The Eyeshadow Makeover
Beautiful eyes is one thing that every woman wants, and eyeshadow plays a very important role in making your eyes look beautiful. If you want to highlight your eyes as the most notice-worthy feature of your face, you only need a good eyeshadow and the proper technique to apply it on your face. But what is really important is that the eyeshadow application preserves the natural features of your eyes without overdoing the color.
Any eyeshadow design technique is based on making layers to get a certain desired effect in the eyes. Different eyes need different care. For instance, if you have long and beautiful lashes, your eyes need less amounts of eyeshadow and more amounts of mascara to get a natural, elegant look. Here are a few steps that you can use to makeover your face by applying eyeshadows in an effective way by creating layers.
The first step is to apply a neutral concealer that is the same shade as your skin tone. Now apply a medium color base shade to your entire eye lid from your lash line to the eye brow. Your first layer is created.
The next layer should be applied to the lower part of your eye lid. It should be little blended upward into the base shade. The third layer should be added just at the lash line and blended to the outer corners of your eyes. This gives depth to your eyes. Usually, the eyeshadow is applied using a brush or a sponge. If the blending is more concentrated, it can be done using just your clean fingers. There are some brands which recommend finger application. You can choose any of the good brands based on how you want to use them. Every brand has some uniqueness. For example – Elizabeth Arden eyeshadow comes in variety of shades. It contains natural ingredients like rosemary and marshmallow extracts. The best benefits of this eyeshadow is the fact that it is both smudge proof and crease proof. It also comes in 16 shades.
Never try to match the shade of your eyeshadow with the color of your clothes or your eyes. It takes away all the attention to the eyes and the overall effect is lost. Blue eyeshadows look good on fair or dark skins with certain hair colors like black or platinum and with certain eye colors like gray or brown. If you keep these small tips in mind while applying eyeshadow, you can easily makeover your face.
