Your eyes are one of your biggest assets. It is said that a person’s soul
can be seen from their eyes and yours are no exception! Here are
some quick and easy tips to help you make your eyes more
seductive.
1. Start with concealer: this will get rid of dark circles and shadows
under your eyes. Always pat never rub concealer into your skin.
2. Apply eye base: this will stop eye make up from getting caught in
the creases of your eye. It will also help to keep your make up to
look fresh for a long time.
3. Eye shadow: This is where the fun begins. To make your eyes look
wonderful use a 3 tone effect like the pros.
a. Initially use a light color from lid to brow bone
b. Secondly use a slightly darker shade on your lid
c. Use the darkest color in the crease of your lid.
d. Blend them well.
4. Apply eyeliner: You can use a darker shade of eye shadow for a
beautiful effect. Just wet a brush that is slanted and apply the eye
shadow. Put it as close to your eye lash line as you can. For the
bottom of your eyes only make the line from the middle to the outer
edge, and then smudge it with your finger or a cotton bud.
5. Make your eyes stand out: with highlighter, create a v shaped
design from top to bottom of the inner corner of your eye blend in.
Use gold or pink for this as white will be too bold.
6. Highlight your brows: You can use the same shade of highlighter to
use on your brow bone. Apply from the middle to the outside and
blend.
7. Last of all apply your mascara. You can create a warmer look with a
brown color instead of black.
These steps do not take long and will make you stand out in the crowd.
For added effect if you have long lashes be sure to curl them.
Always match your eye shadow with your eyes and of course the clothes
you are wearing. Remember to blend everything well. Subtlety
equals seductive. You can also be part of the trend and give your
eyes the “smoky look.”

Correcting your eye shape:
• Close together: emphasize the outer corner of the eye. This will give
the illusion of your eyes being further apart.
• Too far apart: draw attention to the inner corner of the eyes.
• Too small: use lighter shades to make eyes bigger and use a darker
shade on the crease and outer edge of the eye. When applying
eyeliner to the upper lid taper it at the outward corner to make the
eye longer.
• Drooping eyes: Do not use eyeliner just use some eye shadow on
the outer corner of your eye. Apply the color upwards and outwards.
Highlight your brows. Concentrate your mascara in the inner
corner of your eye. You can also use a silver or gold color on the inner
corner of the eye.
