I've lots of experience with powder - but very little with cream, and would like to get any tips out there on the ebst way to apply it, whether you should put it on before applying face powder to your eyes or after, and anything else that you can think of!I'm looking for any tips on applying cream eyeshadow?
When applying cream eyeshadow..I like to use a sponge tip brush, like the one that comes with eye shadows.But first you need to get a paper towel or tissue and fold it in half and put it under your eye like on your cheek so you don't get the eyeshadow everywhere Sponge tip applicators are good for applying the color to your eyes and it soaks up enough to apply it on. .....then get yourself a professional synthetic eyeshadow brush to evenly smooth it over your lids. Carefully brush off access powder with a loose power that you can go over your face and your done. Flawless!!!!I'm looking for any tips on applying cream eyeshadow?
Thank you so much for that - cream eyeshadow is a new area for me (after using powder eyeshadow for over 20 years!) Report Abuse
Don't get any in your eye!
Well.. first you should just leave your face emty than uyou should put some cream on your hand.. and than apply it on your fsce and rub it nicly

I need help with applying eyeshadow?
Everytime i put on eyeshadow, it gets into my eyes and they turn bright red and looks like i have pink eye, i close my eyes and everything but i dont know why this keeps happening, Ive recently started wearing eyeshadow over my regular pencil eyeliner to soften the color. Have any tips or know why this keeps happening? Much appreciated.I need help with applying eyeshadow?
Sounds like an allergy of some sort! try to get makeup that says ';non hypogenic'; and try having somebody put your makeup on for you just to see if it makes a difference... like with your eyes closed the whole time!!!
I'm really sorry! That would be really depressing for me! however, my skin is retarded and gets allergic to almost EVERYTHING!!!I need help with applying eyeshadow?
You're probably putting on too much eyeshadow, which causes fall-outs. Try tapping the eyeshadow only once or twice then putting it on. If you need more, you can always add on. Add your eyeliner last and use a smudge brush to soften the look. That might help.
It could be that your eyes are sensitive to the product. Try applying the eyeshadow with a damp brush instead of dry, this will help it stick to your eyelid and not fall into your eyes. Also be really careful when you are at the edge of your eyelid, take your time. If you use makeup brushes and not the sponge that comes with the product try a smaller, flat brush instead of a big fluffy one. Use a patting motion instead of brushing or swiping to make sure the eyeshadow stays put. A good brush to use is the MAC 239 or something similar --%26gt; http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_LLkE26Jok7s/R1鈥?/a> I know they sell a similar brush for much less at craft stores, its the Loew Cornell Maxines Mop, I think its 1/4 inch, just look in the paintbrush section you will find it. Yes, craft brushes are safe to use for makeup, they tend to be not quite as soft as makeup brushes but are essentially the same thing.
Don't blow on your brush to get rid of excess, this allows bacteria from your mouth (yes there is bacteria in your mouth, even if you've just used Listerine) to get on your makeup brush and possibly get in your eye. Instead, tap the handle of the brush (lightly) against the edge of a table or against your arm a few times to remove the extra eyeshadow.
blow on the brush before you apply to get rid of excess shadow that will fall into your eyes. also try wearing primer so the shadow sticks and wont flake off throughout the day. benifit makes good primer, sold at sephora and some shoppers drug mart
other than tapping your brush and stuff that has been said you could try using hypo allergenic products so that even if they get in your eye from time to time you won't have any irritations or smth

=)Applying eyeshadow is too hard for me cant i just do it the old way?
to put eyeshadow on, could be hard depending on the your type of eyelid. if it has a large crease or none changes. but in all,you need to use a variety of lights and darks;
on the type by your eyebrow extend white or a light peach over until you reach your eyelid bone. then lower put a color of your choice. for pale skin, pinks and light sunny colors work. for darker skins you could do more copper colors, orange, grey, and black. by your eyelash and after your chosen color you could put a small line of light again. or a dark brown eyeliner to make your eyes POP.

you van make your makeup however you like.
but considering that the mac eyeshadows are like 15$ for one, its probably very expensive for a big pallet of a lot of colors. i saw one at sephora for like 50$. it had about 15 eyeshadows, a couple lip glosses, and a blush or two. it was the sephora brand, btw.

Eyeshadow, How can I get better at applying my eyeshadow?
I feel like a terrible amateur, I keep watching these beautiful youtube videos, but I can not seem to get good at it?
I'd like to do the colorful shadows bymyself and not have to pay for it.
Also which shadows are better Bobbi Brown or Mac's? quality wiseEyeshadow, How can I get better at applying my eyeshadow?
blend blend blend ,, just because u use colorful shadows doesn't mean you cant use different shades of eh same color ,, for instance if Your wearing a yellow shadow, use a white base yellow shadow on the top lid a darker yellow on the outer corners and blend with a gold,,Eyeshadow, How can I get better at applying my eyeshadow?
invest in good quality brush, in my opinion the most important eye brush is a crease brush, the brush looks like a ponytail or something like that... its for blend your eyeshadow color so there is no harsh line.
remember, practice makes perfect, Start use a little, not complicated eye makeup then you can take inspiration from magazines or gurus on youtube, have fun
I think it just takes practice and make sure you have good brushes. And remember we are our worse critic, so it might look good you just arent giving yourself enough credit. But I think its all about following the natural flow of your eye, like the creases.
In terms of makeup and shadows, I LOVE MAC's, I feel the quality is superior to other brands. And if you spend $40.00 at MAC they'll give you a free makeup lesson.

Put heavy shadow on your inner lids and lighter shadow on your outer lids. That will produce the ';victoria secret'; effect.
Use them WET, with MACs Mixing Medium (the water based one)

When applying heavy eyeshadow my eyeshadow always falls down my face when im applying it?
how do i get it to stop doing this?When applying heavy eyeshadow my eyeshadow always falls down my face when im applying it?
just lay down face powder under ur eyes and take it off after u finish ur makeupWhen applying heavy eyeshadow my eyeshadow always falls down my face when im applying it?
Few things you can do:
- try different brush: bigger or made of different stuff could hold eyeshadow better
- use good eye primer - I recommend Benefit Lemon Aid but you can use any brand. Light cream (like Clinique, or even Nivea) or vaseline would do the trick as well
- If you are using brush, shake the extra eyeshadow before applying
- try eye-sponges or other applicators (use a finger if you like, its not as ad as people say!)
- hold a tissue under your eye. extra eyeshadow will fall there.
this happens to me every morning. when i wake up in the morning i wash my face first, then i apply my eyeshadow, then i use some astringent for my pores and the astringent takes the eyeshadow off my face.
Try a different brush, but more than likely you will just have to deal with wiping it off your face when your done. It sucks I know.
Hold a bit of tissue under your eye when applying!
:)
just hold a tissue under your eye when you apply it this will help also a little lose powder that you can brush away
try using an eyeshadow brush and dont put as much on the brush cause u can always add more until u have enough on ur eyes. just dont add as much to ur brush.
Either put a tissue on your face to catch the shadow or use a big blusher brush to dust off!
use a liquid or cream eye shadow because the pwoder stuff will just blow off or drip down your face.
Just use a tissue and hold it underneath your eye so the eyeshadow falls on to it and doesn't get on your face instead!
There not really I way to stop it but you could prevent it from ruining your other make up but putting some tissue under your hand on your cheek
Ok put the eyeshadow on the brush then tap the brush before you apply the eyeshadow and don't sweep it pat it on sweeping it cause the fall out also concealer on the eyelid with powder to set it will make the eye shadows last for longer
That happens to me all the time! After I finish applying the eye shadow, I just take a Q-tip soaked in makeup remover and use it to wipe off the eye shadow that fell down my face.
Put a tiny bit of vaseline on your eyelid about 5 mins before you put your eyeshadow.
Just a really tiny bit.
And blow the brush before you put it on too, so the heavy bits fall off
Hello Jane!
Makeup is fun, except for the little quirks isn't it? Luckily, this is a fairly easy one. Eye shadow applicators tend to build up layers of the shadow on the actual sponge. To avoid this, start using a small brush. Swirl the brush into the shadow and then tap off the excess before putting it on the lid. You will still get the same desired depth of color by repeating this two or three times.
Another tip that might help is applying a little foundation to the lid before adding the shadow. This will help the shadow stay put. Also, you might want to consider doing your eye makeup before your face foundation or powder. This way, if you do have any excess shadow that has fallen, it won't affect your face makeup and will help blend it.
I hope this helps and send me an e-mail if you want to share other tips and tricks! Good luck.
Stay classy!

