Applying eyeshadow becomes easier when you choose the best shades to match your eye shape and needs. You must learn first how to properly use the eyeshadow brushes. Most ladies just utilize only one shade of eyeshadow. This looks quite decent but if you really want to make your eyeshadow more impressive, you simply need to add more shades that are included in most of the eyeshadow palettes.
You can also utilize three different shades of eyeshadow for your eyes, a light tone, a medium tone, and a dark shade (except for ladies with oval-molded eyes, who just need to utilize two shades). Most eyeshadow palettes already include various shades, however, you may blend various shades according to your taste.
Now, you’ll need to place various colors in different places according to the shape of your eye. Generally, there are three shapes of eyes: oval eyes, deep eyes, and narrow eyes. For those people with deep eyes, you should not make your eyes appear excessively sunken. You will need to put the medium eyeshadow close to the outer edges of your eye while covering the remainder of your eyelid with the lighter eyeshadow. For those people with shallower eyes, you should put the medium eyeshadow all over your eyelid, and the lighter one close to the bottom. This deepens the presence of your eyelids. Ladies with oval eyes should simply utilize the lighter eyeshadow on their eyelids.
When doing the above steps, you need to put the lighter shade of eyeshadow on first. Then you can put on the darker eyeshadow. Many eyeshadow guides suggest the opposite, however, it is a mistake. It makes it simpler to mix your eyeshadow when the medium eyeshadow is on top. What’s more, put your lighter eyeshadow on your whole eyelid prior to applying the medium eyeshadow. This makes mixing a lot simpler.
Then, you should apply your dark eyeshadow with a narrow brush all along your eyelid with your eyelashes. In case you have oval eyes, this is the place where you should put on your medium eyeshadow.
At last, you should mix your eyeshadow without making it appear smudged. This takes some training, however, putting the lighter tones on first makes it simpler. Get a white mixing brush, and rub it along where the shades meet to get rid of the “lines”. The objective is to make it look as if various shades mix into one another, rather than separate lines.
Congrats, you’ve effectively applied your eyeshadow!
