Hello Tatjana,
I hope to find you well today.
Did you know that most women are afraid of applying eye shadow?
Yep, it's true.
They are not sure what colors to use (see Day 3 of this course),
how to apply eye liner, what eye shadow shape they should use, etc.
There is absolutely a ton of eye makeup info here:
Eye Makeup
There you can learn about eye shadow application, eye liner tricks,
mascara, plus many incredible looks ranging from natural to
dramatic!
I really encourage you to take a look at it. It is one of the most
visited and enjoyed pages on our site!
Okay, I'll give a basic rundown.
First choose your colors, based on the info given in Day 3.
If in doubt, just about everyone can use brown eye colors
successfully, because they will mimic shadows on your face.
Before applying eye makeup, prime the area first by applying a
light layer of your loose powder mineral foundation all around your
eye, and up to your brow bone.
Then try two different looks to experiment. First, try a rounded
look. This is simply when you follow the natural, round contour of
your eye lid.
Then try a winged look. A winged look is a flaring triangle shape
that gets wider toward the outer corner of your eye.
Decide which you prefer. This will depend upon your face shape.
Once you are ready to apply your eye makeup, apply your shadow to
both eyes in the chosen style, either winged or rounded.
You can either apply the shadow to just the crease (fold) area, or
the crease and the lid area. This is just up to you.
Apply a lighter color like cream to your brow bone (right under
your eye brow).
BLEND WELL. This is KEY!! Smudge those edges until it all blends
together!
Next apply eye liner (I prefer a pencil or loose powder with an
angled brush), to the upper and lower lash lines, beginning at the
outer corner of the eye and stopping about 2/3 of the way to the
inner corner. Leave it defined if you like, or smudge it for a
natural look.
Mascara is next. I prefer blinc Kiss Me Mascara.. I've been using it for a couple months now and consider it the best
mascara I've tried! 100% NO smudging or smearing during the day; even in the humid climate I live in.
It comes in many colors like black, dark brown, medium brown, dark purple, dark green and dark blue...
What I like most about it, is that it slips right off your lashes when you wash your face at night!
Little tubes come off on your hand and rinse away... VERY cool.
After that, you're done. You can apply eye brow color if need be, but most
people don't need to.
For night time, apply your makeup heavier or use darker shades or even sparkly/shimmery colors!
Eye makeup is really so easy... don't make it harder than it is!
Just keep in mind:
Blend well, go with browns and creams if you can't decide on
colors, stay with mattes and neutrals for day, and save your darker
or shimmery colors for night.
Remember, I have provided a great deal of specific info on this page
and the links you find there:

Tomorrow is the final day of this mini course!
You won't want to miss it! I discuss the proper way to remove your
makeup , as well as the most important beauty tip ever!
Till then,
