How to Properly Apply Eye Cosmetics

If you're anything like me, you love cosmetics...especially eye make-up! But you may not know how to use it. Nothing to be ashamed of. Everyone learns at their own pace, and now that you're ready to try flirting up your eyes, I'm here to guide you through the process. Through trial and error, I have come across a method that may be very easy for cosmetic beginners to begin applying their eye shadow. It's time to not be afraid anymore and to be brave...a new you awaits!

The first thing you must do is purchase a good quality eye shadow. If you're on a budget, CoverGirl has some great quality eye shadows at reasonable prices. What you're looking for is colors that will look good on your skin color. Think of your wardrobe and your color preferences. What colors do you get most compliments in? Look for these colors. But when searching for the perfect eye shadow, make sure that the eye shadow has at least three colors in it. Usually, if they come in a case of three, the colors range from lightest to darkest. This is the kind of color palette we need.

When you're done with that, choose a mascara in a black/brown color, as well as a good eyeliner. I suggest you choose the eyeliner called Unstoppable from Maybelline. That stuff goes on smooth and lasts a very long time.

Also, make sure to pick up some make up remover and cotton swabs to fix any mistakes that may be caused as you do your make up. Also, don't forget to get a few extra eye shadow brushes so you won't mix and match colors on the same brush.

Now you're ready to begin your eye's beautifying routine.
