Your Eye Makeup Application Revealed

The best makeup application tips can be used by women all over the world to improve on their appearance.  After all, the face is still what everyone looks at and you need to play on your best features to give a good impression. Each of us have different eyes and the best way you can play up your eyes depends upon the amount of time you spend on trying out different styles to find out what suits you. Here are some tips that will get you started.

The Do’s

• Asians typically have smaller eyes and would benefit from eyeliner application.  To make your eyes look bigger, line the lower and upper lash lines.

• Use loose face powder or an eye makeup primer before applying eye shadow for a smoother base.

• Asian eye makeup application can be best achieved with different shades such as black, brown and plum.  Shimmer in bronze colors is also very effective.

• Wrinkles, sagging and fine lines in the corners of the eyes can be covered by round-shaped shading.

• Pale pink can be an effective accent shade for Asian eyes.

• Mascara is a great finish to any shape of eye; it makes the eyes look bigger and the lashes fuller.

• Multi-layering is a great way to add depth to the eyes.  In Asian eye makeup application, you need to use the darkest shades on the lash line and then use lighter shades upwards to the brow line.

• Splurge on eye makeup since the more expensive brands have more pigments and do last longer that the cheaper ones.

• Eyelash curlers can do wonders to the overall effect of your eyes so buy one and use it.

• Blending is important in maintaining the professional and clean look of your eye makeup.  Use a good brush to blend your multi-layered eye shadow.

• Tweeze, thread or wax wayward eyebrow hair.  The eyebrows create a shadow on your eyes and if you want your peepers to look more open, a well-shaped brow can be very efficient.

• Dramatic eye make up application such as smoky eyes look very interesting and intense.  Learn how to do it today.

• There are a few essentials that you must have in your makeup kit and these are - a set of brushes and applicators, liquid eyeliner in black or brown, black mascara, an eye shadow palette that contains neutrals and bright accents, and a white eyeliner.

The Don’ts

• Avoid spending so much money on mascara because you need all the money you can save for the best eye shadows and lipsticks.

• Do not let eyeliner from the bottom lash line meet with the line from the upper lash line, especially if you have small eyes. 

• Do not create a wedge shape with the eye shadow on the corner of the eyes especially if you already have fine lines.

• Do not use foundation on your eyelids and under the brow line because this can make your eye makeup look creased and cakey.

• Never use an intense lip color if you have already played up your eyes with dramatic eye makeup application.  The rule is to choose either the lips or the eyes, never both.

These do’s and don’ts can help you achieve the look you want.  One last tip, try on a new style a day or two before you really go out with it.  This way, you can change it just in case it does not suit you.
