In the season of Fall-2011 a special focus will be on the eyes. The Nude effect remains for the summer. And in the coming season, dramatic and even a little theatrical eye makeup will be fashionable.
In order to achieve artistic eye lining you will need certain skills, or a set of stickers, such as the one recently produced by Dior. It was created by the makeup artists of the brand. As a result of its application, you will have a smooth and rich in color eyeliner which can be adorned with Swarovski crystals if you wish.
A set of Dior stickers includes:
4 pairs of stickers: 2 pure black, one sticker with gray crystals, one sticker with white crystals, and glue.
How to apply shadow stickers:
In general, the use of stickers in makeup is likely to become a usual thing soon. Shadow stickers will probably no longer surprise anyone, as well as stickers for lips makeup. The technologies are different: imitating decals and temporary tattoo. But the idea is clear – to make various styles of makeup the most affordable ones.
The cold eyelashes curling done by the London lash stylists is a forty-minute procedure, which involves several stages, during which the client can relax and take a nap. She is only required to lie with her eyes closed. In the meantime, a light silicone pad, with the help of which the curling is done, is laid over the upper eyelids.
The client can choose one of the three levels of eyelashes curve: the strong curve, when the eyelashes are curled almost from the base, the mid curve (from the middle), or the weak one, when only the tips of your lashes are curled. Almost every separate eyelash is “pasted” on the silicone pad, with the help of a brush and a special eyelashes gel, and kept for 40 minutes. During this time, due to harmless physical and chemical effects, the eyelashes acquire a new, eye-catching curve.
At the end of the procedure, the eyelashes are dyed with an appropriate colour. Then, the gel and the dye are removed, as well as the silicone pads, and – voila! The client receives beautiful curled lashes that provide an attractive look of wide-open eyes. Besides, the effect will last for a long time – up to 6-8 weeks. Moreover, the eyelashes will remain such in the morning, when you wake up next to your beloved man, without makeup, but none the less attractive.
As shown in the clip, you can mascara the curled lashes. In this case you achieve the false-lashes effect in 2-3 sweeps of the brush. You can safely wash your face and apply eye skin cream because neither water nor cream affects the condition of your eyelashes.
The original cold gel Lash Lift curling procedure at the Groom in Selfridges is done by appointment and costs about 45 pounds – slightly more than $ 70.
A highly noteworthy competitor for a more effective eye-laser job is those new “Peacock Eyelashes” that are a decent imitation of peacock feathery with the color flamboyant. In addition they gleam when touched by light and look doubly exotic and glamorous. A little adhesive goes a long way towards sending waves of colorful charm around! Sounds thrilling to try on for a night out. Are you in?
Even if it is written on the package that the product is safe for the eyes, if an eyeliner contains shiny particles, then you should avoid such a product especially if you wear contact lenses. If micro particles of sparkles fall into your eyes and especially under the lens, they will irritate the cornea throughout the day. Just imagine! Therefore, if you want the effect of sparkles, then select the best blinking liner for the eyes.
Of course it is much easier to draw with a round and soft end of the slate pencil, but the blunt end of a pencil means that you are closer to the tree, and it leads to scratching and irritation. In addition to damage to the cornea and eyelid, even the smallest particles of wood can cause allergic reactions.
If you wear contact lenses, here is the procedure for using liners. First lens, and then – eyeliner and shadow. And be sure to first remove the lens in the evening, and then remove the makeup from the eyes!
Apply your usual eyeliner. Take the thin eyeshadow brush or the eyebrows brush. Wet the brush and pick up the eyeshadow. Apply eyeshadow right over the eyeliner line and in the corner of your eyes. Now you have a new luxurious image! If you are brave enough then try this method with light eyeshadow colors. Bright fuchsia or lime colors create really cool looks, especially for exciting and fun parties!
Pick up any color in metallic shade and apply to the inner corner of eyes, close to the nose, and just below the eyebrow line. Eyelid itself can be coated with any color. You can even leave it natural, without the color!
