How to do your eye makeup well?

How to apply eye makeup properly? Applying eye makeup well is the key to successful makeup. It can be subtle or more prominent but must be adapted to the eye color. Certain tips can enhance the eyes. How to apply eye makeup when you're a beginner As a general rule, we favor contrasts and nuances. A smoothing base to start For the longest-lasting result, apply a neutral smoothing base. It can be transparent, iridescent, colored… It will catch more light if it is iridescent. Apply it over the entire mobile eyelid up to the brow bone. Concealer hides signs of fatigue. It is applied to shaded areas, in the hollow of dark circles, at the inner corner of the eye, under the outer corner. Working on your eyebrows Eyebrows are part of eye makeup. It is good practice to leave them as natural as possible and only remove what is strictly necessary. For an optimal result, entrust your eyebrows to professional hands; you will only have to do regular maintenance. The right color is one that is just between the shade of the eyebrows and that of the hair. Eyeshadow to enhance the color of the iris The choice of eyeshadow color depends on your iris color. The easiest way is to use a color wheel to find complementary colors. Eyeshadow texture is a personal matter. Powder eyeshadows are easier to use for working on makeup, creating effects. Cream eyeshadows are perfect for quick makeup. With a powder eyeshadow, you can choose three colors. The lightest color is applied over the entire mobile eyelid. The intermediate color covers the crease of the eyelid. The darkest is placed in the outer corner of the eye. You can then blend the three colors with your finger or a blending brush to create a nice gradient. Essential mascara Mascara is essential to give volume and length to your lashes. You can start by using an eyelash curler, placing it at the root of the lashes and pressing. Repeat the movement along the entire length of the lashes. Then apply mascara to the upper lashes, starting from the base of the lashes and moving outwards. Make zigzags to coat them well. For a more intense result, repeat the operation several times. To lengthen lashes, use a mascara with a fine brush. It allows you not to apply too much product while being very easy to handle. Similarly, to avoid clumps, choose your mascara brush carefully. If the lashes are rather short, opt for a brush that can catch all the lashes one by one, even the shortest ones. Black mascara can be paired with all iris colors. At Le Rouge Français, Médusa is a milky treatment elixir that coats, protects, strengthens, and boosts the growth of eyelashes and eyebrows. It is used as a three-month renewable course, in the morning before applying mascara and in the evening after removing makeup. Applied to the eyebrows, it acts as a setting gel. Composed of clover and mung bean extract, it stimulates eyelash growth; Roman chamomile hydrolate is soothing, while castor oil nourishes and strengthens. It's perfect before applying Le Noir Cassiopée mascara. Eyeliner to accentuate Kohl pencil can slightly modify the shape of the eye. Opt for a non-greasy pencil that will last all day. For small eyes, use a white pencil in the inner corner of the eye to open it up more. Use a black pencil for the outer part. To correct a shape that is too round, apply a dark pencil line in the inner corner but not all around the contour. The pencil is generally used along the lower lash line on the contour of the eye. Eyeliner for a doe-eyed look Eyeliner can be in the form of a pencil, felt-tip pen, or brush. The pencil is easier to use for a natural and subtle look. The felt-tip pen is perfect for beginners because it allows you to draw a clean line in one stroke. The brush requires a little experience to achieve a perfect result. The color of the eyeliner should be chosen according to the eye color. It should be complementary, but black remains a safe bet. The easiest way is to draw a first line with a kohl pencil and then go over it with eyeliner. For a better result, pull lightly on the eyelid to smooth it and draw a line that goes from the inside to the outside. A highlighter To make the eyes even brighter, apply small touches of highlighter on the brow bone, in the inner corner of the eyes, and on the bridge of the nose. Achieving natural makeup For natural brown eye makeup, opt for pinkish shades that bring modernity and warmth. Natural green