Apply Two Tone Eyeshadow

Applying eyeshadow can be one of trickiest things when it comes to makeup. Especially when you are applying two tones or shades of them together. Follow these steps to get the perfect blend-in look.

Steps

  1. Choose colours. Select two shades that match your outfit. Make sure you select colours that go well with each other. Try not to choose colours that over-contrast.
  2. Select a brush. Use a brush that is specifically for eyeshadow, as it will provide the best results.
  3. Start with your first colour. Dab the brush lightly with your selected colour. This colour will start from the side closest to the nose. Close one of your eyes. Use a mirror. Gently stroke your brush in small strokes that reach halfway through the eyelid.
  4. Apply your second colour. Apply this colour on the remaining half of your eyelid.
  5. Start blending. Using one side of the brush that has not been used, lightly go over the place where both colours join.
  6. Final touch-ups. If the two colours you used do not look nicely blended or unusual, choose a shade that is between them two. Don't use too much of this colour. Apply this shade along the place where both colours join. Then use the clean side of the brush and go over the shade lightly.
  7. Finished.

Tips

  • If applying eyeliner or mascara, always do it after you have applied your eyeshadow.
  • Try glitter eye shadow, it gives a shinier look.
