Golden Eyes

It’s a myth that Golden eye shadows are only for discos. Given the right touch golden eye makeup can complement your overall makeup and for all occasions. Since wearing gold eye makeup is not easy as it looks, here is how you can hone your perfect gold eye makeup.

1. Apply light gold shade on the inner corners to the outer corners of your eyes.
2. Apply a brighter golden shade on the  outer 2/3 of  your eyelid.

Create Layers Of Lashes

Ditch the all time eyeliner and shadow with lashes for a trendy look. You can start by applying first coat of mascara on your lashes, then, apply a full strip of falsies (artificial eyeliners) along your lash line.  In case you do not want to add a full strip, just add few clusters of lashes towards the outer corners of each eye to get the look. Apply another coat of mascara to complete the look.

Ombre eyes

Ombre eyes is the latest fashion fad you will notice everywhere. Derived from French word “Ombre”, it basically means colorful shading or graduation. Trust me when i say that creating ombre eyes is one of the easiest eye makeup look you can try at home. In order to get beautiful ombre eyes you have to carefully blend colors to mimic the way the hues of a flower bleed into each other. To achieve the look create dark layer of your preferred color near the lash line and as you move towards your brows keep it fading towards the top. Whichever color you choose for ombre eye makeup all you have to do is ensure that you are giving a perfect gradient effect by keeping darker at bottom and lighter shade of same color while moving up the eyelid.

Silver Eyes

Just like gold eye makeup you can always try silver eye makeup to give yourself a different look. Silver eye makeup is pretty chick that creates a pretty metallic, dewy & icy shades look by using a white cream shadow marked with silver. Finish the look with a black liner and mascara.

White Eyes

For a sexy look wear a white eye shadow with bare lashes (without mascara). Cover your entire eye lid with a white pencil, add white eyeshadow on top to complete the look.  This look is just perfect for a daytime party or outings.