eye makeup uses a cream eyeshadow that can range from beige to bronze. Apply it with your finger over the entire eyelid. Simply complete with mascara to lengthen the lashes without giving them volume. Blue eyes are naturally made up with a simple line of black pencil to highlight the iris. You can add a neutral shade of eyeshadow (beige to taupe) over the entire eyelid to subtly enhance the eye. Draw a brown or black pencil line along the lower lash line. A truly black mascara will open up the eyes even more. Makeup your eyes according to their color It is important to choose the right shade of eyeshadow to highlight the color of your irises without dulling them. Easy brown eye makeup Having brown eyes is quite common, but it's an advantage for makeup: almost all colors can be used. Brown eyes allow for a wide variety of choices that will intensify the gaze. The palette to embellish the eyelids is very wide because the vast majority of colors can be associated with brown eyes, whether warm or cool colors. Opt for eyeshadows in warm tones that bring light. Choose khaki, copper, gray, gold, brown… Beige, brown, purple, or even black are also possible. Avoid pastel colors, as well as pink, green, white, and light yellow. For subtle makeup, powdery pink, peach, champagne, and taupe eyeshadows are perfect. For more originality, dare to use violet, burgundy, green, khaki, electric blue, bronze… The lightest eyeshadow should be applied to the inner corner of the eye. A line of eyeliner or kohl pencil along the lash line enhances the result. Always finish with a coat of mascara, which can be plum or black, to open up the eyes. A midnight blue mascara is also suitable. If you have darker skin, intense colors are perfect. For festive makeup, try glittery or pearly eyeshadows. Green eye makeup Use shades opposite to green on the color wheel. This gives red tones with plum, eggplant, purple, but also pink, mauve, coral, orange, not to mention browns, taupes, grays, or coppery shades. A dark eyeshadow is applied to the outer corner of the eyelid, from outside to inside. A touch of highlighter helps to open up the eyes. Blue eye makeup It is necessary to take into account the shade of blue, but it is better to opt for rather cool colors. To enhance blue eyes, opt for orange, copper, or bronze eyeshadows. The eyeshadow can be brown or taupe. Avoid using too much mascara except for evenings and special occasions. What colors for hazel eyes? It is advisable to focus on contrasts. Dare to use all variations of gray, khaki, and brown. You can choose very dark shades for autumn makeup and light tones for summer. For black eyes Black eyes can be made up with many colors. Warm tones like brown, copper, and gold are very good, as are green, blue, pink, purple, or gray. Avoid pastel eyeshadows, which make the eyes look duller. What colors for gray eyes? This is a particularly rare color that can be further enhanced by plum, khaki, or violet eyeshadows. It's best to avoid pastels and tone-on-tone. If it's a dark gray, opt for golden, metallic, and iridescent effects. If the gray leans towards blue, a line of navy blue kohl pencil will be perfect. Makeup your eyes according to their shape To enhance the natural shape of your eyes, there are a few tips. Makeup for almond eyes This is the easiest makeup. Give depth and intensity to your eyes by applying a nude or pinkish eyeshadow on the brow bone and in the corner of the eye. Add a darker color in the outer corner before blending towards the crease. If the eyelids lack depth, play with tones to emphasize them. A line of eyeliner along the lash line is ideal. Avoid gray or taupe, which tend to narrow the eye. Makeup for deep-set eyes The goal is to open and brighten the eyes. Apply a nude to pinkish eyeshadow to the inner corner of the eye and over the entire mobile eyelid. Complete with a darker eyeshadow for the outer corner of the eye. Makeup for round eyes Makeup will stretch the gaze. To do this, you can use a light eyeshadow for the inner corner of the eye and the brow bone, an intermediate color for the mobile eyelid, and a darker one for the outer corner. Makeup for drooping eyes If the eyes point downwards, eyeliner is a valuable ally. Simply draw a nice line to reshape the eyes and lift the gaze. You can also enlarge the eyes by accentuating the mascara brush strokes on the lashes at the outer corner of the eye. This trick helps to enlarge the eyes.
