How to Make your Eyes More Seductive




Your eyes are one of your biggest assets. It is said that a person’s soul can be seen from their eyes and yours are no exception! Here are some quick and easy tips to help you make your eyes more seductive.

1. Start with concealer: this will get rid of dark circles and shadows under your eyes. Always pat never rub concealer into your skin.
2. Apply eye base: this will stop eye make up from getting caught in the creases of your eye. It will also help to keep your make up to look fresh for a long time.
3. Eye shadow: This is where the fun begins. To make your eyes look wonderful use a 3 tone effect like the pros.
a. Initially use a light color from lid to brow bone
b. Secondly use a slightly darker shade on your lid
c. Use the darkest color in the crease of your lid.
d. Blend them well.
4. Apply eyeliner: You can use a darker shade of eye shadow for a beautiful effect. Just wet a brush that is slanted and apply the eye shadow. Put it as close to your eye lash line as you can. For the bottom of your eyes only make the line from the middle to the outer edge, and then smudge it with your finger or a cotton bud.
5. Make your eyes stand out: with highlighter, create a v shaped design from top to bottom of the inner corner of your eye blend in. Use gold or pink for this as white will be too bold.
6. Highlight your brows: You can use the same shade of highlighter to use on your brow bone. Apply from the middle to the outside and blend.
7. Last of all apply your mascara. You can create a warmer look with a brown color instead of black.

These steps do not take long and will make you stand out in the crowd. For added effect if you have long lashes you can curl them.

Always match your eye shadow with your eyes and of course the clothes you are wearing. Remember to blend everything well. Subtlety equals seductive. You can also be part of the trend and give your eyes the “smoky look.” Check out these great article on “smoky eyes”!

Mascara Smudging Under Your Eyes Again?

Like every other woman who has to walk out that door in the morning I wear makeup.
Oh wow like I wouldn’t .. PLESSE..
There are days that no matter what my mascara smudges under my eyes. I am sure there is a secret to not having it happen and I think I figured it out. Bet you're going to ask me what am I doing aren’t you? That’s why I am here..
Ok picture this, I am putting my makeup on like I do every morning, btw I wear my own brand of mineral eye shadows and I am a faithful wearer of Black Magic Mascara and Magic Lash Can’t talk about if I don’t wear it right? So I am putting on my mineral eye shadow when I decided to be a bit different and wear it as well up close on my lower lid under my lashes. But I only decided this after I had already put on my eye shadow.
I use those really neat cotton tip scabs that you get from your local drug store cause they are round and flat on one end on the other end they are pointed. They cost a bit more but I use less. So I was using the round flat end to put on my mineral eye shadow up under my lashes and I ended up rubbing the tips of my lashes on this cotton scab. As I was applying my mineral eye shadow I also removed any wet mascara still on my lower lashes.
I didn’t think anything of it, I left to go out to run packages to the Post Office among other things I needed to do.
I stopped to look over what was new in a store line of makeup when the young lady behind the corner told me my eyes looked great! I stopped and look into the mirror and I be damn my mascara stayed in place all day! Not black under my eyes! Wow I decided to try it again the next day and it works.
The secret to keeping your mascara from smudging is really quite simple, after you apply it to your lower lashes, apply eye shadow under your lashes with a cotton scab and be sure to rub the tips of your lashes on it to get any mascara that might still be wet. It helps set your mascara. BTW Black Magic Mascara is a awesome mascara, because the company says its waterproof and I will tell you it is, I wore it when my mother in law passed away and it stay on my eyes while I was crying.. BUT the cool thing is its not hard on your eyelashes and you can wear it everyday and not have to worry.
