When you choose to apply eye make-up for night time, special care is advised. This is because, what would look appropriate during the day, might go simply unnoticed at a night time party. Therefore, you need eye make-up that stand out even in the darkest hours of the night without going overboard.
Tips to Apply Eye Make-up for Night Time
- Begin by washing your face thoroughly for a fresh look. Next, apply a moisturising complex all over.
- Apply a base shadow all across the upper eyelid, spanning from the brow line to the lashes.
- Now, you would need to use eyeliner for defining the shape of the eye. Use it on the bottom of the eye and from the inner to the outer corner. Make sure the lines are uniform and continuous. You can use black, since the make-up is meant for night time. You can also opt for browns or smoky shades. Greens and purples as well as similar such jarring colours need to be avoided for nocturnal make-up.
- Now, use a Q-tip for smudging the liner and blending it along with the base shade. Make sure that the eyeliner has been smudged well and is not standing out like a fine line.
- Once the smudged look has been accomplished, apply a dark shaded eye shadow. Apply it on the external area of your eye up to midway. Now smudge it midway on to the brow bone.
- This eye shadow which has been applied on to the eyeliner will help the shade to create an impact on the eyes.
- Subsequently, lighter medium shades of eye shadow should be applied on the eyelids. Since it is night time, you can also use bronze, gold and silver glitters on the eye lids as well, for that shimmering look.
- The brow bone needs to be highlighted with simple shades such as white, platinum, wheat or beige. Bright colours should be avoided.
- Consider applying a couple of coats of mascara. Use them on your eyelashes for a remarkable impact.
- Now, if there are any shadow powder or smudges on the under eye, clear them up. Touch up with some face powder.
- You can also use glitter dust particles around the eyes, and on the cheekbones.
