Shine up those windows!

Our eyes are said to be "the windows to our souls." Whether that's true or not, I love to play with different looks for my eyes and always want to know the top application tips. We all want to know the big celeb tips when it comes to makeup application. How do they always look so good?! And how do I do that!
Now, let me first say that makeup does not fix your skin problems, only skincare will solve your problems. Makeup excentuates your facial features that you have & pumps it all up.

The next couple blogs I post will be about how to sass up your makeup application for a special date, girl's night, or any glam look!

Elegant Eyes

When doing your eyes, a more natural look can be achieved with 1-2 eyeshadows. For more glam effect, use 3+! For specifications on how to apply eyeshadow best for your eye shape, head to the bottom of the blog! I can also help you achieve the look you want!

1- Blinded by the bright...squirt a drop of eye drops in each eye, tissue away excess, reduces bloodshot eyes, yellowing, & discoloration.


2- Brow chica brow brow...use an eyebrow pencil or eyeshadow that is same color as hair color or a 1-2 shades lighter if hair is very dark, follow the matural arch of your brow, finish with brow brush over line to soften (most important part of your makeup!).

3- Get lid ready...brush on concealor 1 shade lighter than foundation all over lid and above crease to eyebrow, apply eye primer on lid and above.

4- Color in the lines...Highlighter shade: apply to the eyelid & along inner corner of lower lashes, Midtone shade: bring the color up above the crease & sweep it across the brow bone, Accent shade: apply to the outer corner of the upper lash line, then up onto the corner of the brow bone.

5- Eyeliner...apply closest to lashline working from inner corner to outer corner, try small feathering strokes, try extending the line beyond the corners of eyes slightly to make eyelashes look longer, black or dark brown is the norm...also play with dark blue, dark purple, or dark green.

6- Mascara time...curl lashes with lash curler (if desired), apply lash primer on top and bottom of Top lash, apply mascara to top & bottom on Top lash, for longer looking lashes double coat on the outside corner of top lashes.
