Now before we dive deep into the to-do-list make sure you understand the available areas for makeup near the eyes correctly as one single miss can cause a lot of trouble. There’s upper lid, brow bone area, lower & upper lash line, waterline and crease in between to apply the shadow. Follow these simple steps and practice a few times beforehand before the final gala evening.
- Wash your eyes thoroughly
It’s important to wash the eyes three four times before starting makeup on these sensitive areas. Remove the slightest eyeliner or kajal leftover, if any, to create a smooth makeup experience.
- Pick out the right brushes
The right brushes keep the amount of makeup being applied on the eyes in check. Pick the right brushes so that you don’t end up creating a mess around the eyes and at the same time the makeup doesn’t go unnoticed as well.
- Pick your base color for eye shadow in the lid
The base color is usually the color that can mix well with your outfit and enhance the overall look. You can pick the base color as light pink or beige color is also just fine for a concealer effect. Once the base color is applied evenly in the lid, highlight it with a darker shade in the crease area to complete the look.
- Apply eye liner
Eyeliner is applied towards the end so that it stands out and gives a direction to the overall eye makeup. You can go for winged eyeliner or keep it simple by applying around the edges. Team it up with a kajal applied evenly around the waterline.
- Highlight your lash lines with a darker shade
Once you are ready with the eye makeup, try on the different eye lashes to check which goes best with your outfit, party theme and your face cut. Eyelashes should be glued perfectly so that they don’t cover your eyes and look a separate part altogether. They should blend in seamlessly and hence invest time to get it perfectly stick to your eyes.
