Eye Makeup: Few Tips and Tricks That Always Work

Wearing eye shadow sounds exciting and simple, isn't it? But sometimes it can be confusing and tricky because of course, you can't afford to apply any color from that palate right? The colors should have a combination and must mix well. Now, one can be confused about what shades to pick, which brush to use, how to exactly do it, etc. But not to worry, we present before you the complete guide on how to do eye makeup like a professional in just five simple steps. So, let's begin:

Choose the right tools (brushes):

There exist hundreds of makeup brushes in the stores or online sites but of course, you must select the good ones which are hygienic and glides smoothly. Buy some eye-shadow brushes which belong to some good and reputed companies like Sephora, PAC, etc. And just remember don't forget to clean them at least once a week.

Apply concealer to make things even:

Apply concealer before going for any eye-shadow in order to hide those veins or reddish complexion on the eyelids.

Wear tapes for any messy fallout:

This hack completely works. You could apply tapes under your eye to avoid any messy fallout while applying eye-shadow. Later just remove it whenever you are done.

Apply base on the lids:

the next step is to wear a base on your lids. The eye-shadow brush just sweeps evenly a base with color as per your look. For brown eyes, a shimmery base will look elegant. If one is willing for smoky eyes then go for a black one. If you want to go for a bold, elegant look then you could fill the base till the brow bones but if you need a simple casual look then you could fill till the crease.

Always choose a dark shade for the eye crease:

darker shade attracts more light so by applying dark color into the crease, the eyes would appear to look more popper adding dimension to the correct area.

Apply dark color into the lash lines:

If eyeliners aren't your cup of tea then you can always color your lash line with a darker shade. It will make the eyes appear wider and lashes thicker. Pick up the flat, short-bristled brush and dab the color at the edges of the upper eyelashes following the lower one. Now, if you are facing some kind of eye allergy or eye irritation, then it is better to avoid applying it. For those liquid eyeliners are always an option.

Highlight with a shimmery shade:

wear shimmery pale eyeshadow or can opt for a pencil under your brow to make it pop and add some lift to it. Now you could choose a light pearl shade for the inner corner of the eye to make it look brighter and lighten up. Lastly, cover your eyelashes with some coats of mascara and that is all.
