As we know that many of you do not know how to do it, we want to give you six tips for applying makeup to your eyes according to the occasion. Don’t miss them!

1. A desirable look thanks to the cat eye

Cat eye makeup, better known as “cat eye”, is still the number one eye makeup trend .

This is a daring and sensual technique that is often used for special occasions, especially in the evening.

We draw it with neutral tones but we make it stand out with a lot of mascara on the lashes and showy shadows of silver or gold color.

However, care should be taken when drawing the line not to widen it too much, as too much pencil can make makeup look ordinary and vulgar.

What should you do ?

• Draw the entire eye contour with black eyeliner and, little by little, enlarge the line until you get a drawing close to the one in the photo.
• Then draw a prominent tip outward and fill it with a solid black.

2. Color eyeliner

The colored eyeliner has a youthful and fresh effect, ideal for enlarging the eyes.

It is used with a dark base and with a color on the top that stands out.

Unlike the previous make-up, we only draw the upper part of the eye, ending in a point outwards.

What should you do ?

• Start by making a line in a dark tone, just above the roots of the lashes.
• Then, following the same line, add some color.

3. Total outline

Full contour makeup has characteristics similar to cat’s eye, but the idea is to draw it more discreetly.

In this case it can be used both day and night, because it helps to have a deep and mysterious look without going overboard.

As the ideal is that it goes unnoticed, it should not be combined with shadows or too much mascara on the eyelashes.

What should you do ?

• Draw a thin line around the eye area, but don’t make the tip too upward or prominent.
• Avoid this style if you have too small eyes or slanted eyes because, instead of making them stand out, they will be more opaque and dark.

4. A double line for a desirable look

The double stroke is a very sensual style that you can use in the evening. It requires a bit more technique, but you can try your hand at it until it’s perfect.

The lines are drawn as much on the upper eyelid as on the lower eyelid, but they must not meet.

To give a more elegant touch, we can fill the space with a pearly shadow.

What should you do ?

• Draw a thin line on the upper eyelid, ending with a point upwards.
• Then, draw the line on the lower eyelid, so that it is blurred so as not to stand out too much.

5. A desirable look with a fine line

With this type of line you will have an elegant and discreet look . It is perfect for a day at work, or for leisure activities in the country or at the beach.

For the eyes to be more expressive you should focus the makeup on the mascara on the eyelashes.

What should you do ?

• Start by applying a soft base on the eyelids and then draw a subtle black line.
• Slightly widen the line on the outer part of the eye and that’s it!

6. A Greek trait for a desirable look

Women with small eyes and slanted eyes can achieve a sophisticated and bright look with the Greek stroke.

It allows the eyes to appear larger and rounded, making the look stand out.

It can be worn both day and night, combining it with white shadows or various colors.

What should you do ?

• The lines are drawn over almost the entire outline of the eye, but only half are drawn on the lower part of the eye.
• The ideal is to make it stand out with mascara on the lashes and some shiny shadows.
