1 Dark purple
1 Lighter Purple
1 Very light blue
1 Very light purple.
how would i apply this tommorrow morning???
thanks!Anyone who's good at applying eyeshadow; please answer this question!!!?
Lighter purple on the lid
Very light purple on the crease (between lid and brow bone)
Very light blue on the brow bone to highlight
Dark purple on the outer corner.
Remember to blend! If the light blue is darker than the light purple then use the blue on the crease instead of the brow bone and use the light purple on the brow bone.Anyone who's good at applying eyeshadow; please answer this question!!!?
I just bought a new L'Oreal 4pan eyeshadow and the colors come numbered now.
#1 goes all over your eyelid
#2 goes at the very top only (like a small line right below your eyebrow)
#3 make a line across the middle of your eyelid
#4 fill in from the middle line down to your eye
If you need more help, email me and I will explain better
I agree with the last poster, she is correct..usually on the quads it shows you where to wear each color....I am not sure if all of them do, but make up that I buy does....good luck sweetie...knock em dead tomorrow.....
dark purple on lid of eye lighter purple under eyebrow very light blue under eye and very light purple above dark purple
I would apply light purple on the eyelid right up to the crease. Then dark purple in the crease applying it outward. Light blue on the bottom lid right under the lashes and connect it to the dark purple. Blend. Lighter purple as a highlight on your brow bone.

I'm not good at applying eyeliner. Can I use brown/black eyeshadow + Vaseline or something instead?
I have blue eyes if that helps any.I'm not good at applying eyeliner. Can I use brown/black eyeshadow + Vaseline or something instead?
Sure you can but i would still out on a little eyeliner. This video helped me out VERY GOOD! Go to youtube and type in panacea81 thats the girls username and she has TONS of makeup videos that are excellent! It WILL help you! Not just on applying eyeliner but how to use eyeshadow for it. You will just to look and watch a couple of videos. Hope i helped! :)I'm not good at applying eyeliner. Can I use brown/black eyeshadow + Vaseline or something instead?
same here lol, any way I use ';Cake Eyeliner'; It's easier to use and can be bought at any store that caries make up, you use a little water on a brush and then go from there.
If you have a nice brush you might be able to use some cream stage makeup instead (I use this on shows a lot) but, I wouldn't use it for every day use because the makeup is oily as all hell
with blue eyes i would suggest just using a dark eyeshadow close to the eyes, but not as eyeliner. a dark eyeshadow will make you blue eyes pop therefore doing the good part of eyeliner(accenting the eyes) without the bad parts(making them look smaller)
hmmmmm. I used to not be good at it either. Instead try using the maybelline kohl eye liners with the smudge tip, or any eyeliner with a smudger cuz this will help a lot. You can get this at any drugstore or ulta.
hope i helped : )
Oh la la, dont use vaseline! Learn how to put eyeliner... it's easy, it's like tracing a line with a pen on a paper. You just gotta get used to it; at first your hand will shake but after it will be like a reflex
Same with eyeshadow
You can use eyeshadow for eyeliner just get an angled brush and apply at the lash line. Do not use vaseline on your eyes, if you apply the eyeshadow right you won't need it anyway, it will only smear
liquid eyeliner might be easier for you or it would work if you got a thin brush and put eye shadow along the edge of you eyelid so it wouldnt be quite so bold since you have light eyes
i dont think vaseline will look good with black eyesgadow ,prob looks messy instead i jist encuraged you to practice like putting it on all the time if thast too hard than just wear the eyshaddow with a primmer not vaseline.
if you get liquid eyeshadow you can use that as eyeliner. it comes in a pen kind of thing..i think its maybelline. works great.
I've tried using Vaseline, but it isn't very good with doing eyeliner. Try using a eye primer, and then putting on the shadow.

How do i apply eyeshadow so it makes a difference to my face?
I have eyes that are sometimes green and sometimes blue (people have said both) and i use eyeshadow for green eyes. Do i apply a darker color to my eyelid and a lighter shade to the skin above it? I've used it before and have put the darker shade on my lid and the lighter shade above it. It hasn't really made any difference. Can someone help? Thanks :)How do i apply eyeshadow so it makes a difference to my face?
i guess when it comes to make up now a days, you can really do however you like, however.. the traditional way that always seems to make a winner would go something like this (you can improvise if you don't have three different shades)
the medium color should go on your lid and also a little above. the darkest in the crease of your eyelid and the lightest as a shimmer/highlight just below the brow... if you'd like to emphasize your eyes a little more, you can do a little on the bottom of the eye lid around the eyelashes and they can give a little sparkle there too.How do i apply eyeshadow so it makes a difference to my face?
First of all, your eyebrows, although most people skip grooming them can make a world of a difference. Get them professionally waxed and then fill them in with an eyeshadow or eyebrow powder three shades lighter than your natural eyebrow color. Next, set them in place with a bit of clear mascara.
Apply a medium shade from lids to creases, and a darker shade right in the crease (where it sinks into your socket) blend it out and up a little bit at the outer corners to get a sexy, cat eye effect. Apply the lightest shadow (off white works great) under your brow bone and on the inner corner. Line your eyes only two thirds of the way in (Lining all the way around your eyes makes them small and closed off) And line your lower lash line with the darkest eyeshadow. Also, try using a white eyeliner on your inner rims and inner tear duct (will brighten up eyes!)
Lastly, do curl your eyelashes and wear mascara, it will make a huge difference.
Here is a neat youtube video on how to make your eyes pop!
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=peMx4ZW0R鈥?/a>
wat u should do is just pick one good color like a dark blue or any type of of color that u like on u n choose it for eyeshadow n then put eyeliner on ur eyes n make it dark n then add mascara use a good mascara like collaso n it shud make ur eyes pop it works on mine i hoped i helped...:)
none, im a guy to much is whorish, to little makes u look like u dont know what your doing, i say go natural and stop tryin to look like barbie and be yourself, dont wear none
Put the darkest shade on your eyelid AFTER applying eyeliner. Make sure you smudge it alot and add the lightershades about that up to your eyebrow bridge.
Goodluck :)
You can go on youtube.com and look up some tutorials and experiment different looks on yourself and see what works for you1

