Applying Eye Shadow

Bridal Beauty Tips from Debbie Jean Bridal Make-up Artist

Apply highlighter
Always apply a highlighter like white or cream directly under your eyebrow bone.  Your highlighter can be shimmery or matte, but generally look effective if they are shimmery. If your eye lid area (part near your lashes) is very small or almost not visible at all – apply your highlighter on your lid area as well, this will create the illusion of more visible lid. 

Apply your shading
Use a deeper shade of brown, beige, grey or stone through your eye crease to add definition and shape to your eyes. Make sure you apply the shading even in colour and blend well, the edges of your application should look smokey and soft.  You can use matte or shimmers through the crease, however I find matte shades through the crease generally look fresher and create more definition.

Completing the look with eyeliner and mascara will be the final step in enhancing your eye shape and colour.  Make sure you use waterproof mascara.
