The most frequently asked question when it comes to make up is, how to apply eye make up? Listed below is a step by step guide to show you exactly how to apply eye make up.

Some Easy Eye Makeup Tips

• Start with a freshly exfoliated face.

• To hide under eye dark circles, select a cosmetic under eye concealer of a good brand.

• Make sure that it is one shade lighter than the foundation you are using.

• Place three dots of concealer under each eye.

• Start at the inner corner where the skin is darkest, on under the pupil and on the outer edge.

• Strike with your ring finger until the dots disappear and blend into the skin.

• Generally, avoid concealers with and oil base as they tend to settle into the fine lines under your eyes and draw attention to the circles.

Apply Eye Shadow

• Eye shadows are used to enhance the charm of your eyes and are an all-time favorite make-up accessory. They can be powdered, matted or semi matted.

• You need to make sure that the eye shadow you select enhances your eyes instead of dominating them.

• If your eyes are too close together, apply the shadow from the centre of the eye lid towards the outside.

• If the eyes are in a hollow, apply the shadow on the whole eye lid as far as the underside of the eyebrow and then shade it off with the finger.

• If fine lines surround your eyes, shade off the shadow towards the outside of the eyelid.

• Apply a little shadow beneath the eyes along the lower lash line to give your eyes a subtle glamorous look.

• If you are using two colors, start with the lighter shade from the inner corner of the eye covering the lid and below the brow bone.

• Build on this with a darker color in the crease, from the centre and brush till the end of the eyebrow.

Apply Eyeliner

• A thin line of eyeliner is the perfect way to give a new definition to your eyes.

• Liquid eyeliners work well with most eyes. Draw a line across the upper lid just above the lashes starting from the inner corner to the other.

• Remember, liquid liner has to be applied in one smooth stroke.

• Dark eye shadows work great as eye liners. However, the eyeliner pencil is definitely the easiest to use and has the most natural effect, but it does not last long.

• Highlighting the Brow Bone

• Dab a little highlighter on your brow bone, concentrating on your mid brow.

• Gently smudge with a finger.

• To lift your eyes and for creating a bright effect, you can choose shimmer white or pale gold as they are in vogue.

Apply Mascara

• The final step is to apply mascara that will prep your eyes with flaps of thick, long eyelashes.

• Coat lashes with the mascara wand from the very base of the upper eye lashes to the tips with full strokes.

• Hold the wand vertically while applying mascara to the lower lashes, running it from side to side.

• Apply a thin coat first and wait until it dries up completely, then build up with a second coat.

• When applying mascara to the lower lashes, gently brush the tip of the applicator across them as it gives your eyes a wider look.

• You may opt for mascaras that contain ingredients for nourishing the eyelashes.