Try applying the eyeshadow in a different way. Apply color not strickly to the moving part of the eyelid. Pick any color and use it to cover the entire surface of the eyelid, up to the eyebrow line. Apply with constant saturation. You will get this year’s hot fall image!
It is easy to diversify your make-up by using three eyeshadow colors at once. You can buy a three-color palette or use your own imagination to mix colors. Apply the lightest color to the entire eyelid (from the eyelashes line to the eyebrow line). Apply the darker color to the moving part of the eyelid, and the darkest color goes to the innermost fold.
This method can be used for work make-up. Apply lighter color under the eyebrow line and inner corners of eyes, and darker color on the moving part of the eyelid.
You can apply your eyeshadow with a dry applicator today. Tomorrow – use the moist one, and the day after tomorrow try applying the same eyeshadow on top of your foundation.
Arrange an eyeshadow-free day. Many women are surprised by how nice the skin on their eyelids looks without color. Its a new image as well!
Generally, the color theme of your makeup should match the color of the frame. You can even pick exactly the same color! Cold colors are more suitable for grey, silver, and deep blue glasses, while warm ones – for golden and beige.
Eyeglasses make particular emphasis on the area around the eyes, so you will need to pay special attention to ”mask” it well. You can use a special corrector or concealer for this.
Ideally, the shape of your eyebrows should match that of the frame or at least they should not contradict each other. Smooth, slightly curved line of eyebrows will match practically any frame. If the frame is very thin and light then you can make special accent on eyebrows by shading them with special powder or pencil. If, on the other hand, the frame is massive and has rich color – it is better not to highlight eyebrows.
You should be careful with mascara, since it easily gets smeared when eyes get tired or watery. Special eye-drops will help you deal with irritation and redness of the eyes, so you should carry those around all the time. You can even try to replace mascara with artificial eyelashes. Those look very natural and some types can be worn for up to four weeks and come in different lengths.
Eyeshadows should not be applied beyond the frame line, otherwise eyeshadows will create a messy look and will break the harmony of your face features. Apply this product only with special brushes, because this way the makeup will look neater.
Those with myopia can use more color for their eyes. Brighter eyeshadows will highlight eyes, which are usually visually reduced in size by the lenses. Pearly eyeshadows look particularly good, different colors can be matched to create gradual transitions. A nice trick is to make lighter accent on middle part of the upper eyelid, this will add volume to your eyes.
It is better to use eyeshadows in soft, matte, conservative colors if you have farsightedness. Those eyeshadows will help you create natural look and reduce the enlarging effect of the ”farsighted” lenses. By lightening the upper corner of the upper eyelid and darkening the inner one you can minimize the impression that eyes are positioned too close to the nose bridge, which is often created by the ”plus” lens.
It is important to remember that frame has to be chosen according to the shape of your face, your hairstyle, and your style in general. This is why makeup should not dominate over the glasses, but instead it should maintain the general image and should not stand out.
Just by using make up you can enhance the shape of your eyes. You can make your eyes look beautiful and sexy with the help of shadows, mascara and eyeliner.
Here are some basic make up tips for different types of eyes.
If you have wide set eyes start at outer corner of eye with medium hue shadow moving upward. Apply shadow color on entire eyelid blending outward. Spread medium-light shadow to brow bone and blend to center of the lid. Put darker color from inner corner to the center of your eyelid, blending into medium shade that you started from the outer corner. The lightest shade should be intense in the center. Apply mascara. Brush lashes straight up.
If you have close set eyes are those which are narrower than one eye width. Put a very thin layer of light eye-shadows from the inner corner of your eyes to the middle of your eyelid. The brush shadows of darker hues from the start of the middle of your eyelid to the outer corner.
Blend the colors in the middle of the lids. Mascara both upper and lower lashes but use more mascara on the outer corners. If you have deep set eyes, select light colors of eye shadows that will help you to make your eyes appear bigger. Apply light eye shadows on the eyelid from the inner corner of your eye slightly upward while brush darker colors on the socket line. Blend the darker shade out.
If you have hooded eyes apply a medium to darker shadow on the crease and hooded area. Go for a lighter shadow on the brow bone and on the inside corner of the eye. Apply heavy black mascara to upper lashes only.
