Makeup of your eyes, windows to the soul, can be little tricky once you have moved past what brush to use, where to apply eyeshadow, how to blend properly and the 4 basic shades to pull off an everyday natural look. Whether you’re a self-proclaimed beginner in makeup who has the basics covered, or a dedicated makeup enthusiast, to have few tricks up your sleeve so you can work that magic and achieve the glamour of on-point makeup. To never be overwhelmed by that comes across in the world of makeup, keep these simple tips to do eye makeup correctly, beautifully and like a Pro from here on out.
Most importantly, ensure your eyelids are clean and then apply a primer on them to avoid eye makeup getting smudged and stays on for longer. Avoid using facial primer which will create a smooth and moisturized canvas on your eyes, thus making the eye makeup to slide around, an eyeshadow primer makes shadows and eyeliner go on smoother and last longer. If the foundation is solid achieving a perfect eye makeup wouldn’t be troublesome, faster and would stay on for longer.
The trick to make your eyelash look denser is a technique called “tightlining,” where you apply the eyeliner as close to the lash-line as possible making it part of your natural lash-line. A popular way to achieve an even easier eyeliner application with this technique is by dotting your lashes and connecting them with brush to create an even stroke. Another trick done by professional makeup artists while doing makeup is by wearing under-eye masks, like gel patches, where they act as an eye shadow catcher and depuff at the same time.
Basic, yet often overlooked, technique is to give your eyelashes a boost while using a curler. If you only pinch the curler upright, you’re only doing it halfway! Fully curl your lashes by pinching at the base and then pinching again with the curler inverted. In a nutshell, pinch-rotate-pinch! Lastly, if you want to make your mascara last longer then stop adding air to dry the product out by pumping the want while pulling it out. Mascara should always be the last step of your eye makeup and to avoid the product from drying out, just swirl it to prevent it from drying out.
Remember these five tips and tricks

1) Cleanliness is healthiness.

2) Tightlining for perfect aligning.

3) Under-eye mask for an easy task.

4) Pinch, Rotate, Pinch

5) Swirl for the butterfly curl