When applying eyeshadow, where does the darker color go?
my grandma bought me a bareminerals makeup kit, and i've got brown eyeshadow, and a sort of pinkish eyeshadow. where do they go? i'm not very good at applying make-up, so any tips would be appreciated.
if you wanna go all out and explain how to apply everything (i could use the help lol) it's got powder liner, the brown eyeshadow, the pink eyeshadow, blush, all over powder, and a mineral veil.When applying eyeshadow, where does the darker color go?
The pink goes on the lid and the brown in the crease. Use a tiny brush to apply the powder liner as close to your upper lash line as possible. Well you can watch it here. She may be a little hard to understand, but you can see what shes doing. This is how you apply the powders for all over face:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2JaymTLWA鈥?/a>
Typically with eye shadows, you always wanna put the lightest color on the lid, and the darker color in the crease. And then go back to the lightest color and put it right under your eyebrows.
Heres an example: Its just to give you an idea. You dont have to go as dark as she did. You dont even have to use eyeliner or mascara.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hWE8CRjLb鈥?/a>
Matter of fact, Id stop where she put the brown in the crease and leave it just like that (3:18 in the video) Well, Id add mascara.When applying eyeshadow, where does the darker color go?
I wear my eyeshadow with the lighter color on the inside of my eye and the darker color on the outside. If you go to YouTube.com there are a whole bunch of tutorials on how to apply make-up. Its helped me a lot.
Well, the darker color will go on your crease. Start at the corner of your eye and work your way in. Brown looks amazing as a smokey eye!
Darker=crease
Lighter=lid
Light = Over entire lid
Medium = Over lid up to the crease
Dark = Outer corner %26amp; in crease
xx
The darker goes in the far left then go lighter as you proceed to the left end of the eye lids. That's how mine looks and it looks CUTE!!

Where can i buy cosmetic brushes for applying eyeshadow and eyeliner?
oh and also something thats not too expensive. i dont mind 15 dollar ones but i dont want like 30 dollar ones. Thankz!Where can i buy cosmetic brushes for applying eyeshadow and eyeliner?
Sephora (either store or sephora.com) has the widest selection, but a lot of them are expensive. If from Sephora, good mid-price range brushes would be from Benefit or Sephora brand. Ones at drugstores are not usually great quality. You can get decent ones from the Sonia Kashuk Tools collection at Target (the ';Tools'; ones with black handles are better than the regular ones; don't get the regular white ones - they are similar to drugstore kinds) - that would be my recommendation for the mid-price range, if you don't have a Sephora in your area and you want to look at them in person.Where can i buy cosmetic brushes for applying eyeshadow and eyeliner?
The more expensive ones are better quality for applying makeup. (I like Bobbi Brown and Trish McEvoy) but they can set you back up to $80 for one brush. MAC brushes are good as well for middle price range. BUt if you are looking for affordable brushes, try sephora. And even cheaper than sephora is ELF. Almost everything on their website is $1
Ulta is a good place to buy them, and also at Benefit cosmetics online, because I bought some of mine there and they are good and affordable too.
http://www.benefitcosmetics.com/gp/node/鈥?/a>
They usually sell them at the drug store. You can also try a make up place like Ulta. Better yet - visit Sephora, they have them for free so you can test things....just put some in your pockets too.
I like the CVS brand Essence of Beauty. They have a pretty good selection, the quality is good and they are affordable.
the mall or a drug store loreal brand
even if its little expensive mac brushes are the best
Target carries a brand- Sonia Kashnuk (sp?) These are great brushes, similar to what you can get at MAC for twice as much.
Ummm At Walmart in the Health and Beauty Isle...
Cheap, nice quality, fast shipping. (:
There is this website E.L.F. that sells makeup and brushes for $1 each. Everything is a dollar and this stuff is really good. The shipping is only $5. I've bought all sorts of stuff from there. Check it out.
um....mac. i tink^^

When applying fake eyelashes do you apply the eyeshadow after or before you apply them?
Also after you apply them do you put mascra on or just not put mascra on??When applying fake eyelashes do you apply the eyeshadow after or before you apply them?
you put the eye shadow BEFORE putting on the fake eyelashes and if they are fake and curly NO MASCARA but it like regular a littl mascara wont hurtWhen applying fake eyelashes do you apply the eyeshadow after or before you apply them?
I've tried putting eye shadow on both ways, and I prefer before. I always ended up with dirty eyelashes from the dust. One thing though, the glue doesn't stick as well to the make-up. If you're careful with the eye shadow after might work better.
eye shadow should be applied after and mascara is not needed but some chose to put some on but I think they look better without mascara.
I apply eyeshadow before.
I put mascara on my real lashes before too.

yes, that is true you do not need a crease shadow. if you're eyes are already defined, no need to add it.
and yes to your question -- that is a good way to apply eyeshadow.
plus....here's a tip.
apply the lighter eyeshadow first on the brow bone, and work your way down. then choose the darker shade of color onto the eye lid.
^ if you already knew that, that's okay. just trying to give you friendly advice. haha.
:D %26lt;3
best of luck,
xIs this a good way of applying eyeshadow?
that sounds very nice. if you don't want to wear a crease eyeshadow, you dont have to. i think it looks very pretty when people wear like a trio of eyeshadows. a medium color all over the lid, a darker in the crease, and a light color as a highlight. more colors give more of a complexion and is nicer with a combination of colors.
yes, most people only use the crease shadow when they are in need of definition, but if you feel that your eyes are defined enough then that's ok!! :)Fashion Necklace

Is it true that applying some foundation on your lids before you apply eyeshadow makes the color last longer?
some people say foundation, concealer etc
if you apply a bit on your eyelids
your eyeshadow color lasts longer
is this true?
has anybody ever tried this?Is it true that applying some foundation on your lids before you apply eyeshadow makes the color last longer?
Yes, that is true.Is it true that applying some foundation on your lids before you apply eyeshadow makes the color last longer?
A dab of liquid foundation on your lids will definitely make your shadow last longer. Foundation adheres to your skin better than eyeshadow because it is not as pigment rich. For best results, set the foundation on your lids with a bit of pressed powder. This will make blending much easier.
If you want to splurge, Urban Decay makes an award winning primer called ';Primer Potion'; which makes your shadow crease resistant. Another fun idea is to try colored primers. MAC makes primer in many shades to try. Have fun and experiment!!
love.
i haven't heard of that. but i have heard if you take a tiny drop of foundation...like really tiny.... %26amp;%26amp; put it on your lips it makes them softer, %26amp;%26amp; the color a little paler. but. don't do it.
i did it %26amp;%26amp; yeah. i was cute. but it dries yr lips out for like a day after. %26amp;%26amp; you have to use tons of chapstick.
Yes it works. It's like an eyeshadow base, it will make it last longer %26amp;%26amp; go on smoother.
I always do my eye make-up like that:) %26amp;%26amp; it stays on all day. From 6 in the morning till 5 in the afternoon
I do this, and it seems to work well. =)
I just have light foundation on a brush, and I sweep it across my lids.
yea i've tried it. it works beacuse it acts as a base/primer for the makeup.

