Making of Mist Eye Makeup;
1. Start by filling your eyelid
Before starting the shadow application, you should make sure that you prepare your eye area with the right application. To prepare, you can choose an eyeshadow primer or an illuminating concealer. It helps to smooth your eye area and gives you an area to hold on to your make-up. This application will soften your eyes and create a perfect foundation for shadowing.
2. Choose the Color to Give the Shade
After applying the concealer, you should choose a medium toned eyeshadow to apply the shadow. For classic smoky eye make-up, dark blue, gray, brown or matte tones of green are preferred. You can use glittering tones of red or purple for a different look. There is no rule that smoky eye makeup should always be neutral.
With the help of a flat eyeshadow brush, apply it all over your eyelid, increasing the intensity of the color towards the middle of your eyelid. To further integrate it, you can also apply the same color lightly to your lower eyelashes.
3. Mix Colors
Then choose a shadow color that is compatible with the underlying color but 1-2 shades darker to add dimension to your look. Use a blending brush to blend and apply your chosen color to the outer corner of your eye. Work your way towards the center of your eyelid in tiny circular motions, adding layers to increase the pigments until a smoky look is created. You should create a smooth transition between the two colors you have applied.
4. Highlight!
As a final application, you should apply a shade that is 1-2 tones lighter than your applied color from the fold of your eyelid to your brow bone. This highlight shade will help soften the look a little more. To give your eyes a slightly bright and lively look, highlight the inner corners of your eyes with highlights and diffuse the shadow with the help of a fluffy brush.
5. Equalize Your Eyes
Line your eyes with a black eyeshadow before applying eyeliner. This will ensure that the line is evenly aligned before applying eyeliner, if you have achieved equality, you can apply eyeliner.
If you want to create a slightly foggy eye make-up, you can choose to use gel instead of liquid eyeliner, or you can apply eyeliner. If you want to have a sharp cat-eye, you can choose liquid eyeliner. While creating a smoky and dramatic look with black eyeliner, you can achieve a natural look with a brown pencil.
6. Latest Mascara
After completing the rest of your makeup, you can apply mascara as the last step. In this way, make-up powder does not get all over the eyelashes and allows you to have blacker eyelashes. Also, when applying mascara, you should apply it to your lower lashes before your upper lashes. In this way, when you apply mascara to your lower lashes, you will not get mascara on your eyelids when you look up.
