Eye makeup can help you turn yourself into a new person. For someone new to this process, it may seem daunting, but with the right techniques, insights, products, and tutorials, you can help yourself transform your looks. Whether it is casual or formal, you can elevate your game with this article.

Step 1. Prep your eyes

Before applying makeup around your eyes, you should clean your eyes carefully and tenderly to remove all contaminants around your eye region so that it can help with the makeup’s staying ability and give long-lasting results.

Now apply the first product, an eye primer; this can help the makeup’s staying time and help avoid creases altogether, giving you a natural look.

 

Step 2. Concealer

It is important, and your eyes look brighter so that your makeup can look more vibrant. And for that, apply a little dot of concealer under your eyes to give you that bright look.

If you have light veins around that region, apply a little concealer there too to avoid the ragged look.

 

Step 3: Choose Your Eyeshadow Colors

Using eyeshadow is an intricate process, so it is better for beginners to use less to maintain a better look. Choose according to your skin type so that you don’t get overshadowed by their bold colors.

 

To keep things easy, choose three shades:

1. A base color: This should be a light shade so that it brightens your skin type.
2. A transition color: This shade is typically a soft medium brown or warm taupe. It will be used in the crease of your eyelid to create dimension.
3. A darker shade. This will be applied along your lash line or in the outer corner of your eyelid for depth.
4. Apply the Base Shade

Now, after using an eyeshadow brush, spring it across your eye and be careful; use the lightest shade so that it helps create an even canvas.

You can also make your eyebrow look larger by applying a highlight to it.

5: Apply the Transition Colour

Now, what we mentioned before, the transition shade will redefine your crease, creating a mirage of depth. To define the crease, tenderly press your finger above the eye fold and apply the fluffy crease brush to apply the aforementioned transition shade and blend it in a to-and-fro manner. Blending will help avoid wrinkles.

 

Make sure to choose a soft color to give your eye a natural look. It’s good to use color naturally to not do more.

Step 6: Use the Darker Shade to Add Depth

Now, dip a tiny, thick brush into the darker eyeshadow. Apply the shade to the outer corner of your eyelid, where the lid meets the crease, after tapping off any excess to prevent fallout. Don’t go too deep into the center of the lid with this shade; instead, blend it inwards a little. This method adds a little drama and gives the appearance of larger eyes. You may also use the dark shade down your lower lash line for even more definition. Just make sure you blend it thoroughly so the hue is gentle rather than harsh.

 

Step 7: Continue to blend

Blending is one of the most crucial processes in applying eye makeup. Smooth blending is the secret to applying eye makeup in a refined, expert manner. Examine every region where eyeshadow meets with a clean blending brush, paying special attention to the area where your lighter and darker colors transition. This guarantees that the hues will progressively blend into one another and that there are no sharp edges.

Step 8: Apply Eyeliner

To define the eyes more, the next step is eyeliner. Use the pencil eyeliner instead of liquid eyeliner because it’s easy to use for beginners. Start applying from the inner side of the eye. Try to keep the line close to the lashes. If you want a natural look, then leave the line thicker toward the outer corner.