Girls out there which colour do I first apply the lightest shade or what when applying eyeshadow?
apply the base color to your lid, then apply a darker color in the crease. blend the two together. apply a highlight color to your browbone and blend with the crease color.Girls out there which colour do I first apply the lightest shade or what when applying eyeshadow?
light shade first, then darkerGirls out there which colour do I first apply the lightest shade or what when applying eyeshadow?
first you apply a shade that is about 2 shades lighter than your natural skin tone all over the eyelid, then you but a shade that is like a light brown( try eye enhancers in mink) either in the crease or from the lashline to the crease. good luck!
you should apply a neutral color that matches your skin tone first on your lid. then in the crease and corners a darker color and on top near your eyebrow apply the lightest color.

Girls do I apply mascara after applying eyeshadow or before applying eyeshadow?
I always apply mascara last.
For me, it is:
eyeshadow
eyeliner, then
mascara
(not that i always use them makeup all at one time but yeah lol)
if u apply mascara, then eyeshadow, you mite find that eyeshadow will stick on your eyelashesGirls do I apply mascara after applying eyeshadow or before applying eyeshadow?
I put on my shadow,then mascara,then touch up both just to make sure it all looks good before leaving the house.Girls do I apply mascara after applying eyeshadow or before applying eyeshadow?
i would say after eyeshadow
after because you'll end up with powdery lashes
you should put the mascara on after
For me i apply the eyeshadow first then the mascara so that my eyelashes will be in good shape as i like it (without the shadow on top of it).
Mascara AFTER eyeshadow! Otherwise you will have loads of eyeshadow dust on your lashes, which will make them look dull.
after because the eyeshadow normally gets on ur eyelashes n makes them look funny.
afterwards so you dont get the eyeshadow on your eyelashes when youve already applied mascara
Always *after* applying shadow. :)
If you do it the other way around, it will probably be difficult for you to apply the shadow smoothly.
Either way. I normally do it after eyeshadow.

What are some make up tips when applying eyeshadow?
When you are applying eyeshadown, make sure you are using a brush, a soft brush, not like the ones that comes w/ the eyeshadow packes (the white ones). Make sure you are using at least two colors, one dark and one light. Apply the light one first, on your whole entire eyelid, and the darkest one last, and only apply to the part that is nearest to your eye.What are some make up tips when applying eyeshadow?
Definitely blend!! Here are some colors that go well together:
%26gt;Brown %26amp; light brown
%26gt;Pink %26amp; purple
%26gt;Yellow %26amp; gold
%26gt;Black %26amp; dark brown
%26gt;Silver %26amp; white
%26gt;Red %26amp; pink
But remeber these are just suggestions!What are some make up tips when applying eyeshadow?
i like using a small brush to aply light colors or pastel colors. if they are darker colors, i like using a sponge. and then if there is any type of color coordinating to be done, go by layers. :)
I always get good make up tips here.

light shade goes on lid and darker color in crease and lightest on eyebrow area
Virtual Makeover is great. You can play with colors and find a look you will love. Then it shows you how to apply your new look. Just click the link below.
Use 3 different colors. Use the lightest as your base. Then use the darkest for the crese of your eye lid, then you can use the remaining shade for just the top of your lids. Use strokes from the outside to the inside. And if you need to blend the colors get a shimmer like the one from cover girl it's a neutral color with a fat brush that's good for blending.
Depending on the effect you are going for...
pay attention to the natural shadows of your face, and aim to exaggerate them. For example, your brow bone is a good area to highlight, and the crease and outer sides of your lids are good to shadow.
For something more dramatic I would recommend a medium shade to start on the entire bottom lid, and a light shade around the brow bone to highlight. Then a third darker shade to use on the outer half of the lid towards the hairline and ear.
For something a bit more natural, subtle, day time, you could use the above technique but with more neutral colors, or simply skip the third shade.
Always be sure to blend blend blend. :]

What is the purpose of eye primer before applying eyeshadow?
Eye Primer go on to make the eye shadow last longer and hold color better. At the end of your day you will look better if u put Eye Primer on before your eyeshadow. I makes it less likely that the shadow will fade. It also brightens some eyeshadow colors which will help your eyes pop.

i use it to even out the skin tone on my eyelids. it also helps the eyeshadow ';stick'; more to the skin so it stays on longer. also, i find if you put a little on the inside corners of your eye it will make your eyes look ';brighter.';What is the purpose of eye primer before applying eyeshadow?
it's purpose is to keep the eye shadow on all day without it fading.
it also makes the color pop a lot more.
it's a really good investment for the avid eye make up wearer!
Primer acts as a beneficial base to your eyeshadow.
Applying a primer before eyeshadow helps keep the shadow vibrant and crease free all day.
Without primer shadow can fade and crease.

To all girls out there when applying eyeshadow I start with the lightest colour or what when applying 3 colour
for 3 colours you do the lightest colour all over your lid, the darkest colour swept into your crease, and the medium colour swept under your eyes, if that what you were asking ..To all girls out there when applying eyeshadow I start with the lightest colour or what when applying 3 colour
easiest way let's say your working with a neutral palette
you'd take the midtone color ( ie khaki) and put it over your enture lid up until your browbone.
2. take the darkest color ( ie dark chocolate brown) and rub it in your crease in small circular motions.
3. take the lightest color (yellowy beige/white) and run it directly onto your brow bone
make sure to blend out any harsh lines esp. where one color starts and the other ends.To all girls out there when applying eyeshadow I start with the lightest colour or what when applying 3 colour
you start with the darkest color in the creases of your eye then work your way up
Apply the darkest shade on your eyelid close to your eyelashes. Then, use the medium shade after that, and the lightest shade closer to your brow (don't go all the way up, though.) Make a ';V'; with the darkest shade from your lashes to your crease.
Now, put a little of the dark below your bottom lashes. you're all set!

When applying eyeshadow, what area of my eye should I apply the dark and which the light?
I got a revlon eyeshadow palette with a few neutral colors in it, and would love to to a subtle brown/ smokey thing with my eyeshadow. The only problem is im a little stuck as to where i apply it, thank you :)When applying eyeshadow, what area of my eye should I apply the dark and which the light?
Natural: Apply the light colour all over from lash to brow then apply the medium from lash line to crease and then apply the dark colour along the lash lines
Smokey: Apply the light colour all over from lash to brow then apply the medium from lash line to crease and then apply the dark colour into the crease and socket line and blend wellWhen applying eyeshadow, what area of my eye should I apply the dark and which the light?
Start with the lightest shade on the inside corner of the eye, with the middle section being a bit darker, and the edge being quite brown =] then put the brown on the edge so it comes up around the crease so its above the middle section.
I dont know if that will make sence.. =/
but i hope it helps anyways :)
apply the light on the brow bone( right under ur eyebrow) and in the corner of ur eyelid( the part of ur eyelid closest to ur nose) apply the darker shade on ur eyelid along the outer edge and closer to ur eyelashes. do not apply the darker colors on the brow bone.

If you have an Ulta near where you live, I suggest going there.
They sell various brushes, ranging from $4-$30 a piece, it just depends on which ones you buy.
In my opinion, I thought you should buy a set of Eco Tools. They come in their own little pouch, they're eco friendly (hence the name) and they're really soft and gentle. I got mine for $13, and I got 6 or 7 brushes (variety.)
As far as I know, you can pick up Eco Tools at Ulta, and at Walgreens. Those are the only places I've seen them. But I can imagine you can get them in other stores too, just keep an eye out for them.