If you have small eyes apply a medium-toned shadow to the crease and lighter shadow on the eyelids. Use a soft-colored liner both on the top and bottom lash lines. Apply black mascara on upper lashes.
If you have prominent eyes then select medium to deep shades of shadow on the lids. Finish with a coat of black mascara on both upper and lower lashes.
If you wear glasses your make-up should depend on the color of the frame. If the frame is bright, you do not have to add color with eye shadows. Give attention to your eyelashes. Select black mascara.
Grip the hairs gently with the curler, count up to thirty, and release. For a more pronounced curl, release the grip and move to a new position two or three times. Another reason this is a good idea is to keep the lashes from brushing against the lenses of your eyeglasses if you wear them. Mascara | |
 | (1) Choose the type of mascara you like best-cream, cake, waterproof, or otherwise. Whatever you choose, get any color as long as it's black. The only exception to this rule is if you have absolutely white brows and lashes; then choose brown. Be sure your eye liner is on perfectly before you start with the mascara. |
(2) With a brush or wand, apply the mascara with upward and outward strokes. Don't use too much or your lashes will become matted. Now lightly pat on loose power or apply lash builder. Then mascara again. (3) If you want to be really dramatic, you can repeat this a couple more times. You'll beastounded at the new "growth" you've produced. Apply mascara in an upward motion starting at the bottom and going up towards your eyebrows. Apply several coats to thicken eyelashes. Apply 1-2 coats to bottom lashes. | |

Sparkling, beautiful eyes are the best assets a woman can have. Do take time to cater to the special care that eyes need regularly.
Eat enough of Vitamin A and C. Take special care in the choice of eye make-up. Don't use make-up that can irritate and harm the eyes. Avoid spending too much time in smoky rooms and don't neglect a check-up on a regular basis
The gel has a delicate and pleasing texture. The roll-on massages, refreshes and hydrates the eye area. You can carry the sticker in your cosmetics bag to use it in the office when needed during the day.
The product is really useful when on-the-go. Garnier roll-on would effectively refresh your tired-looking eyes after a long flight.
According to some product reviews, it doesn’t dry out the eye area, although some say, is doesn’t do much for the dark circle look either. At the same time, some got the results after a couple of days of its use. Others note, it’s not worth the money ($15.95). Anyway, I decided to buy it and to try it out to know it from my own experience. As this seems to be individual if it’s helpful or not. Hope, the new Garnier Roll-on will do more than just an ice piece.
Daily we use mascara and eye shadows, so the top priority in taking care of our eyes should be taken by the removal of makeup. Before bed makeup should be removed from the eyelashes so that the eyes and the eyelashes can rest during the night.
Plant oil or your regular makeup remover can be used to remove makeup. The makeup should be removed with soft movements without strong pressure or stretching force on the skin – the skin around eyes is very sensitive. It is done with spiral movements from the roots to the ends of the eyelashes. Camomile or black tea potions are also good for washing up the face; they cut off insignificant inflammatory processes.
Eyelashes demand attention and care in order to be silky and well-groomed, they have to be brushed every morning and every night with a special brush (mascara brush can be used as well) oiled with warm castor or olive oil, in this way the growth of eyelashes is improved, and they become stronger and softer. Burdock and rose oils also have a universal softening effect on eyelashes and eyelids. When the procedure is done systematically the growth of eyelashes intensifies and they become silky.
To make your eyelashes especially fluffy you can try an old reliable recipe – eye lotion. Make a decoction with the flowers of calendula and cornflower. Pour three tea spoons of each plant with boiling water. Leave the mix for three days, then it is ready to begin applying 15-20 minute compresses. The decoction should be of homeroom temperature. Using only cornflower decoction is also helpful.

The brand’s make-up professionals remind us that the quality of the mascara is the key ingredient in creating the perfect Smokey Eyes.
