3 Simple Ways To Wear Eyeshadow For Beginners | How To Apply Eyeshadow!

4 min read

When I really started to get into wearing eyeshadow it was hard for me to figure out the best way for me to wear it. I didn’t want to look crazy, I wanted to do it right and look cute. I didn’t realize there where certain things you could do or certain ways to put on the eyeshadow to make it look the best. So after I learned those things I started to actually create the looks I pictured in my head. Nothing hurts more then trying to bring a look to life and it‘s just not coming out how you wanted. That could be cause you used the wrong products or didn’t use enough. I used to just put eyeshadow on my eye-lid with no pimer or concealer, now I know that applying primer/concealer to my lid will make my eyeshadow last longer and the pigment in the eyeshadow will be brighter. I skipped that one step for years because I felt it wasn’t important but now I can see how much better my eyeshadow looks compared to before.

Before I got to fully covering my eye-lid with eyeshadow I started small, I did looks that made my eyes pop, rather than the eyeshadow was the pop.

The first look I rocked was..

1) The Inner Corner Eyeshadow Look

This look was really my go to, before 2020 hit and changed everyone’s lives, I was working two jobs and three before that! I wanted to wear eyeshadow to work that wasn‘t to much but still had that pop and this way was such a gorgeous way. It drew people into your eyes, and if you put the right color you can make your eyes look like an art piece.

After doing my foundation/base routine, I take a small amount of concealer or primer and place it right in the inner corner of my eye-lid. My go to concealer is La Girl Pro concealer ( Read my full review on their concealer here: https://www.cartersbeautydeals.com/post/template-product-review-4 ) or urban decays primer, get yours here with my affiliate link: https://amzn.to/3vE37UH

After letting that sit for a couple of seconds, I then take whatever color I want from my profusion untied colors palette and apply a good amount gently on top of that concealer/primer. Most of the time I don’t apply a eyeliner but you can and next I add lashes. I also wouldn‘t use setting spray on my eyeshadow but because it’s a small amount and I want it to last I will do a light spray of setting spray from elf.

Here’s a step by step video tutorial:

2) The Eyeshadow Eyeliner Look

Eyeliner already looks so great but add a pop of color and you can change the vibe of that

look. Make it look softer for spring or sexier for Valentine’s Day. I did a simple blue eyeliner look with rhinestones for my Mother’s Day makeup last year. I loved it so much here‘s that look.

I would first start off with that concealer or primer on my whole eyelid. Then after picking my color I will apply the eyeshadow like eyeliner but gently pack it on. Next I’m going to take a small blending brush and brush the top part of the shadow gently. When I’m done with that I’m going to add my eyelashes and clean up the eyeliner line with concealer.

Here‘s a walk through video:

3) The Eyeshadow Under The Eye or on The Water Line Look.

Another one of my favorite simple looks. Adding some color here is also a great way for your eyes to look bigger or smaller. White makes them appear bigger and black makes them appear smaller.

My favorite color to put there is pink. It’s such a soft and sweet looking color and complements my eyes.

If your planning on putting color on the whole bottom lash area then follow these steps. If your just doing the water line, skip to the next paragraph.

Eyeshadow on the whole bottom lid:

Starting with the concealer/primer again, apply that to your bottom lash lid like normal concealer. Next find your color and gently apply that to your bottom lid. Then take an un-used brush and blend the very bottom part of the lid to your liking. If it got messy, take a small amount or setting powder and dust away what needs to be dusted Or take concealer and re-conceal under your eye carefully.

Eyeshadow on the water line:

The best way to do this I would say is with a color eyeliner pencil. You can read my picks in my article, The 2 Best Lip Liners for Beginners here. I’m going to pull my bottom lip down a bit, take the liner and apply gently to my water line. Gentle enough to not hurt myself but hard enough to get the color to show up, and it’s that simple. I love this way because of how quick it is. You don’t need to be a pro to put some color on your water line.

This is a tutorial of my favorite look "eyeshadow on the water line" :

These are 3 simple ways to wear eyeshadow that anyone can use. I hope I helped you figure out the best simple eyeshadow makeup look for you. Even if you don’t feel 100% confident in your makeup skills you can still make it look like you are.
