You can find the best make up looks for you only through experimentation. So reach for your eyeshadow collection and try one of the following suggestions:
Return the freshness to your face with pink and golden-yellow colors. This colorful combination will ‘open up’ your eyes.
Use liquid eyeliner to a contour the shape around the eyes and for more special effect, create ‘wings’ on the outer corner of the eyes.
Make smoky eyes with brown and burgundy color. The earth tones will help you to highlight the color of your eyes, whether they are brown, green or blue.
For outlining use eye pencil that is not too sharp. That way you will get ‘soft’ thick lines.
Purple makeup is an absolute hit this season, and besides, it is known that the violet shades suit all eye colors. These are two strong enough reasons to try a seductive smoky eyes look with purple and black colors.
Make your lower lid more interesting. With black eye pencil outline the natural line of the lower eye lid and continue the line to create a wing on the outer corner of the lower lid. Make a wing on the upper lid too, so you will create ‘double wing’. Leave a little ‘empty’ space between the wings.
Do not forget to highlight the area under the brow and the area around the inner corner of your eyes with white eyeshadow.
If you are not fan of dramatic makeup, but you still want something striking, then choose the simpler version of the classic smokey eyes look.
For a base, use a brown eyeshadow. Line the upper and the lower eye lid, then apply black eye shadow just on the corners. Using a small brush, blend the two eyeshadows so that its intensity will be smoked and the two shadows will be blended into one another.
Finish the look by highlighting the area under the brow with a nude eyeshadow and apply mascara.
Yellow, orange, blue and pink eye shadows were among the most popular eyeshadows used by the makeup artists in the fashion shows for season spring / summer 2011. Do not say that yellow makeup do not suit your eyes before you test whether it is true.
Apply the bright shades on the outer end of the lower lid and on the upper lid. Apply black eye pencil just on the outer half of the upper lid.
