Draw A Triangle With Concealer
The triangle concealer trick isn't widely known, but it really works. The concept is that it doesn't just brighten the under-eye area, but also highlights the cheek beneath it. All you do is draw an inverted triangle using concealer, with the tip of the triangle reaching into your cheek slighly higher than the bottom of your nose. Then gently pat the concealer in.
This trick works because the traditional way of using concealer just under your eyes may sometimes draw unwanted attention to the areas you are trying to cover up.

Brighten Your Eyes With Nude Eyeliner
Many people opt for black or brown eyeliner to draw attention to the eyes, but this doesn't usually create a brighter look. Instead, a darker eyeliner may actually make your eyes appear smaller.
Using an eyeliner closer to your own skin tone can help brighten the appearance of tired eyes.
“Unlike dark liners, which can shrink eyes and highlight redness, [this] helps eyes shine without overpowering soft, subtle hue complements all eye colors, and neutralizes inner-rim redness so whites appear brighter and eyes look wide awake,” celebrity makeup artist Jami Svay told Women's World.

Use Lengthening Mascara
Our eyelashes get thinner as we age, so the best way to emphasize them is to opt for a lengthening mascara to bring out natural-looking definition. Many women believe the best choice for this is a volumizing mascara, but thinner eyelashes have a harder time holding the weight of a heavy formula.
Lengthening mascaras can help promote a more lively and energized appearance for the eyes.

Fill Out Your Eyebrows
For many people, eyebrows tend to thin out and droop as we age. This can easily be combatted by using a brow pencil or pomade to fill out the look of thinner brows and create a healthy-looking shape.
Pick a tone that matches your hair or is just a tiny bit darker than your hair to create a natural-looking look that emphasizes and brightens the eyes.
