If you've ever had a late night or spent too much time in front of a computer screen (who hasn't, right?), then you've probably experienced dull, less-than-white, (maybe even, ugh, blood-shot) eyes. While you can always empty a bottle of Visine into your peepers, there are also some pretty great beauty tricks that work wonders to make the whites of your eyes appear a whole lot whiter. And, unlike the drops, the effect will last all day.Try a blue mascara. When you paint your lashes a sapphire shade, they reflect off of your eyes and give them an almost-glow. The effect is subtle, but you'll be able to see the hint of blue when you're outside—it's very cool. Benefit makes an awesome version called Bad Gal Blue.
Line the inner rims of your eyes with peach pencil. Makeup artist Paula Dorf created a liner called Baby Eyes just for this purpose. It covers up redness and makes you look instantly more awake.
Dab shimmery white shadow in the inner corners. This is awesome for any ethereal makeup look, but it's also an amazing way to make your eyes look bigger and brighter. Try NYX Single Eyeshadow in White.
