Enhancing the Eyes
Eyes often become the focal point of a makeup look. Key tips include:

-
Brows: Well-shaped eyebrows frame the face. Fill gaps lightly with a brow pencil or powder.
-
Eyeshadow: Neutral tones are versatile for everyday looks. Darker shades add depth and drama, while shimmer or metallic shades enhance evening looks.
-
Eyeliner: A thin line along the lash line can define the eyes subtly. For bolder styles, winged eyeliner adds sophistication.
-
Mascara: Opens the eyes by lengthening and volumizing lashes. Curling lashes before application enhances the effect.
Lips and Cheeks
-
Blush: Adds a healthy flush to the cheeks. Cream or powder blushes can be applied to the apples of the cheeks and blended outward.
-
Lipstick and Gloss: Choose shades that complement your skin tone. For natural looks, nude or soft pinks work well; for bold styles, reds or deep berries make a statement. Lip liner prevents feathering and creates a polished finish.
