Start with clean dry face. Apply foundation and eye primer before applying glitter. If using solid glue, use a makeup applicator or Qtip to apply the glue above the eye lash in a sweeping motion to create the contour you desire. When using liquid glue with an applicator, apply glue in the same sweeping motion but do not allow the glue to dry up before applying the glitter.
If
applying two colors, the darker color should be on the eye lid and the lighter
color should extend from the eyelid to the eyebrow. Apply only enough glue to
do one color at a time.
Start
from the inside corner of the eye and apply eye glue to the outer corner of the
eye. Apply the eye glue to the entire eyelid. Close eye so that glitter will
not fall into eye during application. While the eye glue is still wet, dab your
applicator into your darker colored glitter and then lightly dab onto your
eyelid. Cover the entire layer of eye glue. Once done with the first layer,
repeat the application of eye glue above the darker color to the brow line.
Apply the lighter color glitter in the same manner. Do not brush on glitter, it
will smear. Remove excess glitter with a large brush.

Concealer: the most important thing
is to prepare your eyes with a concealer so that you can cover up all the dark
circles and discolorations under your eye. While applying your concealer, start
with the inner corner where the skin is the darkest, and then slowly stroke your
brush towards the outer edge. Never rub the concealer, but always pat it with
your finger.
2
Eye base: applying an eye base to
the lid of your eyes can keep your eyeshadow for hours. This is like a primer
for your eyes and without it your eyeshadow will become greasy at the end of
the day.

Eyeliner: you could use dark eyeshadows
as a replacement for eyeliner. Take a brush and slightly wet it at the tip and
dip it in a dark eyeshadow. Now, line your eyes as close to the upper lash. You
can follow this up with the liner on bottom eyes. Try to line from the middle
to the outward. Now, smudge the bottom line either with a Q-tip or with your
finger. Do not make any prominent lines because you need to give it a natural
smoky look.

Eyeshadow: it is always best to use
a three toned shadow, especially when you are beginning. You should allow each
eyeshadow to blend with each other to bring out the gorgeous look. Start with
the light color on your lid and sweep it till your browbone. Follow this up
with the medium color and then apply the darker color around the crease. Blend
all well.
5
Eyebrows: take a light shade
eyeshadow preferably brown and apply it on your eyebrows from the interior to
the outward. Now blend this with your finger so that it might look natural.
6
Mascara: Mascara can truly brighten
up your lashes which you can wiggle back and forth. If you do not have heavy
eyelashes, try to use heavy mascara that can create a very thick eyelash
affect.
It
is a good idea to learn how to do makeup on eyes in the correct way to make
them stand out in a pretty and bright way. Once you know the basics, you can
play with different shadows and brushes to achieve different effects for
special occasions and nightwear.
