Hi there! One tip is to never do the cat eye using your eyeliner since it lengthens your eyes and make it look smaller. Avoid using dark colors on your lids, opt for lighter shades like gray, white and pastels and put brown eyeliner on the insides of your eyes.

I agree...I also learned that using white eyeliner on your lower lid can make your eyes looks bigger.

As mentioned above, I do darker eyeliner on my upper lids and white eyeliner on my waterline (lower lids). I also apply quite a bit of mascara.
As for colors, I think most colors are fine. Personally, I think eyeliner tends to look kind of funny on East Asian people since most of us don't have that defined brow bone that Caucasian people do. I think Asians tend to lean more towards natural colors or maybe a dark green or purple.

I have chinky eyes too.
To make my eyes appear larger and brighter, i first put mascara to elongate my lashes . Then, i also enhance my eyebrow by brushing some eyeliner to it. That way, it matches my mascara color. My brows are black and so with my mascara and eyeliner. I put some eyeliner on my lower lids.
Then for eyeshadow, i use earth color like brown on my entire eyelid, and extend it to the sides of my nose to have a deep set eyes and define my nose bridge.
But for better ideas you can go to the net and look for eye make-ups that suits chinky eyes.