What do you wear under your eyebrows when applying eyeshadow?
ok, so here's what's up. when i put on eyeshadow i usually put it on my eyelid and sometimes uderneath my eye, but i've been noticing latley that girls put on something underneath there eyebrows that gives the eye a sexy illusion. do you guys know what that is?What do you wear under your eyebrows when applying eyeshadow?
A highlight color but before you wear that I think you know that you have to wear primer because it makes the color stay on longer and less oily :)What do you wear under your eyebrows when applying eyeshadow?
It's called a highlight.
And it's of course eyeshadow also but a lighter color than the main color you are using on your lid.
It gives the illusion of making your eyeshadow pop more and look more intense. :)
Under your eyebrows you apply a lighter shadow. then toward the bottom of the eyelid you apply a darker shade. then blend
highlighter. You can use a little bit of shimmery/sparkly light colored eye-shadow.
its called a highlight. its usually a light/neutral color. try vanilla pigment by mac
usually just shimmer

So pictures would be best for your answers. OR a youtube link with a good how to video. ThanksApplying Eyeshadow when you have a large space between your eyebrow and lashline?
There is a youtube guru who has this type of eye shape. I am not subscribed to her and can't remember her link. But this is what she did.
She normally uses 5 colours: 1 lid, 1 crease, 1 outer v and 1 highlight. Then she uses a 5th colour in between her crease and highlight colour. Something that's matte and similar to her skin tone. She blends out the whole colour. I remember this cause I thought it's a very useful tip. It is a shame that I don't remember her name though.Applying Eyeshadow when you have a large space between your eyebrow and lashline?
My eyes are the same way, i have really large eyes. I usually use a really light color all over the eye lid, then use a light gray on the bottom part of the eye lid, and in the crease a darker color like black. I like my make up very dark, but you can change the color. I just wouldn't use a very bright or dark color all over, it makes it look messy.
Here is a link to Nikkie Tutorials on youtube. She has the same shape of eye you describe and she does amazing looks. I think the secret is to go past the crease with the eye shadow. HTH

Is it okay to put vaseline on your lids after applying eyeshadow?
I read it in a magazine and when I tried it, I got pretty good results. But I'm just wondering if this will harm my eyes.Is it okay to put vaseline on your lids after applying eyeshadow?
no it wont harm your eyes just dont put it all over your face only use it to remove eye makeup and u know using vasaline is safe because it was in a magazine most of their skin care tips are written by dermatoligist oh and at the back of the container it says that it removes eye makeup so there you go
it's safe! dont belive me read the back of your vasaline container
another vasaline tip is that it provides visible relief of dry skin on your lips ... i use the tip all the time i have gorgeos lipsIs it okay to put vaseline on your lids after applying eyeshadow?
its fine, vaseline is perfect for anything.
No, as long as it doesn't get INSIDE your eye.
No, it is not good because it makes your eye shadow crease and could cause allergy to your eyes.
It won't harm your eyes, but try putting it on BEFORE as a base. Vaseline is meant for external use, so just as long as you're not buttering your eyes up with it, it's perfectly fine...I suppose.
im pretty sure it doesnt...
but if you want to use it to keep your eyeshadow on i suggest you buy a base/eye shadow primer...
i got one from sephora %26amp;+ it works really good :)
No, it won't harm eyes. You should put it on before eyeshadow though, it acts as a primer so eyeshadow stays on longer and doesn't crease.
i dont see y nawt :] evn if u do get it in ur eye, it duznt mttr 2 much. just gently rinse it out. it wont hurt or burn :]

Put some sort of cream foundation or base at the corner of your eyes and use a small eyeshadow brush. Not an eyeshadow sponge.What are some other ways of applying eyeshadow other than my lids?
take an angle brush (its slanted like this \) and put some underneath your bottom lashline. its super cuttee!

I have never applied eyeshadow in my life, and wanted to try some on. Does anyone know of any step by step images that will help me. Also any easy to follow steps.
Thanks soo much.Applying eyeshadow?

Really depends on how many colours you want and the shape of your eyes!!!
Always apply in triangles and tending not to go right up to your eyebrow.

Then apply a darker color to your crease.
Then apply a whitish color to your brow bone.

It's easy. First I'd recommend starting with one light natural looking shade. Covergirl sells individual shades for about $3.00 at Walmart and they're great. Then you just use the little ';wand'; and apply it over your entire lid.
If you want to move up from that- buy several shades or a compact with more than one shade.
Take the lighter shade and apply it across your brow bone- yes, this is your eyebrow bone. :) Then cover your eyelid with the darker shade. Use your fingertip or a cosmetic brush to lightly blend the two colors so there is no distinctive line. This makes the makeup look much prettier.
That's all there is to it. The great thing about makeup is that it is forgiving. Practice, practice practice- it washes off and you can put more on.

i think this is really useful:
http://www.wildaboutmakeup.com/apply-eye-shadow.html
ok start by getting a really light color like pink chiffon from covergirl and put it on eyelid all the way up to under neath eyebrow then find a light brown color and put it just on the crease of eyelid after you have done that brush over all of it with a makeup brush to get all excess eyeshadow off but do not brush too much or all will come off then you just put mascara on and your ready to go.
I never use to use eyeshadow but from the first time i used it i liked it and i wear it every day now. Your the best person to apply your eyeshadow because you know exactly how you want it. The bestway to apply is start in the corner and work your way out, if you think that youve made a mess use a cotton bud to neaten it up.
I don't have images but if you really want help you should go to a Good friend and ask them to apply it too themselves then you try if you do it wrong just wash it off with makeup remover and start again. Its not that hard once you have done it Once or twice.
apply eyeshadow with a small pad or brush which comes with eyeshadow. at first choose colour keep colour near the eye blend into second colour in the socket of your eye or the same colour here finishing with a light colour near to your eyebrow If using a pencil for outline the eye top and bottom at top near the eyelashes and at bottom under the eye lashes this frames the eye and is lovely in blue lilac or green i use this one they apply a brush at the sockets of your eye with lighter shade and then mascara .....buntyseaforde
well if your light skinned put it on very lightly and dont make it go up to your eyebrows or past your eyelid just use light colours if your dark pinks and browns or goldish looking colours will look good on you.
go to stores like John Lewis n they will tell u how to do it really nice so it will look professional.

Eyeshadow application?
I will be wearing a purple/black/silver shirt tomorrow. i purchased some purple and grey/silverish eyeshaow in hopes of trying to match it up. Can someone tell me which do I apply first the darker color at the base and the lighter on the upper part of the eyelid, vice versa??? i'm a little lost. thanks!!!Eyeshadow application?
First of all I don't mean to discourage U but U never match ur eyeshadow with ur outfit. Since You already bought the colors use the lighter one first. U can use the gray on the crease then like how u would use a line, line ur upper and lower with the purple and then use mascara. it's cheak and trendy. sorry if I'm harshEyeshadow application?
It's a good idea to apply the lighter shade to the whole eyelid (upper and lower). Then apply the darker shade to the lower lid. Then use a eyeshadow brush an blend the edge of the darker shade into the lighter shade. Play around a little with the eyeshadow's before you actually wear them. Try different techniques with the darker shade, eg: just a line with the applicator on the lower lid just above the lashes, or on the whole of the lower lid. You can extend the darker colour out at the corners as well. But i definitely would suggest trying different applications to find out what looks best.
yes, you wold do a thin layer of the black at the bottome of your eyelid. your lid and the courners of your eyes would be the purple and around the brow and over everything else blend in the silver.
lighter color below eyebrow, darker color closer to eyelashes. hope this makes sense and is of some help.
Follow the advice from the Mary Kay Senior Consultant. (I'm one, too).
- put the silver all over your lid right up to your brow and out towards the outer edge of the eye
- then take the purple and put it on the lid and along the crease of your eye so that you can see it when your eyes are open just alittle bit and make sure you blend
- then put the black only on the outer corner of the lid, and blend again.
There are several options depending on your face shape and eye shape. Check out
http://www.marykay.com/whatsnew/applicat鈥?/a>
This will guide you based on your eye shape and set. Just copy and paste it in yout address box.
lol, those are our school colors! =]
this is what you're supposed to do
-put a lighter smoother color on the lid first and then add more color to it with darker eyeshadow of the same color
-then get a med. color and put it on your lid crease
-then get the lightest color and put it from the crease to eyerows
-and then get a draker color and put it on the corners or your eyes
hope that helped! =]

Eyeshadow application??
I have a lot of bright and neon shadows, but I don't really know how to apply it so I look hot but not trashy.
Just one line, whole eye...? What?
Any pics or tips would be helpful.Eyeshadow application??
Apply it under the brow bone. Here's a site to help you. =)
http://www.covergirl.com/tips/showTip.js鈥?/a>
Also, i wouldnt apply the colors too heaviley because it will look trashy no matter what you do with it. Keep it nice and light. =)Eyeshadow application??
What I do is put most of the colour on the lid not going over the crease and then in a circular motion I guess fan it out towards your eyebrow at the point where your bottom and top eye meet. Make sure you go not too close to the eyebrow but far enough out that you can see it. Also do this part lighter. I would upload a picture of my eye but I don't know where my camera cord is...sorry.
Hope that helps kind of!

