How to do a simple eye look/The basics of eye makeup:


To do any eye look, it’s important to have the right tools and to know your eye shape. Once you have these things figured out, creating any eye look will be super simple.


What do you need?




There are three main brushes that are essential for any eye look. These are:


Flat brush: This type of brush is, like the name says, flat. This helps for packing color onto your eyelid. Grab your eyelid color with this brush and gently pad it onto the lid. This brush can also be used for highlighting the inner corners of the eye and the brow bone.



Crease brush: This type of brush has longer bristles that usually loose. The shape of this brush helps the bristles get into the crease of your eye and distribute and blend the eyeshadow seamlessly. Simply grab a darker colored eyeshadow and place this on the crease of your eye using window-wiper motions. Blend out the edges of the eyeshadow for a perfect eye look.



Definer brush: This brush is smaller and the bristles are more dense. This brush is ideal for applying eyeshadow on the lower lash line of your eye and on the outer-corner. Grab the darkest color and run this on the outer-v of your eye and also run it on the lower lash line. Make sure to blend it with a crease brush to diminish any harsh lines.
