The standard and time-tested makeup scheme with shadows consists of several step-by-step actions.
Skin cleansing
The skin, cleared of the remnants of cosmetics before going to bed, undergoes regeneration processes overnight. For oily skinned women, lotions or suitable cleansing milk can be used to help restore skin to look good before applying makeup. For owners of dry skin, you can use products made on the basis of cosmetic oils, which will protect it from flaking and make it elastic.

Using a base under the shadow
In order for dry or liquid shadows to last for a long time on the eyelids and remain unchanged, throughout the whole working day or a prolonged evening event, you must use a base or primer before applying makeup. It is especially important to use a base that ensures the durability of the appearance, for women with oily skin type, as well as on hot summer days, when the paint can suffer from moist pore secretions. In the beauty department, you can always find an inexpensive primer that will reliably keep the eyeshadow in place. To enhance the light or dark tone of the eyeshadow, you can use a base of the corresponding color or a cosmetic pencil. Experiments with concealer, which some professionals successfully use as a base under the shadow, show themselves well.
You can apply a base coat to your eyelids with a special flat brush or your finger. It is important to learn how to do this evenly, without thickening and smudges.

Applying a base tone
To put on makeup yourself and look no worse than after visiting a beauty salon, you need to listen to professional recommendations and choose the most neutral base shade from the whole variety of colors on the palette. It should become the basis on which all makeup around the eyes is built. Moreover, this rule works not only for complex evening options, but also for creating an everyday look.
Girls with fair young skin are more suitable for delicate, pastel colors and a general light style in the use of decorative cosmetics. For women with the appearance of fine wrinkles under the eyes, it is not recommended to use shadows with a shimmery texture and glitter, as they make age-related skin changes deeper and more noticeable. Dark shadows add sharpness and drama to any look.

Ideas with shadows of different colors
The most common way of applying shadows for many busy women is a simple technique of lightening the convex part of the eyelid with a light shade, and the cavity next to the temporal region is covered with a dark color. This technique makes the eyes more noticeable, and the look - expressive.
For everyday business life, two tones are enough, and for evening make-up, more colors can be included.

- Using the classical method, shadows are applied in stages, since this is not the easiest option. First, a base is made of foundation, powder or beige eyeshadows, slightly shading the main skin tone. The first coat should be thick enough to create a dense layer between the leather and the decorative eyeshadow. This removes the natural shine of oily skin and absorbs excess moisture.
- The application should be started from the depression above the upper eyelid. To do this, you need to cover your eyes a little so that the hollow remains accessible for high-quality shading of the shadows. Then the shadows are shaded along the entire length of the eyelid, which creates the impression of an airy haze enveloping the eye.
- The next step is to apply a light highlight on the middle area of the eyelid, which can be pearlescent, with a silvery, shimmering effect or a contrasting version of the base color, 2-3 tones softer.
- The corner of the junction of the upper and lower eyelids at the bridge of the nose is often highlighted with white strokes, which gives the eyes a radiant and expressive look.To get the greatest effect, a fashionable highlighter is often used for this purpose lately.

- To obtain a harmonious look, in the style of the Greek goddesses, the shadows are shaded in a certain way, making the eyes classically correct. To do this, the overhanging eyelid is corrected by stretching a dark tone to the upper part of the cavity, which makes it less noticeable. Then the borders of the different colors are softened slightly with a brush to create soft transitions.
The almond-shaped incision is softened by stretching in a dark tone towards the temporal part.

- The smokey eyes style is suitable for almost all girls with fair skin and is a versatile safe make-up option. It is made on the basis of a darker base with a peach stripe widely applied along the entire length of the upper eyelid. At the same time, a darkened area remains in the fold above the eyes, creating a neat relief. Then, a dark accent is created on the outer corners of the eyelids, using options with burgundy, gray or blue shadows.
The main technique for obtaining a smoky impression is to carefully feather the borders of different colors, so that they smoothly blend into each other. In the middle corners of the eyes, dots are set with white shadows.

- Harmonious makeup that enhances a woman's natural beauty can be favorably combined with her eye color. To do this, you need to choose the right gamut of colors in order to use the most advantageous of all the variety available on the palettes.
The darkest, hazel eyes go well with blues, lilacs, warm browns and purples. The lighter version of brown eyes is in good harmony with orange, emerald or pink. A light blue look will accentuate your makeup with yellow, silver, turquoise and blue eyeshadow hues. Mysterious and rare green eyes can make golden, warm pearlescent or pinkish tones more expressive.

How to paint eyes of different shapes?
The accentuated natural beauty looks beautiful and natural, which women skillfully use to create an individual and stylish look.

Round
The wide-open eyes of a round shape are close to the ideal geometric circle. They have rounded corners in the outer and inner regions of the eye socket. With this shape, they use a certain method of applying shadows, which begins with a pencil of the upper eyelashes with a solid black line, which allows you to visually narrow the universal roundness. Once you have chosen an eyeshadow color that suits your eyes and skin, you can start narrowing the circle with the eyeshadow. First, you need to designate the entire contour with a dark tone, and apply a much lighter shade on the upper, movable part of the eyelid.
The outer corners will become more elongated if you extend their corner with the richest color.

With an impending century
Too heavy the upper part of the eye due to overhanging eyelids does not make the look easy. There are cases when the top layer of skin can completely hide the movable part of the eyelid if the eyes are completely open. To somewhat reduce the appearance of the overhanging eyelid, it is necessary to apply shadows of the selected color to the entire movable upper part, and then shade it up with a brush.
A thick pencil liner under the lashes of the upper eyelid will highlight it, and even more noticeable will make the filling with matte shadows in the middle convex part.

With monovek
The shape of the eye socket, in which the hollow between the brow arch and the upper eyelid is practically invisible, is most often found in representatives of Asian peoples. The crease from the top of the eyelid extends directly from the inner corner of the eye. Experiments with make-up on mono-eyewear show that the brightest shadows, with the inclusion of shimmery, as well as reflective effects in the corner of the eyes near the bridge of the nose, help to solve the problem.
Such techniques allow you to hide natural data, especially when a multidimensional version of makeup is applied.

Almond-shaped
The almond-shaped eyes are horizontally elongated and elongated. In this case, the eyelid is stretched, and the corners are narrowed to the junction of the upper and lower parts. If you want to emphasize a beautiful natural shape, you need to paint up the middle, mobile area with a light tone, and emphasize the outer edges with a darker color.
To soften the stretch of the eye, you can use the Smokey make-up option, with the introduction of bright tones of gold or red into it.

Raised outer corners
Women's faces look interesting and unusual when the outer corners of the eyes are raised above the horizontal line passing through their center. This unique cut of the eyes is worth emphasizing with arrows of dark shadows stretched along the entire length and extending beyond the outer corners of the upper eyelids.
For a balanced look, shadows are applied to both sides of the eyelids, lower and upper, allowing for slight adjustments in proportion.

Beautiful examples
To easily make the best makeup options with shadows, there is no other way but a lot of experiments, because each face is a work of nature, in the most unique combinations of features. In addition to the already selected and proven methods of applying tone around the eyes, it is necessary to periodically try new palettes, opening previously unknown possibilities.