Eyeshadow Application?
So, this is kind of embarassing. I'm almost 24 and still clueless about the whole ';contour'; concept when it comes to eye makeup.
I have manicured eyebrows
I have the angled brush.
I have the blendhing brush.
And I've watched the Sephora application videos over and over but it still comes not as awesome.
Am I expecting too much success being a novice? Or is there really some magic trick?Eyeshadow Application?
Have you tried searching eye makeup tutorials on YouTube? They are brilliant!
Many will show you how to contour your eyeshape - for example, show you the crease, the outer v, the tearduct etc.
EnKore, Panacea81 and pursebuzz are a few i can think of from the top of my head - just have a wee search ';Eye makeup tutorials'; and see what it comes up with! :D
Temptalia also makes a fantastic bunch of tutorials for HOW TO for eye makeup :)
http://www.temptalia.com/tutorial-refere鈥?/a>Eyeshadow Application?
i would suggest the sephora rounded crease brush #13. it doesn't have to be this exact brush, but if you are looking for a crease brush, this is what it should look like (doesn't matter too much what brand it is as long as the brush hairs feel similar and are shaped the same way).
i'm assuming when you say contouring, that you mean adding depth to the crease of the eye. if you have eye shadow only on the very tip of this brush, then apply it to the crease with an open eye, you should be fine. that's what the brush is designed for. you see how the tip is tapered and kind of rounded? it's so when you put shadow in the crease, it doesn't come on as a harsh line, but a blended one. of course, asking a sales person for help while you're in sephora never hurts, too.
It's just a case of practice, i was a late learner too. Just experiment when you've got a free evening (take photos to compare results if that helps) to find out what works for you.
If you've got a MAC or other make-up shop (or concession in a department store) go down there and book an appointment; the makeup artists are really friendly and will show you how to use the brushes and apply the products.
Just have fun and don't be afraid of making mistakes - you can always take it off and start again.

What brand of eyeshadow is the best application for the base coat on your brow bone?
I like to use cream/light beige (cover girl/ lauder) for my entire lid but when I put the other colors on, you can't really see the cream color anymore. I need something that's more noticable. Brand and name of color would be helpful.What brand of eyeshadow is the best application for the base coat on your brow bone?
I like prescriptive or Mac. Mac is a professional model line that stays and stays. Silver, gold for the holidays is great. You can use a base white and put a hint of whatever color you are wearing to make your eyes interesting. You can get Mac at macys or sephora stores.What brand of eyeshadow is the best application for the base coat on your brow bone?
MAC is great for eyeshadows. Also try merle norman cosmetics. they have a colour called oyster its like a white with a really nice shimmer in it. It looks great on brow bones and brightens up your eyes. Hope this helps!

Easy Application for Eyeshadow?
What's a quick and easy way to create a smokey eye in 5 minutes or less than?Easy Application for Eyeshadow?
These easy instructions will have your shadow done and perfect in 3 minutes or less! lol.
Here's what you need:
1. a small tip eyeshadow brush
2. a large tip eyeshadow brush
3. an angled eyeshadow brush (optional)
4. a dark, highly pigmented eyeshadow in blue, brown, purple, green, gray or burgundy (depending on your outfit).
INSTRUCTIONS:
1. Use the small tip eyeshadow brush and apply the color on your lower lid up to the crease.
2. Then, take the large tip eyeshadow brush and blend the color upward so that there is a smooth transition between the crease and your upper eye. (If you prefer, you may also add a darker color in the crease (using an angled shadow brush to add more depth)
3. Next, swipe only the tip of your small tip brush into your eyeshadow and apply color to your lower lash line. Continue adding color until desired ';darkness'; is achieved.
That's it! You don't even need a liner! It's that easy! I prefer using Nars eyeshadows because they are super easy to blend! Plus they have AMAZING colors even for darker skin tones and they're fun to mix and match. They also offer dual shadows (two complimentary colors in the same set) that make coordinating colors fast and easy! You'll love the look! Happy ';shadowing';! LOLEasy Application for Eyeshadow?

Quick Tips to Sexy, Smokey Eyes
1. When doing a smokey eye, I like to start with the eye makeup first before applying foundation. It's easier to clean up any fallen shadow without messing up your entire makeup. This also avoids the dark raccoon look under the eye.
2. First start with a sheer nude color all over the eye. Go from lid to brow.
3. Next, apply a dark brown or plum eyeshadow from your lid to your crease. Since the look is smudged and smokey, I like to use creme shadows and apply them with either my fingers or a synthetic makeup brush.
4. Next, line the entire eye with a dark brown or plum eyeliner. For this look, pencil works the best. If you want a more glamorous eye, line the inner rim of your eye as well.
5. Follow with two-three coats of black mascara. I always recommend curling the lashes first to really open up the eye.
6. Make sure the brows are groomed and your ready to go!
Here are some of favorite tricks if you do tend to get raccoon eyes:
1. Apply eyeshadow before any other makeup.
2. Place a kleenex folded in half below the eye to catch any shadow that falls.
3. Apply white translucent powder below the eye and dust off after applying eye makeup. It will catch any fallen shadow.
4. Use a concealer brush and ';clean up'; the eye area with a dab of foundation. Set with a finely milled loose powder like Laura Mercier.

GOOD LUCK!!!!
These easy instructions will have your shadow done and perfect in 3 minutes or less! lol.
Here's what you need:
1. a small tip eyeshadow brush
2. a large tip eyeshadow brush
3. an angled eyeshadow brush (optional)
4. a dark, highly pigmented eyeshadow in blue, brown, purple, green, gray or burgundy (depending on your outfit).
INSTRUCTIONS:
1. Use the small tip eyeshadow brush and apply the color on your lower lid up to the crease.
2. Then, take the large tip eyeshadow brush and blend the color upward so that there is a smooth transition between the crease and your upper eye. (If you prefer, you may also add a darker color in the crease (using an angled shadow brush to add more depth)
3. Next, swipe only the tip of your small tip brush into your eyeshadow and apply color to your lower lash line. Continue adding color until desired ';darkness'; is achieved.
That's it! You don't even need a liner! It's that easy! I prefer using Nars eyeshadows because they are super easy to blend! Plus they have AMAZING colors even for darker skin tones and they're fun to mix and match. They also offer dual shadows (two complimentary colors in the same set) that make coordinating colors fast and easy! You'll love the look! Happy ';shadowing';! LOLEasy Application for Eyeshadow?

Quick Tips to Sexy, Smokey Eyes
1. When doing a smokey eye, I like to start with the eye makeup first before applying foundation. It's easier to clean up any fallen shadow without messing up your entire makeup. This also avoids the dark raccoon look under the eye.
2. First start with a sheer nude color all over the eye. Go from lid to brow.
3. Next, apply a dark brown or plum eyeshadow from your lid to your crease. Since the look is smudged and smokey, I like to use creme shadows and apply them with either my fingers or a synthetic makeup brush.
4. Next, line the entire eye with a dark brown or plum eyeliner. For this look, pencil works the best. If you want a more glamorous eye, line the inner rim of your eye as well.
5. Follow with two-three coats of black mascara. I always recommend curling the lashes first to really open up the eye.
6. Make sure the brows are groomed and your ready to go!

