Things You'll Need:
- Foundation that matches your skin tone
- Eye shadows with sparkles in them
- Lavender colored eye shadow
- Concealer stick
-
Step 1
Take your favorite foundation and apply it from the inside corner of your eyelid to the outside. Then apply in the same manner just below your eyebrow.
-
Step 2
Lightly set the entire area with pressed powder. This serves as a visual trick to "fool the eye" and make your eyes appear as if you've gotten more sleep than you may have. The entire eye area is instantly lightened once foundation is applied.
-
Step 3
Apply an iridescent eye shadow over your entire eyelid. Lavender works nicely with green or blue eyes. A sparkly taupe or green works well with brown eyes. The shimmery quality of this kind of makeup deflects light and highlights the eyes beautifully.
-
Step 4
Run a concealer stick in the semi-circle skin area underneath your eyes. Set with powder. If you chose a shade slightly lighter than your normal foundation, this will give a bit of light to your eye area and make your eyes stand out.
-
Step 5
If you're comfortable with the look, run a black eyeliner on the outside corners of your eyes and inward toward the center. This will give you an edgy "cat woman" kind of look and the black eyeliner is a great contrast with any shade of eyes.
-
Step 6
Finish off your look with a nice coat of mascara. This enhances the contrast of your eyelid and eyes and makes your other makeup stand out. Now you're ready for a night on the town or a day in front of the cameras!
