How To Apply Eye Shadow

Instructions

• First decide the color you want to use on the eyes. The secret lies in blending the colors. Any of the three four colors you choose will look good only if they are mixed well. There must not be any lines to show where the color starts or stops.
• Next step is to apply the base color to the eye lids. Use a fine blunt-ended brush to apply the base color to the entire lid from inside to outside corner of the eye.
• Dark color should be applied on eyelids from lash line to the crease in the eyelid. Don’t extend it upwards. Make sure the bold and the darker color goes well with your eye color.
• Highlight color should be applied to the brow bone and extend to the outer end of the brow. This should be the lightest color and should give a pearly finish to the lids.
• The medium shade from your eye shadow box should be applied on the upper eye lid only, just below the eyelid crease to the brow bone.
• In the end, with a fine brush apply a little shadow along the lower lash line to give a glamorous party look. You can omit this step if you wish to have a light and a day makeup. Now apply the rest of your eye makeup. Be careful not to smudge mascara or eyeliner on your eye shadow.
