Smokey Glaze

A smokey eye is scary for anyone starting with eyeshadow looks. It’s all about building up the darker colors slowly and gradually till you get the eyeshadow look you are trying to achieve. Start with light grey color and slowly start to build that up by adding a little bit of black at a time till the dark smokey eye is achieved. Take a black or dark grey shimmery eyeshadow and pat it on top of your eyelid. This will give the eyeshadow look that glossy look without having to use gloss on your eyelids. You also could get eye glaze to actually get the smokey glaze look but the shimmery eyeshadow is more long-lasting.

Two Color Bold Lid

For this, you will need two vibrant eyeshadow colors. If you want to go for a holiday look then try using a red and green eyeshadow. This look is a little tricky to achieve but if you take your time it’ll be really easy to do. First, put down a white base so that the colors can pop. Blend around your crease and a little over the crease blending it into a winged look. You want to keep the lid space sparse so that you can add the second color over top. Using whatever white base you used previously, trace out the same wing shape you made with the red on the inside of the lid. Fill that in with white than over the white and pat in the green color. This will create a really unique looking two-colored cut crease.

Shimmering Warm Tones

This is a great beginner eyeshadow look because it’s something that every beginner can easily learn and do for their everyday makeup. To start off, gather your palette with all your warm tone browns and maybe reds. Start with a skin tone transition color on the crease to allow the other eyeshadows to blend well together. Then take a slightly darker brown tone and blend that into the crease. Once that’s done now blend on a brown color to the edge of the crease and on the edge of the eyelid. Apply concealer to the inner crease and blend into the center of your eyelid. Over the concealer pat on some gold or beige shimmer eyeshadow. With the dark brown you used, blend the edge of the shimmer eyeshadow. This look is flawless on anyone and is super easy to achieve.
