Eye Makeup Tips

If you’re looking for a new look, you may want to start with your eye makeup. Changing your look from day to evening is easy with the right eye shadow, and with the right eye makeup tips, you can change the look of your whole face. Here are a few suggestions that will definitely help.

For a more dramatic look when it comes to eye makeup, you may want to try colored mascara. While most of these cosmetics are black or dark brown, you can also try dark blue shades to illuminate the eyes and to give your eyes a ‘pop.’ This way, you won’t have to put as much eye shadow on. Even if you’re using more traditional shades of mascara, you should make sure that you use less of the makeup on your lower lashes so that it will not smear and give your eyes a tired look. About two or three coats of mascara on the top lashes is usually enough to give your lashes a romantic, lengthy look.

When it comes to eyeliner, you should apply the liner as close to the lashes as possible. This way, you won’t have create a line or space between the liner and the lashes–which can misshape the eye.

You should also open your mouth slightly when you’re applying eyeliner, since this will relax the eye muscles.

Eye makeup tips should also include having your eyebrows shaped correctly. Your brows will help to shape your face, and your eye shadow will look much better when you have the right brow shape for your face shape. If you have an oval face or eyes that are spread out, it’s best to have a definite arch with making the brows too boxy; rounder brows are best for people with smaller, rounded eyes and heart-shaped faces. Using a brow powder will fill in the brows and make your face look more alive, and you won’t have to apply as much makeup to the rest of your face.

When it comes to eye shadow, these eye makeup tips will definitely help–use the lightest shade of the eye shadow for the brow bone, and the medium shade for the actual eye lid. The darker shades can be used for the outside of the eye to make the eye area bigger, and the most colorful color in the eye shadow set should be used for the crease between the eyelid and brow. This is a great look for daytime wear, and for nighttime, you may want to add a darker shadow to the lid for the ‘smoky eye’ look.p>