First of all, you need to choose one of the eye makeup products that will accent your eye color:
Please, also keep in mind the following:
Blue eyes really stand out in earthen and smoky eye shadows. The all-favorite colors for blue eyes are hues of brown. Then may it be dark chocolate, light brown or even beige. Your eyes will look tempting. However if you want to apply a dramatic and smoky appearance, you can apply black eye shadow or even charcoal and pewter. For a simple yet charismatic appeal, you can sport a deep blue eye shadow to compliment your light blue eyes. You are allowed to apply shades of plum, bright berries, silver and even turquoise in addition to the charm.
While choosing an eyeliner for blue eyes, opt for brown, grey or medium blue shaded eye liners. Hues of copper, gold, bronze or even dark purple and deep berry would make your eyes look absolutely gorgeous.
Too much of pink color will make you look like an alien if you have blue eyes with a pinkish skin. You must also avoid hot pinks and fuschias, as they will make you seriously look bad. If your eyes don’t have any blending colors like turquoise, no tings of green, then you must avoid using green eye liners or shadows. These colors will actually make your eyes look extremely dull.
For women with blue eyes and fairer skin tones should try using brown or black mascaras. On the other hand, you can try using black, charcoal gray, deep navy or midnight blue to compliment your eyes.
A woman possessing green or hazel eyes will look absolutely stunning in shades of golden, soft plums and violet berry shades. To give your eyes a true look, you can try using deep browns, ultra dark greens, intense taupe and khakis. For dramatic green eyes, you can make use of light green hues, dazzling limes or even loud purples.
For a gorgeous lady with green or hazel eyes, eye liners with black, deep gold, dark green and even brown would add a lot of glamour to your eyes. Colors like navy, grey or even deep pewter would make your eyes look hot.
Women with green or hazel eyes must certainly avoid hues of neutral brown colors if you have an olive skin tone. A few neutral browns have a yellow base which makes your eyes look flat and brings forth the worst in your skin.
Green or hazel eyed beauties would definitely look attractive in deep forest, black or even brown mascara.
Brown eyes look magnetic in light pinks, sparkling beiges and moist apricot eye shadows. Light champagne is also a shade which highlights brown eyes. To add a more casual look to glamorous brown eyes, you can use shades of copper and bronze, khaki greens and doe browns. You can also add a more fascinating look to them by contrasting with neon blues, hot pink and bright green for a wild look.
Women with the asset of brown eyes should try eye lines in eggplant or deep berry. Your eyes will also look great if beautified with charcoal, black or a grey colored eye liner.
Any shade of dark green, teal or turquoise will be hazardous and turn you into a disaster.
Brown eyes look stunning in black or brown mascaras. You can also compliment your eyes by mixing an eggplant liner with mascara.
Usually black mascaras are a winner when it comes to making any eye color look gorgeous. However, there are various colors of mascaras also available in the market. At some point of time, colored mascaras add a very dramatic look to your eyes or sometimes people looking at you won’t be comfortable either. An additional tip for women over the age of 45 is that they should not experiment using colored mascara as it will highlight their growing age more than their attractiveness.
Before applying your fake eye lashes, you must first complete your eye makeup, like, applying the eye shadow. If you are new to applying fake eye lashes, we would recommend you to work with the full eye lash first and then, once you are skilled at applying these, you can start using individual eye lashes as they require more time and accuracy.
You must first take a look at your eye lash band and think whether it will stay on your eye lid properly or not. You can even trim the band to fit it perfectly on your eye lid.
A few eye lashes posses sticking strips on them itself, while there are quite a few which have a separate adhesive tube. If you have the separate tube, use a pin or a toothpick to apply the adhesive on the eye lash band. After applying the glue, let it stay for a few seconds before putting it on. This will help the fake eye lash stick properly to your eye lids.
When you are about to apply the fake eye lashes, hold the lash band inwards by making it curve as the shape of your eye lid. You can apply your eye lash as close to your natural eye lashes as possible. Please don’t apply the fake eye lashes on your natural ones. If you are making use of individual eye lashes, it is advised to apply them on the outer portion of your eyes first and then come applying them inwards for perfection.
Once you have applied your fake eye lashes, allow the glue to stick in a while. Once your eye lashes are in the perfect place, apply another coat of mascara and an eyeliner to make it look merged with your natural ones.