How do i prevent dark eyeshadow from falling onto my cheeks during application?
get a small piece of tape, and some paper towel or toilet paper, and tape it to your cheeks, just under your eye.
Is that what you were looking for??How do i prevent dark eyeshadow from falling onto my cheeks during application?
The only thing you can do to prevent it is to tap your brush prior to applying the shadow. You will find that the excess still falls onto the cheekbones. The best thing to do is to put loose translucent powder on your cheekbones so that after you apply your shadow you can use a large bluff brush to brush away the loose powder and any excess shadow that has fallen. Many makeup artists use this technique. I find it easier to simply put a tissue under the eye while applying shadow to catch the excess.How do i prevent dark eyeshadow from falling onto my cheeks during application?
use a primer like urban decay primer potion to make your eyeshadow stay where you want it and not fall down as much.
a primer will also help the color stay for longer.
also pat a lot of lose powder foundation under your eye and on your cheeks before you apply your eyeshadow. then once you've finished your eyes just use a foundation brush and wipe away all the excess foundation you applied. any fallout from your eye make-up will be wiped off with the excess foundation.
dust translucent powder onto your cheeks prior to applying the dark eyeshadow...and then it will come off more easily when you'r done with your eyeshadow...I learned this from Allure magazine, and I have tried it, and it works! :)
i take a facial tissue and press it right under my eye during application to catch the specks that fall. you could also tap your brush to remove the excess before applying.
You can put loose powder under your eyes which picks up any of the loose shadow and then the excess powder can be wiped off... a little trick I learnt which worked really well for me!!
just put some toilet paper under your eye and hold it there while putting on eyeshadow. That's what I do
maybe primer?
idk I thought it was supposed to make your makeup stick?
haha good luck:)Fashion Necklace

Help with eyeshadow application?
hey guys...
ermm basically i was looking on youtube and i was watching some of the eyeshadow tutorials. i was looking at anything to fancy just simple. all the products are REALLY expensive that they use but i invested in some really good eye shadow stuff and i have loads of brushes.
i tried it out and i just cant seem to do it....it just all goes horrid.
its not to do with the stuff im using coz its very good.
i have a steady hand and i can paint nails amazingly. i just cant do my own eyes:(
any ideas as to what i could do??
thanks byexxxHelp with eyeshadow application?
Try small and build it up.. Do only liner or only liner and mascara and a nautral color light tan or something, then the next week have a little darker tan and a little darker, then as the time goes by it would get a lot easier. then you will be a pro. :) you can do funky stuff. blendng orange to red, or like, Light green in the center and dark green on the oposite side... its cool, just build up to it. nobody is born a pro.Help with eyeshadow application?
Check out coastalscents.com - they have AWESOME makeup at a really decent price. As far as applcation and technique, go to the mall or a department store and have them do a ';makeover'; on youl Stores like Sephora and Ulta are really great for this, and they are totally free!
Try doing it on others first untill you master it. You will get it soon.
its really simple...
for me- i just close my eyes and brush ( with a small brush) close to the lash line... then i look to see it, and move up a little farther... since your not going for big and flashy i'd just add color to the crease of your lids.. but if you have a really light color you can add it a little farther up so you can see it better- very flatering *light purple(very) dense green and sky blue.
i have blue eyes, so green ( one thats still light but not thin) gets me lots of comments- hope ths helps some, the more you practice it gets easier.... Eyeliner's wat gets me. lol

Try to rest your elbow on a table. If you have a sort of armoire/makeup counter, this is perfect. Then, hold the brush (remember to put the eyeshadow on it!! :D) and do horizontal lines. Remember to re-dip every time you finish a line. Try not to press too hard or too lightly, make sure you keep it the same way.
Hope I helped!
Some people have nack for certain things! You just need to get your friend who is good at It to do It for you or go to a department store that has a make-up section where they can give you tips and show you the basics!

Eyeshadow Application Question!!?
I have a eyeshadow brush and I have a eyeshadow brush with a sponge tip and I was wondering which one is better to use between the two?? and whats the difference when it comes to applying eyeshadow with the sponge tip and the brush?!?Eyeshadow Application Question!!?
Brush - lighter, softer look
Sponge - Intense, darker lookEyeshadow Application Question!!?
Definitely use the eyeshadow brush , it's easier to apply and it comes out with a more fresh/clean look , though with a eyeshadow sponge your makeup looks heavier and contrived
It goes on better with the brush. The applicator pulls at the skin, doesn't go on even %26amp; the applicator wastes more eyeshadow where it gets packed in the applicator.
Brush--powder eyeshadows
Sponge--cream eyeshadows
The brush will make the eyeshadow appear more natural and less thick. The sponge is for the ';bold'; look.
use the sponge 4 a more precise application and to smudge. use the brush to blend and apply all over colour
a sponge you can dab it and you can swereve it. you can do different patterns with it. For a just out and about look use that.
A regular brush just helps apply it. use that for a smooth going to dinner look. then layer the color with the sponge.
i would go with sponge tip because it gives more of a natural look....and it fits the eye...
To me,the eye shadow brush is better in terms of if you want to blend colors together, whereas the eye shadow brush with the sponge tip is if you are just applying just one color on your whole eye lid. I prefer using the eye shadow brush or my fingers because I tend to blend my colors, and I read somewhere that the eye shadow brush with the sponge tip is not good to use.
Brush= Natural flawless coverage, better for blending
Sponge= Clumpy, noticable, generally not good for applying eyeshadows, may occasionally be used for wet eyeshadows
they have different looks to them i think i would use the regular 1 myself not sponge
brush is better and the difference is that with the sponge it could appear more darker an area and with the brush you can measure the level of how much color you want an area.
the rush would probably be lighter and more 'sweep' looking. the sponge would probably be more precise. it all depends on the look youre going for

How do you apply a light application of eyeshadow?
Take a big brush, rather one of those cheap applicators they come with, and dip it in the eyeshadow. Tap off most of it, and brush it on lightly.How do you apply a light application of eyeshadow?
Hi,
► With an eye shadow brush or sponge applicator, sweep a light color from your brow to your lashes.
And if you want use a small, flat angled brush you can line your eye with a dark shaded color, add drama to your eyes by using a wet brush for this step.
Høρε I ђεlρεḋ,,How do you apply a light application of eyeshadow?
put it on very lightly with your finger.
-サクラ
with your eyeshadow brush lightly put it in the eyeshadow and then put one layer over your eyelid.In other words only put one coat of eyeshadow on. This way it's light and you won't end up looking like a clown lol
use a fatter brush rather than a thinner one, and use a smaller amount of eyeshadow.
Instead of using a denser brush, use a fluffier blending brush. That way, it'll be more like a light wash.
Don't press very hard and use a fluffy brush

Uncommon Eye Shape & Eyeshadow Application?
What is my eye shape? I know its not a ';common'; one like almond, asian, hooded or round because Ive seen pictures of celebrities that have those kind %26amp; they dont match mine.
My crease is very defined, so much so that the line is visible even when my eye is closed. The immobile part of my lid (above the crease) is fleshy, puffy %26amp; ';fat';. The area under my brow is highly visible but I think its because of the way I arch my brows %26amp; not because of a protruding bone. Any help?

