Eyeshadow is one of the integral parts of good makeup. I have heard many people saying putting on eyeshadow is not one of the difficult parts of makeup but I say a good eyeshadow is what is difficult to get correct. Right matildas? To achieve perfect makeup, every aspect needs to be correct. Makeup is, all in all, a totally different subject, technical and vast. In this article let us get familiar with a Step by step guide to how to apply eyeshadow.
How to choose the right combinations of colors? How to choose the right palette? With so many options available in front of us one can easily get confused. Let us understand the key steps towards perfect eyeshadow:
1. Makeup brushes
Whatever part of makeup that you are doing, your choice of brushes play a very crucial role in the end results of your make up. Investing in good makeup products/ tools is a wise choice. Better tools stick around for a longer period of time and do not harm your skin, that is why investing in them is a wise choice.
But just buying good tools is not enough, keeping your brushes clean and maintaining hygiene is also very important. This is a list of brush that I came up for you to choose from:
- Best Overall: It Cosmetics Heavenly Luxe No-Tug Dual Eyeshadow Brush
- Best Drugstore: EcoTools Duo Eyeshadow Makeup Brush Set.
- Best Budget: Real Techniques Eyeshadow Makeup Brush Set
- Best Value: BS-SMALL Premium Synthetic Kabuki Makeup Brush Set.
2. Base eyeshadow to the eyelid
The way I see it matildas, experimenting is an awesome way to get well informed. But when sometimes it is good if you seek out someone who is knowledgeable, because at times there are technical aspects related to it. apply your base color on your lids. depending on the type of look you are going for choosing your base shade and start applying from your eyelids towards your brow bone for a bolder look. or you can place the color into the crease of your eye when your eyes are open, and work down toward the lash line.
3. Dark shadow and eye crease
Adding dark colors to your eyes can make them pop out. use a domed brush to apply dark shadow and sweep it right along the eye socket, following the shape of your eye between your brow bone and eyelid.
4. Correct rimming of lash lines
Use a flat, short-bristled brush, to press the dark color along the edges of your upper eyelid where your eyelashes begin, and along the lower lash line. This look can make your eyes look thicker and wider.
5. Shimmery highlight
When I scroll downs my insta feed, I see this shimmery eyeshadow look is everywhere. Add the same pearly light color to the inner corner of the eye to brighten things up, too. Finish with a few coats of our favorite mascara, and you’re good to go.
And not just a list of brushes but let us also provide you with a list of best eyeshadow palettes through reliable sources:
