When eye makeup is applied correctly
it can give your face a pretty polish for an interview or sultry drama for a
fun night out. Once you get the basics down you can use your creativity to
enhance your eyes in a way that uniquely fits who you are and where you’re
going. To apply eye makeup first create a blank canvas with primer foundation
and concealer. Then apply your eyeshadow eyeliner and mascara and you’ll be
ready to go rock your look. Before you get out your makeup you’ll need to clean
your face. Gently massage a cleanser into your skin to remove oil and dirt from
your pores. Use a cleanser that’s made for your skin type whether it’s oily dry
or somewhere in between. Rinse the cleanser off and pat your face dry with a
clean hand towel. Next cover your face with a foundation primer. This will
create a barrier between your skin and your makeup which will keep your skin
looking smooth and your pores looking small. Foundations come in different colors
consistencies and finishes so you’ll need to try a few different ones by
applying them to a section of skin on your face. Once you’ve picked a
foundation apply it to your face with a big makeup brush and then blend it in
with a makeup sponge. Use the pad of your finger to gently dot concealer
underneath your eyes where you see darker and/or bluer coloration. Blend by
continuing to gently pat the area with your finger. Then use your finger to
carefully dot and blend any blemishes or red areas you have. Different brushes
can create different looks. For example a larger brush works best for using a
lighter layer of color all over your lid, while a smaller brush can create a
darker thicker layer of color. Often you will need to use more than one brush
to create the look you want. To create smooth attractive transitions with your
eyeshadow you’ll need to use three colors that are similar in hue but different
in shade. Choose shades that range in lightness and darkness. Use a tapered
precision eye shadow brush to prevent messiness. Lightly dab the eye shadow
with it and tap off the excess. The eye shadow should not be caked onto your
brush but rather lightly coating the bristles. It’s always easier to
start with less and adds more than the other way around. With a clean eye
shadow brush apply the lightest shade to your eyelid until you reach your tear
duct. Also apply the shade just below your eyebrow to bring a pretty brightness
to the right parts of your eye. Use another clean eye shadow brush to apply the
darkest of the three colors you’ve selected to the outside corner of your
eyelid just above your top lashes. Then sweep the color into your crease
focusing more heavily on the outer half in a back and forth motion. Use yet
another brush to apply the middle shade to your entire eyelid. This should pull
the light and dark colors together in a seamless, fluid way. Finish creating
your color transition by blending everything together with a small, soft brush.
Work the brush in small circles to get the best result. You can use
liquid eyeliner pencil eyeliner or eye shadow to line our eyes. Liquid eyeliner
is better if you’re going for edgy and precise or if you want to open up your
eye more. Go with pencil eyeliner if you’re creating a softer or smokier look.
No matter what type of eyeliner you choose applying it correctly will make your
eyes pop. Start on the inside and work your way out while staying as close to
your upper lashes as possible. Move across your upper lash line in tiny
controlled strokes. Go back and fill in the blanks with more small strokes.
While you can apply your eyeliner to just the top applying to the bottom as
well will give you a bolder more intense look. Hold a mascara wand just
underneath your top lashes. Do a sweeping motion upward and outward a few times
to effectively coat your lashes. Wiggle the wand back and forth slightly while
your do this does prevent groups of lashes from clumping together. Do the same
on your bottom lashes. All eye shapes are beautiful don’t get me wrong! I have
small almond shaped eyes myself and I don’t want to toot my own horn, but quite
a few people have complimented me for them Not all of us have big eyes. The
other benefit you can get from eye makeup is that it can make your eyes appear
smaller or bigger depending on how you want it to be. It has the ability to
either make or break the way you appear to others. All you need is to be able
to apply the eye makeup properly
