Among the wide range of cosmetics designed to beautify us every day, there are must-haves. Lipstick, mascara or even eye shadow are the big favorites of women since always. Used to highlight our natural assets, these products come in different forms. In this article, we’ll explain how to play with eye shadows to enhance your eyes. We will see what are the different types of eye shadows, how to choose the color, and how to apply your eyeshadow well.
Initially, available only in powder form, eyeshadows are now available in several textures and finishes so that each can find the version that suits it. To get the desired result: day or evening makeup, natural effect or more sophisticated, it is essential to know the different types of eye shadows that exist on the market. To help you get a clearer picture, here is a quick recap:
The palette of shades is wide for eyeshadows. While some colours may appeal to you at first glance, you are not sure if they are right for your face.
To avoid this, there are some basic rules to follow in choosing your eye shadow. First of all, you should know that eye colour is the first criterion to consider when choosing the right eye shadow.
People with brown eyes will have the great advantage of being able (almost) to afford anything. However, some shades will particularly enhance your face, such as green, purple or colours that are orange-like. For a glamorous and rock look, we recommend combining a black or brown liner with a silver or bluish eye shadow.
Green eyes, which are quite rare, deserve to be particularly valued. For makeup, bet on the wide range of violet and its derivatives: purple, plum, and even fuchsia. Applied in smoky eye, these powerful colours will add structure to your eyes. If you prefer to opt for a more discreet shade, know that gray and silver, or copper brown will delicately sublimate the color of your iris.
Finally, blue eyes will prefer nude beige, gold or copper for a day makeup. You can, of course, use warmer shades, but it will be important to go sparingly so as not to overload the natural beauty and clarity of your eyes. For the evening, more sustained makeup based on brown or coral will give a more sophisticated appearance. And for a fatal rendering, don’t hesitate to combine blue with purple in smoky eye.
While eye colour is the key to choosing your eyeshadow well, be aware that skin tone, hair colour, but also the outfit you wear will all play a role.
The thin skin of the eyelid and the proximity to the mucous membrane of the eyes make this area quite sensitive. You will then need to pay extra attention to.
prepare your eyelids and apply your makeup well
Above all, make sure that your eyelids, like the rest of your face, are completely hydrated. To prevent leaks and optimize the hold of our eyeshadow, we coat the eyelid with a fixing base. You can then proceed to the eye makeup step to sublimate the look or correct some small imperfections.
This is usually done by applying the strongest shade to the lash line on the mobile eyelid. You then shade with lighter shades to the area under the eyebrows, making sure to create a “fade” effect. To fix it, you then place a eye primer. Several tools can be used, from brushes to fingers, foam tips and sponges.
We hope this article has helped you understand how to play with eye shadows to enhance your eyes. We would like to emphasize that the eyes are a fragile part of our face and that we must especially pamper them. To do this, we advise you when buying your cosmetics, to rely on the known and recognized brands and to be vigilant about the composition of your eyeshadows.
