Q: How do stars get their eyelids so shiny? I don't think it's eyeshadow, it's really pretty. It goes above where your eyeshadow goes, so it fills up the rest of your eyelid up until your eyebrow. I can't find a picture of it, but a lot of the time models have it on.
Another possibility besides the one already mentioned is that some people smear some Vaseline on top of their eyelids so that light catches it and gives their face a more dewy look.
