Eye Makeup Techniques for Spring

Beauty is in the EYE of the beholder ~ The EYE is the gateway of the soul ~ More EYE candy please?  No, matter what your EYE mantra is, there’s one thing we can agree on: the eyes are what people notice most about us. Although most people tend to notice a person’s eye color, the eyes disclose much more than our physical traits. They reveal when we feel coy, playful or indubitably mischievious. They attest to our confidence, our fears as well as our unique beauty. The eyes tell the story of our lives. So, why not tell your story on your terms?

This Spring, use these eye makeup techniques to transform your eyes into  stunning story-telling gateways that say what you want, when you want it said. Here’s how.

Eye Makeup Technique #1 – Color Me Bad

One of the greatest eye enhancers this side of heaven is color, specifically eye shadow. Repeat after me: color is my friend! Applying eye shadow to your eyes immediately illuminates your face. Applying eye shadow along the upper lid and/or on the lower lid, creates an individual frame for your eyes. The result? Fuller, softer and breathtaking eyes. Whether your eyes are brown, blue, green or some thing in between, adding a touch of the right color can take your eyes from simple to stunning.

Eye Makeup Technique #2 – Match Made In Heaven

Yellow plus blue equals green. But did you know that violet plus bronzed gold and hint of charcoal green equal  fabulous? Getting your eyes to pop is all about combining the right colors together. Shannon Nelson teaches us that by mixing and matching shades, we can find the perfect color palette for our eyes. Try combining shimmery rose hues with taupes or tans to create splendid contours and a radiant glow, or combine matte browns with sparkling greens, soft blues and a hint of gold. Oo la la.

Eye Makeup Technique #3 – Liner, Lush Lashes and You

Lashes are definitely the voice of the eye–they speak boldly, coyly and even in delicate whispers. Using mascara plumps, lengthens and volumizes your lashes creating a look that is bold and beautiful. Your eyes will tell your story with confidence, giggles or with sass and flair. You decide. Throw in a charcoal gray, mocha brown or black eyeliner and you’re ready for the runway.

You plus three eye makeup techniques equal one simply stunning set of eyes. Now that’s math you can love!