POLL: Eyeshadow application...?
1. Do you like applying make up with a brush or a sponge applicator?
2. Do you prefer loose powder (mineral) make-up or hard powder make-up in palettes?POLL: Eyeshadow application...?
Brush definitely, but you should buy a natural hair brush, not those cheapo ones that come with the eyeshadow palate. I prefer the pressed powder (hard) makeup to loose powder, cause the loose powder is really messy.POLL: Eyeshadow application...?
I like brush, and I prefer Hard Powder Make-up in palettes, because you can control the amount of shadow, you want. Don't get me wrong, I do like loose powder, but when you think you have a little bit, it ends up being a lot, and you might end up looking like a clown.
Brush for sure and loose powder.
This combination tends to crease less :D !
1. depends- foundation i apply with a sponge applicator, and translucent powder, eye shadow, and blush i apply with a brush
2. loose powder

1. I love to apply makeup with the brush, its so much better than the sponges..
2. I prefer loose powders( mineral) it leaves a great finish, and its not bad for the skin.

I like brush, and I prefer Hard Powder Make-up in palettes, because you can control the amount of shadow, you want. Don't get me wrong, I do like loose powder, but when you think you have a little bit, it ends up being a lot, and you might end up looking like a clown.
Brush for sure and loose powder.
This combination tends to crease less :D !
1. depends- foundation i apply with a sponge applicator, and translucent powder, eye shadow, and blush i apply with a brush
2. loose powder
:)
1. I love to apply makeup with the brush, its so much better than the sponges..
2. I prefer loose powders( mineral) it leaves a great finish, and its not bad for the skin.

I prefer a brush, but I have more sponge things.
I prefer mineral but I have more hard powder :L:L

2. Loose Powder (mineral)
1- am used to the brush
2- loose powder i can get very messy with it
1) a brush- it's more precise and easier to clean

M.A.C eyeshadow application help?
Okay, so a couple of months ago, I bought some eyeshadow palettes from M.A.C.'s ';Antiquitease: Royal Assets'; collection (cool eyes and warm eyes). How can I apply it so that the colors really stand out on my eyelids? How do other women get it so shiny looking? Do I need to buy some eye primer or something? Thanks for your help.M.A.C eyeshadow application help?
to get the colour to show up vibrantly:
use a base, the best bases are MAC 'paint pots' (get a neutral like painterly) or MAC 'shadesticks' (get beige-ing)
use a flat eyeshadow brush (like a MAC 242 or 252 brush, or a concealer brush) and PRESS the eyeshadow on, don't swipe it.
I got the same palettes as you did lol, they're so pretty! I got the warm and cool too!M.A.C eyeshadow application help?

Help with eyeshadow application :)?
I need help with putting on eyshadow. Im 19 and wear it everyday, but it never seems to look like I want it to. How do people like..I guess...get it darker in the creases, without it looking like costume makeup? How do they get it to look like it was done by a professional? Instructions please :)Help with eyeshadow application :)?
My favorite way to apply my shadow is start with a neutral color something that is a pinkish tan and cover the entire lid just to add a light but full coverage, then I apply a silver or white from the center to the outer part right underneath the eyebrow to have a raised eyebrow effect. Then I take a medium color and apply it to the lids and brush a dark shade (a few swipes) in the crease right above the medium color. In the end if its to dark take blush brush and sweep it over your lids until well blended.
if your eyes are hazel / brown good colors to use are greens
Golden hues look great paired with blue eyes. Another tip if your eyes are spaced far apart a dot of white shimmer on the inner corners will draw them together, and if your eyes are set close then a dot of white shimmer at the outer corners with draw them apart!Help with eyeshadow application :)?
Go to your local department store - most makeup contours offer free makeup application with purchase, so just ask for advice, on both the products and the how-to for the look you want.

Use different colors for the different parts of your lid and brow. You can get...cases I guess is the word, with usually three colors that go together. I know for sure that Covergirl and Maybelline have these. There will be instructions on the back of how to do it.
Typically, you should have a medium color on the lid, dark in the crease, and light on the brow-bone going up to your eyebrows. Put a little bit of light shadow in the corner of your eye right next to your nose. It's amazing how much it opens and brightens your eye.
I find that using make-up brushes to apply shadow provides better results than using the sponges that come in eyeshadow containers. You can get better control of how much you put on, especially if you're using a powder shadow.

Eyeshadow Application Question!!?
I have a eyeshadow brush and I have a eyeshadow brush with a sponge tip and I was wondering which one is better to use between the two?? and whats the difference when it comes to applying eyeshadow with the sponge tip and the brush?!?Eyeshadow Application Question!!?
Brush - lighter, softer look
Sponge - Intense, darker lookEyeshadow Application Question!!?
Definitely use the eyeshadow brush , it's easier to apply and it comes out with a more fresh/clean look , though with a eyeshadow sponge your makeup looks heavier and contrived
It goes on better with the brush. The applicator pulls at the skin, doesn't go on even %26amp; the applicator wastes more eyeshadow where it gets packed in the applicator.
Brush--powder eyeshadows
Sponge--cream eyeshadows
The brush will make the eyeshadow appear more natural and less thick. The sponge is for the ';bold'; look.
use the sponge 4 a more precise application and to smudge. use the brush to blend and apply all over colour
a sponge you can dab it and you can swereve it. you can do different patterns with it. For a just out and about look use that.
A regular brush just helps apply it. use that for a smooth going to dinner look. then layer the color with the sponge.
i would go with sponge tip because it gives more of a natural look....and it fits the eye...
To me,the eye shadow brush is better in terms of if you want to blend colors together, whereas the eye shadow brush with the sponge tip is if you are just applying just one color on your whole eye lid. I prefer using the eye shadow brush or my fingers because I tend to blend my colors, and I read somewhere that the eye shadow brush with the sponge tip is not good to use.
Brush= Natural flawless coverage, better for blending
Sponge= Clumpy, noticable, generally not good for applying eyeshadows, may occasionally be used for wet eyeshadows
they have different looks to them i think i would use the regular 1 myself not sponge
brush is better and the difference is that with the sponge it could appear more darker an area and with the brush you can measure the level of how much color you want an area.
the rush would probably be lighter and more 'sweep' looking. the sponge would probably be more precise. it all depends on the look youre going for

Eyeshadow application problem!?
I always apply eye shadow to work and when I arrive in the office, my eye shadow would have smudged. I have double eyelid so the eyeshadow would smudge upwards and downwards and also form a thick line of powder at the double eyelid cease. Please advise on the proper way to prevent this!Eyeshadow application problem!?
I would have to agree, your problem would be easily solved with a primer. There are several you can choose from at Ulta. I'll leave you the link...
http://www.ulta.com/ulta/browse/productL鈥?/a>Eyeshadow application problem!?
Try using an eye fix primer! Elizabeth Arden has one and it's wonderful, a little pricey but worth it!
MAC also carries one and it's great as well. I had the same problem, now I don't leave home with out using it!
Good luck!
put either your base on your eye lid or try an eyeshadow primer , urban decay, (they help the eyeshadow to stay in place and you also end up using less eyeshadow.)!!
hope this helps!!
put concealer on your lid before you apply your shadow or apply shadow with a damp/wet brush
Put alittle foundation on your eyelid.

I like the creamy stuff because you can just use your finger and it's easier and neater looking. and it doesn't get on your eyelashes. I hate that.

I just bought an eyeshadow 5-set, any tips for application?
THe colours are
a creamy white
a dark grey
a navy blue
a dark blue
a bright blue.
My first instinct is to avoid the bright blue at all costs, is this a good idea?
I have blue/grey eyes dark hair and fair skin.
Thanks guys!I just bought an eyeshadow 5-set, any tips for application?
Try doing n eyeliner effect with either the dark blue or the navey by putting a think like of shadow just above the eyelashes, then the creamy white all over the lid, the dark grey on the outside corner of your eyes and if you are feeling brave put a small dot of bright blue in the inside corner of your eyes.I just bought an eyeshadow 5-set, any tips for application?
Hi
Apply eye shadow primer from lashes to brows. It would help your eyeshadow last longer. Most eyes look better when the emphasis is on the outer corner of the eye. Applying foundation on the eyelids provides a good canvas to spread the eye shadow.

