids can be obtained by covering them with a means of M.A.C. Gloss Creme Brillance. This clear gel will create the feeling that your eyes are really wet from water.

  • Eva Garden's super mother of pearl shadows can be applied in a wet way, then you will get a wet eye effect due to the active shine.
  • As an economy option, an ordinary transparent lip gloss can be used, as long as it is not intended to increase their size and does not contain menthol.
