If you’ve ever had your makeup professional done for photos or for a wedding, you might have been wondering how the makeup artist did your eyeshadow so perfectly.
I want this tutorial to demystify this area of makeup and give you the tools to recreate a professional makeup exactly as the professionals do eyeshadow.
Transition Shade I prefer to apply with a windshield wiper (back-and-forth) motion and then when all the shadow is applied, I take the same brush and start to do swirling motions to really diffuse the shadow for a perfect blend.
Outer corner Using the same pencil brush and transition shade, hold the brush at your lower lash line, going toward the end of your eyebrow. Now “mark” this shape by placing your eyeshadow down.
Using that same pencil brush, grab a bit more of the transition shade eye shadow. Place it at the tip of the “V” shape we just created and draw the brush in, towards your lid and down, towards your lash line.
