For Ladies – How To Apply Your Eye Makeup!!

Eye makeup can define how natural
or dramatic your look is. Whether you want to learn a
process you can use every day or look stunning for a
special occasion, here's how to get it right.
Steps
1. Start with a clean slate. Wash your whole face with a
gentle cleanser before you begin, paying particular
attention to any leftover mascara or eyeliner. If you're
having trouble removing residual eye makeup, try using
cold water or regular lotion on a cotton swab. If you
have dry skin around your eyes or suffer from eczema,
rub a little moisturizer underneath your eyes, as well as
between the outer corners of your eyes and your
temples. Don't put moisturizer on your eyelids – this
will make them greasy, and the makeup you apply will
run off.
2. Even out the skin tone around your eyes. Apply
concealer to dark under-eye circles and to the area
where your inner eye meets your nose. Use your fingers
or a concealer brush to blend the makeup outward to
your cheekbones and nose. Set the concealer by
brushing a loose, flesh-toned powder over it; apply
some powder to your eyelids, as well.

3. Apply eyeshadow. You can use one color, or several.

4. Blend the colors. If you applied more than one color
of eyeshadow, use your fingers or a fluffy, tapered
blending brush to mix the colors a bit. This will create
a more natural, cohesive look.
5. Apply eyeliner. You can use liquid eyeliner, a liner
pencil, or even wet eyeshadow on an angled brush to
line your eyes. Whatever you pick, move across your
upper lash line in tiny, controlled strokes as if you're
drawing a dotted line. Go back and fill in the blanks
with more small strokes. For more drama, line your
lower lashes as well.

6. Curl your lashes. Use an eyelash curler to grip your
upper lashes. Hold the clamp for about five seconds.
Accessing your lashes is easiest if you half-close your
eyes. Remember, always curl before you apply mascara,
never after.
7. Apply mascara. You can apply a little or a lot, and
there are many different brands and formulas for
volume, length and definition. Find a product you're
happy with. Start at the base of your upper lashes and
slowly sweep upward. For a more dramatic effect,
apply mascara to the lower lashes as well. If you want
to apply multiple coats, do it while the first coats of
mascara are still wet – applying a new coat to dry
mascara will result in clumps
