Now one of the most important steps that you will take in your makeup routine is applying eye shadow. It all boils down to getting the look that is right for your features and what your preference is. And remember, practice makes perfect, so have patience and you will get it right in no time. So here we go:
1.You will want to apply a base coat to the eyes. Applying a Loose Powder will do the trick. Gives the appearance of a nice pallette.
2. You will want to blend this powder so that it looks even. A good trick is to apply it to just one eye, and use the powder to apply to the other eye. You’ll get to see how the eyes blend and know how much to work on either eye to get them to match. Remember, practice.
3. If you are going for the dramatic eyes look, , dip it into some water, athen into the eye shadow. Works all the time and the dramatic look is quite startling!! Eyes will definitely turn!
4. For the people that have Blue Eyes, the colors to use should be: wear purple, violet, taupe, gray, deep blue, and black. For the crazy, include fuchsia, turquoise, and silver.
5. For the people with Green Eyes (like myself), wear purple, plum, forest green, brown, and khaki. If you wwant to get crazy, include light green, gold, and bright purple.
6. For all you brown eyed people, , the colors to wear are champagne, copper, brown, apricot, khaki, and beige. the truly chique and hip ones will include royal blue, tangerine, hand Hot Pink.
7. the universal color which is for everyone is navy, Powder Blue, and charcoal. The crazy colors include silver.
8. Now if you’re looking to make your eyes (and hence yourself) look younger, in the inner corner of the eye apply a lighter shadow.
9. On the other hand, , use a light color on the inner corner, and a darker shade in the middle of the eye area in order to make your eyes look larger.
10. as you keep practicing and getting better, you will see that your eye shadow looks more natural and symmetrical.
11. Dark shadow will only be applied to the eyelids from the lash line to the crease in the eyelid. Also, you will want to apply medium shadow from just below the eyelid crease to the brow bone.
12. Now in order to make your features stand out in the crowd, you will want to apply the Highlight along the brow of the bone. This is important and where most people get it wrong. Make sure this is done this way.
And that is it. Applying eye shadow in this fashion will make you look your absolute best. And these steps are easy to follow, so practice because makes perfect.
Also remember to jot down what works best for you, because every person is different. and have someone else around, a person that you can trust who can give you an honest opinion of your work.
So get to work, and make those eyes the best that they can be with correct eye shadow application!