Applying eyeshadow to no-crease eyes?
I've never worn eyeshadow before because of my no-crease asian eyes. (Don't have an upper lid or lower lid.) Thought I'd give it a try for a wedding I'll be in. I wear glasses, so I want my eyes to stand out... but don't want it to look overly dramatic. I've always been afraid of looking like a clown. Any tips you can share with me would be really helpful. Thanks!Applying eyeshadow to no-crease eyes?
If you've never worn eyeshadow before you will definitely have to play with it for a little while before getting it right. What I like to do is go to make up counters like MAC have them do your eyes. Let them know that you never use eyeshadow before and would like to try it for a wedding your going to be in.
Usually they are friendly and will even show you how to do your own eyes. You don't have to buy it there if you are strapped for cash. You can then go to a local Wal Mart and get generic brands with similiar color.
If you don't have a steady hand or not getting the hang of liquid eyeliner, its best to use a shadow with an angle brush. It took me over 2 years to finally get my best friend (how is half Japanese and half Chinese) off of liquid. If you don't apply liquid eyeliner correctly it looks horrible. A Dark shadow is more forgiving than liquid :)
If you don't want to do the make up yourself, you could try and schedule time before the wedding to have the make up counter do your make up. They will probably want you to make a minimun purchase.
Remember to look closely at the Cosmetic Lady's make up, if her make up is sloppy you probably won't like how she apply's your make up. You could also have her do your make up before the wedding and if you like it, schedule something with her the day of the wedding :)Applying eyeshadow to no-crease eyes?
Try liquid liners. You can paint those lines right with a liquid liner. Also even applying an eye shadow with a narrow makeup brush will look nice. If you watch the style channel or TLC What Not To Wear ( shows and channels of that sort) , they will give you ways to do it.
Use something shimmery that's close to your skin tone in a warm color. Apply it lightly, so that your eyes are shimmery and warm without looking too bold or too soft.

How can I apply eyeshadow using brushes and cream eyeshadow?
I have cheap BR (dollar store) makeup but I hope to get pigments in the future.
Please include a image of the brushes if you can and also advise me how to put on cream and pigments.Thank You I may add more details.How can I apply eyeshadow using brushes and cream eyeshadow?
i dont think it would be a good idea to put cream on the brush , but for just the powder you can just buy a little brush set from a wal-mart or any store like that, %26amp; its usualy the 2nd smallest brush in the set you use the smallest one is for your lippss :P

Before applying eyeshadow should i put a base?
yeaBefore applying eyeshadow should i put a base?
you should use a base when using eyeshadows, it will help the shadow last longer and depending on the base you use it can make the color more intense. I use Urban Decay Potion Primer, this is the best primer/base that I have used and I am a makeup artist.Before applying eyeshadow should i put a base?
Yes. It allows the true/actual color of the eye shaddow to come through. It also allows the color to last, instead of smudging off.
Yes, the eyeshadow will stay on longer. Try urban decay primer potion.
yeaa Ive heard it makes the eyeshadow last longer
Normally I dab a bit of my foundation on my eyelids as well so that the powder stays put.
Definately! it will help it stay on longer and it won't crease (ew)
hope I helped =]
Yes, because it'll last longer and won't crease up on you.
yup
yes its going to last longer

Applying Eyeshadow Is SUCH a hassle...(points!)?
I just watched a tutorial on how to apply this eyeshadow I just bought.
Its called Maybelline Expert Wear Stylish Smokes and I applied it to the exact areas that they labeled and said to do...
And after watching the tutorial hers looks amazing and when I stepped into the sunlight it just looked like crap....and this happens with all my make up...it looks horrible in natural lighting...
Enough said...
What is the problem...
I did put moisturizer and I did have a base...Applying Eyeshadow Is SUCH a hassle...(points!)?
What I do that works for me. Use your finger! You get the best control. and you know how much is going on. And getting the smoky look. I put a little on on side of my finger and pull!
No worrying about those stupid spongy ones that you have use for one color only, and brushes. Best is, your finger is easier to clean off.
The smoky effect is hard to get. Practice, practice! And no one will be that close to really see as close as you are in the mirror. That is if you get as close as me!Applying Eyeshadow Is SUCH a hassle...(points!)?
Ok here is what I do. Wear a touchbase for your eyes. this makes your eyeshadow MORE vibrant and rich. Also, depends on what you are wearing. I like the smoky eye look. I use the touchbase, and after I apply that, then I take my black eyeliner and line my eyelid. Then I apply my black eyeshadow and rub it in. Try using an eye brush to smooth it in. But dont put too much on the applicator, use a little at a time. and just rub in. try that. hopefully that helps.
Go to Sephora and buy primer.
It's a thick liquid cream and you basically put it on before you do your eyeshadow. It works soooo well. I used to have the same problem all the time and then I tried the primer and it really worked. Now i use it all the time and I am so happy I tried it.
Also make sure you have really good brushes. Believe it or not but brushes have a big impact on that.
Hope I helped and good luck! :)
It just takes a ton of practice and you have to get used to using the product. Thats how I got good at doing make up. Just sit in front of the mirror and do it until you get comfortable and the desired result.
Ya make sure you have good brushes [ or at least ones that you know how to control ]
also, blend blend blend!
