How to Create a Lady Gaga-Inspired Eye Using Fuchsia Eyeshadow

The unorthodox makeup of singer Lady Gaga appeals to many women. Vibrant color, and an out-of-the-ordinary silhouette on the eye makes her makeup trendy and unique. Creating a Lady Gaga-inspired look can take a great deal of time, if you don't posses the tricks of elite makeup artists today. With a few pointers you can create a Lady Gaga-inspired look using fuchsia eyeshadow. This makeup will look flattering on any skin and eye colors. Wearing the hair in a unique style, such as a high, braided ponytail, will enhance this look.

Things You'll Need

• Eye primer
• Magenta cream eyeshadow
• Shadow brush
• Glittering fuchsia eyeshadow
• Dark brown matte eyeshadow
• Blending brush
• Highlight powder
• Highlighting brush
• Black eyeliner pencil
• Black mascara

Instructions

1. Apply eye primer to the eyelids with your finger. Eye primer is a cream or gel used to prevent creasing of the eyeshadow.

2. Pat a magenta cream eyeshadow onto the eyelid with a shadow brush.

3. Apply a glittering fuchsia eyeshadow over the magenta on the lid. This color gives shimmer and amplifies the pink coloring on the eyelid.

4. Pat a dark brown matte shadow into the outer crease of the eye and gently sweep the color inward toward the inner crease. Use a blending brush to do this.

5. Apply a highlight powder to the upper brow bone with a highlighting brush. Highlighting adds a nice contrast against the fuchsia eyeshadow.

6. Apply black eyeliner to the lower lash line. Keep the line neat so as not to create any smudges. If the liner smudges, use your finger to clean it up.

7. Apply black mascara to the upper lashes only. Wiggle the comb at the root of the lashes to separate them.
