How to use lipstick to apply eye shadow

The love of beauty is innate in all women. Girls who often wear makeup must pay great attention to lipstick. But do you know? Lipstick can not only create exquisite and sexy lips, but also create a pair of charming and enchanting eyes. You can try this new eye makeup method. Lightly tap the lipstick a few times in the center of the eyelid, just like you usually apply eye shadow, and then blend it. You will be surprised to find that the makeup effect is no less than that of eye shadow powder.

1. Steps to apply eye shadow with lipstick

Step 1: If you want to use lipstick to create better eye shadow, you must first set your eyes. This can effectively prevent the color of the lipstick from clumping and the greasy lipstick from making the eyes too oily.

Step 2: First, use an eye shadow brush to pick up a proper amount of lipstick, and then apply it between and on the double eyelids. The part close to the eyelashes can be slightly darker.

2. Other uses of lipstick

1. Lipstick turns into contour powder

Lipstick goes on more firmly than powder, so it's best to go for a lipstick with a softer color that isn't too dark or thick. After applying a proper amount of lipstick on the brush, start from the hairline of the cheekbones and apply to the corners of the mouth to create the effect of a small face. The color can be gradually deepened. Pay attention to the area and be careful not to apply too much or too heavily at one time.

2. Lipstick turns into blush

Apply lipstick to the protrusion below the base of your thumb, rub it slightly to warm the lipstick with the temperature of your palm, then use the cheekbone as the center of the circle, press it on the skin and blend it to both sides. This way of applying it outwards will make the face look more defined.

3. What are the misunderstandings about eye shadow painting?

1. Adding glitter randomly

Some people think that “eye shadow must be glittery”, but in fact, the trend of glittering eye shadow is over, and glittery eye shadow is not very suitable for daily work and life. Today's eye makeup emphasizes strengthening the eye contour. If you really like glitter eyeshadow, you can choose to use your fingers to dip the eyeshadow powder and pat it twice above the eyeball and in the center of the eyelid.

2. Blindly follow Korean cosmetics

The almost invisible eye makeup of the heroines in Korean dramas is very popular, but unless you have the fair skin of Jun Ji-hyun, it is best to add some light brown color to avoid looking tired. Brown eye shadow is very natural and can also create a good eye contour.

3. Picking the wrong color

Many people choose eye shadow colors based on what they wear that day, which is not wrong, but sometimes color is not everything. Some colors are difficult to control unless you are a master. It is recommended to only choose eye shadow colors that match your skin tone and temperament.

4. Eyeshadow doesn’t smudge

Nowadays, many people use eye shadow by simply dipping the sponge head that comes with it into the eye shadow color and applying it on the eyelids without any blending action. The eyeshadow drawn in this way will have no transition between colors, and will appear as stripes, which will not only look ugly but also tacky. The blending step of eye shadow is very important. Blend the boundaries between colors and the outer edges so that it will look natural and comfortable.
