How to do Evening Make up


So, you are going to a dazzling party tonight, yes, or just as fascinating event. But you are worried because

you are not good at doing evening make-up, worry not, just follow the quick tips given below.
1. Selecting the Base:

Your base will carry the major part of your look. So, it is extremely important to choose the right base.

According to your complexion choose the concealer and foundation. After applying the concealer, mix bronze

loose powder or amber loose powder in the ratio of 3:1 with the liquid foundation to get that glam, shiny look.

You can include more bronzer if you want to add more amount of glitter to your look. You can experiment

with the base in whichever preferred way since it is party time!
2. Doing the eyes:

After your base is ready, depending upon your skin color choose your eye shadows. If you have a lighter skin

tone then you can experiment with the wild shades of pastels, browns, pinks and even blacks. Metallic

shades of these colors will look awesome. Darker skinned ones can experiment with silver, gold and lighter

metallic shades.
3. Technique of Application:

Apply a lighter shade to the inner part of the eyelid and use a darker one on the outside. Lighter skinned

ones, can apply black eyeliner on the upper eyelids and on the corner of the lower eyelids; extend the

eyeliner outside the border of the eye. You can refer the sixties or seventies look. If your eyes are small then

you can apply broad eyeliner on the lower lids as well. Darker skinned ones can use a thin line of black

eyeliner on the upper lid and use a silver eye liner on the lower lid to create drama. Use brown eye pencils on

your brows and then apply bronzer to them by following pattern of your brows. This will make them look

natural yet full of glamour. You can put thick, curly eyelashes and use silver, blue mascaras for an

electrifying look. Otherwise, you can use thicker fuller eye lashes with the mascara suiting your hair colour.

You can use black mascara if you are having dark hair; brown mascara if you are having brown or blonde hair.
4. Lucky Lips:

Use lipsticks with glitter. Darker shades with lots of glitter compliment the lighter skin tones while lighter

shades having bronze or copper glitters compliment the darker skin tones. Don�t forget to border your

lipstick with darker lip liners. You can also apply a glittery lip gloss if you don�t have a glittery lipstick.

However, follow the guidelines given above.
5. Cheek Look:

Most glamour is added by your base, so no need of more glamour on cheeks. However, if you have used a

light base then you can apply some dark bronzer on your cheeks. Use a lighter metallic blush on your cheeks

and underneath your eyes for that perfect glamorous looks. You can refer Beyonce or Naomi Campbell to get

a better idea.
