Applying Eyeshadow:

Applying eyeshadow sounds simple enough, but there are some tiny tricks to doing it so that people end up with the best results. Below are some tips about how to apply eye makeup and achieving a more natural look, using less makeup instead of loads of it. Other tips and information are included here as well.

Eye Makeup Application

• Choose three shades, all similar, like all browns and so forth
• Using more eye makeup does not mean that it will make your face look nicer – it might make it look less natural and your goal is to highlight features and not overdo it

Applying Eyeshadow: Dark Shades:

Begin with darker shades and apply them to the eyelids first. Start from the eyelash line and work your way toward the eye creases near the eyelids.

Medium Eye Shades

Put the medium shades on the areas just beneath each eyelid crinkle and work your way to each eyebrow. If you want to, you can opt to cover the complete eyelid area with the medium shade at the beginning.

Highlighting each Eye

You have chosen three shades of eye makeup. Choose the lightest color now. Put it on the eyes, closest to the brows, extending a bit beyond the outside edge of the brows. This generally gives a glistening polish.

Three Basic Steps for Applying Eyeshadow

Part One

• Put the medium shade on first
• When putting any face paint on, make certain that all borders are plumed so the shades diminish bit by bit
• You do not want any clear outlines appearing where each shade begins and ends
• Always blend in each coat or application of makeup thoroughly
• It is a good idea to use a makeup brush when applying powders, always
• Foam brushes do not work as well as brushes and the foam materials gather bacteria faster, as well as wear out quicker

Part Two

• Put on the darker color next – onto the eyelids
• It is a good idea to begin in the center of the eyelids and work your way to the outer edges, coating the whole eyelid area
• Make certain to cover and thoroughly blend in the makeup to the creases
• If you have a narrower eye makeup brush, it might be a good idea to attempt deepening the wrinkle area with a darker color, only on the wrinkle section – this method gives a diverse kind of result

Part Three

• Now for the highlighting
• Put on the first layer of the underlining makeup to the eyebrow borders

When it comes to applying eyeshadow and other types of makeup, one can put makeup on numerous ways. Everybody likes to try new things, especially when it comes to making the face look beautiful and natural. Each person has a unique type of bone structure in the face, so some ideas might work better for some folks than they will for others. As already mentioned though, numerous makeup application methods exist nowadays, so people can find something that works for them easily.

Extra Tips for How to Put Eyeshadow on

If you wish to give your eye makeup an additional remaining strength, there are translucent foundations products on the market today that help people achieve this goal.

Before and During Makeup Applications:

• Always cleanse the face thoroughly and gently before putting makeup on – use lukewarm water and mild, non-deodorant soap
• Thoroughly rinse face with cool water and pat it dry – do not rub it dry
• Put foundation on first and allow it to dry naturally
• Put on the concealer, if you choose to use some – it does help keep the makeup on longer, less fading
• Put on the eyeshadow – follow tips above if you want to
• Put the eyeliner on
• Next is the mascara application – waterproof makeup is best
• Put the blush on next – onto the cheekbone – a tiny bit first and if you need more later, you can add some
• Put on the powder makeup next
• Finally, apply the lipstick or lip-gloss – you can use lip liner too, but do not use too dark of a shade

The main goal with applying eyeshadow and other face paint is to highlight the best features of your face and not apply too much eyeshadow, blush, eyeliner, lipstick or lip-gloss. Some folks might believe that they need to add extra to their face, because it wears off fast, or it seems to soak into the skin and evaporate. More than likely, this occurs for two reasons. One reason is that the makeup is of a cheaper brand. The second reason is that the skin is too dry, meaning that an individual does not drink enough water; therefore leaving the skin dehydrated.
