Applying eye shadow

Apply it with a brush: they may be applied dry or, to achieve a denser tint, with the slightly moistened tip of a thin brush.

To achieve the best results, it’s better to use eye shadows in the form of the finest powder with a silky texture. We are lucky to have brown eyes because they work with all colors. Apply shadow with the guidance of the shape of your eyes.

Applying eyeliner


Eyeliner pencil lets you draw a line around the outline of the eye, correcting its form in order to emphasize the look. It also lets you make the look more open and give a line of ascent to eyes with lowered corners.

Apply it, going along the outline of the eye, just above the eyelashes, gradually thickening the line to the upper corner of the eye.

The technique of applying eyeliner pencil should also be guided by eye shape.

Elongated eyes. Draw a dotted line above the upper eyelashes. It’s not worth applying liner under the lower eyelid too much, as it will visually decrease the size of the eye. For evening makeup, you could apply deep eye shadows at the outer corner of the eye, slightly shading them with the help of a square brush.

Roundish eyes.

Apply a dotted line above the upper eyelashes, slightly lifting to the outer corner of the eye. Then, using the same method, draw an outline along the lower eyelid. The eye will seem to be more elongated.

For close-set eyes, always begin the outline two-thirds back from the outer corner of the eye; in contrast to wide-set eyes where you should begin the outline from the inner corner of the eye.

Correcting eyebrows


Perfecting the eyebrows – the main focus of your look – gives the look depth, emphasizing its expression. Thin, dense, light, dark – first of all, they should be well formed and combed, so as to give them a nice look. If necessary, you can slightly improve their form with the help of eyeliner pencil or eye shadow in the same tint as your eyebrows, using a brush.

Applying mascara


Mascara is used to achieve different natural effects: separation, lengthening, curling and expanding the lashes. 
For the ideal application, clean excess mascara from the brush or the eyelashes can stick together. To do this, dry the brush with absorbent paper.

With a deliberate movement, sweep the brush from the roots of the eyelashes to the very tips. Slightly touch the lower eyelashes (always only from the outside). If your eyes have a slightly roundish shape, it’s not worth applying mascara to the lower lashes.

For your eyelashes to curl, apply the mascara along the full length, from the roots to the very tips.

To keep your eyelashes from sticking together, touch them slightly from the roots to the tips with a zigzag movement. Now your glamour effect is guaranteed!
