Eye makeup!
Drama.
I like.

The following are done by professionals mostly for fashion shoots (and you'd need a lot of guts to wear them in public, or you have to live in Japan/Hong Kong/France), but I guess even everyday people can just purchase some eye makeup, lock the bathroom door and go crazy.

First up, eyeshadow on steroids.





Next, fake eyelashes. I've heard it's pretty difficult to put on though, and the cheap ones end up looking like spider legs, so I don't think i'll be purchasing any soon. But I really love those dramatic eyelashes, maybe partly because being Asian with squinty eyes makes you want to seek out any way possible to give the illusion of bigger eyes. And I love the photoshoots for Shu Uemura's Tokyo Lash Bar.