Covering eyebrows and eyeshadow application?
Hi, I would like to know how to cover my eyeybrows, so I can use a stencil and eyebrow poweder to create a look, and I would also like to know how to apply eyeshadow to obtain a glamourous and dramatic look(think Drag Queen)? XOXOXO, Boom BoomCovering eyebrows and eyeshadow application?
there are couple ways you can do it . 1. you can thin out your brows and draw stencil with them. 2. or you can just shave them and draw them how ever you want. if you want glamour honey then use lots of colors that pop out but not too whorey lol and try to choose a really good color that will go good with your skin color and be sure to use black eyeliner and heavy black mascara.Covering eyebrows and eyeshadow application?
Don't know about covering...sounds complicated, like you'd need to apply a rubber layer and glue it, movie makeup style. Most people shave them if they want to draw them on for dramatic effect. Perhaps not so great for the work week, though.
Eyeshadow...use three different tones. Start with a nearly white, shimmery base all over eyelid and up to brow. apply dark liner (preferably a powder that you dip a wet liner brush in and paint on, or a liquid liner). Extend the line to a peak at outer eye corner. Apply the darkest shadow just above the liner, thickening at the outer corner of eyelid. Use the medium tone in the crease, concenrating on the outer eye portion. Look at pictures to get an idea of how this turns out, esp. 80s make up techniques.
Actor's putty, the kind that you can use to apply over your nose to change it's shape or to create a pointed chin. Put a thin application over the eyebrow hairs, just enough to fill in, hold them down and cover. Make sure that your flesh make-up makes them match the rest of your skin.
My newest discovery for making shadow last long is cover stick, in the store it looks like flesh colored lipstick, but covers discolorations, etc. It needs a dot of cream to cover well. Any powder shadow that you put on top will look great and last long. Haven't tried it over Actor's putty yet.
For dramatic think of blue with green or blue with lavender/purple. Choose according to what you can find. Use light shades and dark shades to emphsise the raised and recessed areas above the eye. Darker color goes on the outerside of your lids with maybe a little toward the nose and also into the fold above the lid. Lighter color over the middle, raised part of your eye. Blend to get that airbrushed look. Between the lids and your new eyebrows, use a light shade of your main color. If you want to mix colors here too, then go for it. But this is a great place for shine, so glitter can be fun in gold or silver or holographic. Just so long as it stands out from the color underneath, for drama.
Have fun! And practice first.
You can use wax to cover them and then use dermablend makeup and setting powder. Once it dries you can pencil whatever you want in.
drag queen sounds about right...

Eyeshadow application question?
I just bought some new eyeshadows from Urban Decay. Some of them have little bits of glitter in them. When I apply the eyshadow some of these little bits of glitter somehow end up on my cheeks and its really hard to get off.So then my question is how do I prevent the glitter from ending up on my cheeks as well as if I do get glitter there what is the best way to get it off?Thanks.Eyeshadow application question?
put some tissues under ur eyes when ur applying eyeshadow ..
or apply some loose powder and then after finishing ur eyeshadow , dust it wz any brush =))Eyeshadow application question?
There's really no way to prevent the glitter from falling from the shadow brush. But, get you a blush brush and use that to wipe the glitter off. Just brush it off!

What is an eyeshadow that does not smudge after application?
I love wearing eyeshadow, but avoid doing so if it's an affair longer than 2 hours since I've noticed my eye shadow wears off fast and wipes-off/smudges on the area below my eyebrow from blinking. What eyeshadow is there that you can put on and it will stay on for a long time just the way you put it?What is an eyeshadow that does not smudge after application?
Use a base before applying eyeshadow. A good primer will prevent the smudging, shows the color better and stays on longer. Try Clinique's Touch Base for Eyes...you won't be sorry!
great thing about clinique...if you don't like it..you can return it even if you've used it!What is an eyeshadow that does not smudge after application?

What can make a difference is what color eyeliner you're using. Using dark brown instead of black would make your eyes look less scary if black eyeliner gives you a bug eyed look. lol I don't know about eyeshadow really. I guess don't go passed your crease and stay away from dark colors, it might make your big eyes look spooky hahah
If you have big eyes, then you need to show them off ! Don't try to make them look smaller. I have big eyes %26amp; i love them, and so does everyone else. They are so pretty. And not everyone is blessed with big pretty eyes.
Try doing the sokey eye affect. Seach it on youtube

What can make a difference is what color eyeliner you're using.

Eyeshadow application dark brown eyes fair skin?
I have dark brown eyes, fair skin. My hair is also dark brown/black. I always pick the same color for eyeshadow and I can't seem to find three colors/shades that work well together. Any ideas? Thanks.Eyeshadow application dark brown eyes fair skin?
Most quads that are sold together are supposed to work together, but i find that its better to actually experiment %26amp; see what's best.
I also have brown eyes %26amp; i tried a couple of variations. actually im still waiting for my Coastal Scent Palette to arrive.
But from what i have experimented so far i like the combination between vanilla whites, purples %26amp; blues. I have brown eyes %26amp; the colors i put depends on what mood im in. Like if im feeling a little down %26amp; i wanna cheer up, i mostly put bright colors like green, not on the entire lid though. What i do is put some vanilla shimmer on the lid, then put a light green at the outer edge of the eye, then blend it. it makes my eyes look bright. Plus of course a touch of mascara.
Now, if you wanna just go for a simple look,opt for neutral colors, shades that are earth tones, brownish, charcoals %26amp; navy blues.
If you want your eyes to stand out, you can go for green %26amp; whites (like what i did, also purples, blues %26amp; golds.)
One thing that's about us brown-eyed women is that we can wear almost colors..
how fun is that? ^_^
You will never go wrong with navy or charcoal shades for it compliments all colors of eyes
For the liner, it's your choice, if you would just like to opt for a simple look, you can line your upper lid, just a thin line, then curl your lashes, then use mascara...leave the bottom lash bare..just put mascara on it...
If you would want to emphasize your eyes, do a smokey look,then line your top %26amp; bottom lids. Always always curl your lashes...it will open up your eyes..its a must to curl the lash when sporting a smokey eye..because if not, it will hide your eyes..on which we don't want to happen because we want to actually emphasize your eyes, that's why you are doing a smokey look.
If you would want to have the 'wake-up-y'; eye, just put a dot of white color near you tear duct area.
This youtuber got brown eyes %26amp; you can get ideas what colors you would like to use on teh videos that she does:

But what i would suggest is for you to actually experiment.
like put one eyecolor on the right, another one on the left. see which compliments your eye, experiment with lining it, like should you also line the waterline?or just the top?
should you go for a winged-eyed or cat-eye..whatever..
go %26amp; have fun experimenting!

You could also try using non prescription colored contacts. I have them in blue and violet and I love them. Plus the brighter contacts really help to make your eyes look bigger. It's just something fun to do to change up your look. People who know you will know they're fake but who cares, they still look really good. :]
any shade of purple or plum and brown eyeliner and mascara work best for bringing out brown eyes

Eyeshadow application?
i have asian eyes. not the really squinty slanted ones. somwhere in the middle. i dont have a crease. how do i put on eyeshadow using the tricolor ones to define my eyes.. i have almost black eyes.Eyeshadow application?
I suggest a purple-ish color pallette.
Darkest along your lash lines.
Next lighter color over entire lid.
Lightest color along your brow-bone.
Blend.
Voila! Beautiful dark eyes that get noticed.Eyeshadow application?
well, you can use a q-tip and apply it, start with the darkest, the medium, then the lighest on the out side...use your fingers to smear it so that it blends in...it helps to use a natural looking pencil to shade/sketch in creases if you want, but not to look too that obvious...it also helps to just set aside sometime and experiment with make-up..good luck
I would use an angle brush. The medium color goes on the lid and the lightest goes underneath your brow (some colors look funny there). Use the the darkest color on your lash line also with the angle brush you can put it in the corners of your eyes. You could always make a crease by using the dark color and blending it down to your lid.
