These eye makeup tips will give you beautiful daytime eyes in about five minutes. So, you have time to make gorgeous looks with eye makeup that will last the whole day. I have perfected these eye makeup tips for many years with a long love affair with makeup. These are the main eye makeup tips and steps needed to achieve that perfect six-day look in minutes.
Necessary tools:
– Eye makeup brush(es)
– Neutral base powder eye shadow powder (or face powder)
– Brown powder eye shadow
– Black eyeliner lead
– Highlighter powder in white or light gold
– Black valley
– Liquid under eye concealer (one shade lighter than your face)
Eye Makeup Tips #1: Prep Your Palette for All Day Color
Use an eye makeup brush to break out the eye shadow at the base. Tap the brush to remove the powder. Sweep a neutral base color over your entire eyelid area. The base powder will prepare your skin to accept the pigment of the next eye shadow. This step will make the application easier, the eye shadow color will be brighter, and it will stay on longer. .
Eye Makeup Tips #2: Apply eye shadow during the day
Using the same technique in one step, using brown eyes shadow, starting from the corner of your eye. Brush back and forth in the crease only to get more color in the corner of your lids. Next, lightly blend the color line across the lower lid to remove harsh lines.
Repeat with your other eye. Take a step back and click on the mirror. If the color is not symmetrical, adjust the color as needed to match. I find that using one brown eyeshadow works well for the day and is the best color for most complexions. I only use two or three shades when I have a little more time for a more dramatic evening look.
Eye Makeup Tips #3: How to Apply Eyeliner
Use a sharp, soft black pencil to vividly define your eyes and give you a full lash look. Starting from the outer corner of the eyelid, working slowly, stroke the fine line as close to your lash line as possible. A thinner line should go towards the middle going to the inner corner of each eye.
I find it easier to put it on the outer corners first, moving the lid one at a time (as in the picture). Then I work at the inner corners, applying it in light back and forth strokes, the color on the eyelashes and the lash line.
Eye Makeup Tips #4: Look at the eyes and brighten the eyes
Apply a white or golden powder with a damp brush to the area right under your eyebrow arch. This step draws attention to the top part of your eyes and is the key to polishing the look in my opinion. Finally, if you want, you can sweep black mascara across the upper lashes to thin and darken your lashes (and remove any dust).
Eye Makeup Tips #5: Erase Your Mistakes and Illuminate Your Eyes
Put some concealer under your eyes and blend gently with your finger. Reserve this step for the end so you can erase any leftover eye shadow powder or mistakes you made.
Eye Makeup Safety Tips: Be Clean
Never brush off your makeup (or any makeup in your life). Clean your brush regularly, and keep your makeup tightly closed in a cool, dry place.
