Eye ShadowWe know the old adage, that the eyes are the windows of the soul. The eyes are the first feature that a person notices on another person's face. A person can tell a great many things just by looking at a person's eyes, things like age, mood and disposition.

Even the simplest and barest of makeup can look smashingly beautiful if the eye makeup is correctly applied.

Eye shadow. The purpose
of wearing eye shadow is to add definition to the eyes. With the correct use of eye shadow, the eyes can open up and have depth in them.

There are different ways of applying eye shadow, depending on the shape of your eye.
eye shape
Small eyes. Women with small eyes should go easy on the eye shadow, as too much will make the eyes appear even smaller. To make the eyes appear larger, keep the color on the eyelid itself light but put a darker shade on the crease of the eyelid. Then, highlight under the brow.

Large eyes. A woman with large eyes would want to wear dark colors on the eyelid, including the crease. The highlight should be a flat color under the brow.

Deep-set eyes. The outer corners of deep-set eyes should be given emphasis. Light colors should be applied on the eyelid and under the brow, while a medium color on the crease would finish off the look.

Wide-set eyes. Women with wide-set eyes should also use light colors on the eyelid and under the brow and a medium color on the crease. A darker color, however, should be applied to the inner corners of the eye.

Hooded eyes. To make the hooded eyes seem less heavy, light colors can be used on the lid, blended with a darker shade from the center of the eyelid to the outer corners.

Round eyes. Women with round eyes can benefit from using one shade all over the eyelid and making it extend to the outer corners. It will make the eyes appear longer.

Oriental eyes. To open the Oriental eyes, light shadow on the inner half of the lid, a darker shade on the outer half, and a highlighter under the brow will do the trick.

Regardless of the shape of your eyes, avoid very dark shades if you have very light skin. Take it easy with the shimmer because they can highlight the imperfections of the skin that should be hidden. Also, the skin of the eyelids is very thin and delicate, so try not to pull on them too much.
