Should I apply eye shadow first or double eyelid tape first?

Many girls like to use double eyelid stickers when putting on eye makeup. Double eyelid stickers can change the appearance of the eyes, widen the eyelids, and have good beauty and skin care effects. After applying eye shadow and using double eyelid stickers, the double eyelid glue is no longer sticky, or it is very obvious on the eyelids.

Should I apply eye shadow first or double eyelid tape first?

Apply double eyelid tape first and then apply blush. After applying the double eyelid tape, then draw the blush and eye makeup. This will make the makeup look more natural and the marks left by the double eyelid tape will not be so obvious. Whether the double eyelid glue can last long depends on whether the eyelids are comfortable. If the eyelids are very oily, you can add a layer of air cushion foundation after the foundation, then wipe it clean with toilet paper, and then apply it last. You should apply double eyelid tape first and then put on eye makeup. If you are in a hurry and don’t have time to apply eye shadow at night, you can apply double eyelid tape and then put on eye makeup and eyelashes. Since the eye patch is made of frosted material, it can hold even pearlescent eyeshadow. If you draw first and then paste, problems such as warping edges, stiffness, and falling off will occur.

Before applying eye shadow, you can make an inner layer for the eyelids to increase the nourishment of the eye area, avoid the embarrassment of makeup coming off, and improve the color development and usability of blush. Then choose a lighter color and use the larger background color to paint back and forth from left to right. Then choose a favorite color and apply it in the center of the eyelid. You can use a small amount to apply the color slowly there, otherwise you may apply it too heavily. Finally, use the remaining powder to slowly sweep the lower eyelid area, so that the eyes look red and tender! Of course, in terms of makeup, if you want to avoid dirty eye makeup, you need to prepare a perfect eye makeup eyeshadow. Otherwise, blush flying, color cast, and poor performance will become a laughing stock of eye makeup. Generally speaking, superfine powder and eye shadow color developer are more suitable for beginners. When beginners apply blush, remember to shake the powder!

How to apply eyeshadow with double eyelid glue

Step 1: Start applying the double eyelid tape from the corner of the eye. First, pinch the tape with an iron clip and stick the other end to the corner of the eye. Then press the tape at the corner of the eye with your fingers. After the tape is firmly attached, slowly stick the double eyelid tape to the inner corner of the eye.

Note: You must put on the eye patch before applying eye shadow, so that it can stick firmly, and blush can also make the double eyelid glue less obvious.

Step 2: To prevent the eye patch from being too obvious, you can use a soft brush to dip in foundation and lightly press the eyelids to hide the eye patch;

Step 3: After this, you can apply eye makeup, follow the roots of the upper eyelashes and make the corners of the eyes longer;

Step 4: Refine the key points and widen the line at the inner corner of the eye a little bit to make the eyes look longer, bigger and more charming;

Step 5: Apply brown blush to overlap with the eye makeup just done, making the outline less sharp and creating a blurred effect;

Step 6: In order to brighten the inner corner of the eye and make the eyes look more energetic, you can apply beige pearlescent eye shadow on the inner corner of the eye and extend it to the 1/4 of the lower eyelid.

Proper makeup application process

The proper order of makeup: Primer---(conceal blemishes)---Liquid foundation---(conceal blemishes)---Setting powder---Woodpecker---Blush---Eye makeup---Eyeliner---Contouring---Contouring----Eye shadow---Lipstick. The proper skin care sequence is also required before natural makeup. Improper pre-makeup skin care will not achieve the desired effects of skin care products. It will also make the makeup less adherent afterwards. Therefore, it is recommended to complete the moisturizing process before applying makeup. Basic toner, essence, moisturizing cream or moisturizing lotion is indispensable. It would be best if you could apply a hydrating mask before putting on makeup.

What should you pay attention to when you are a beginner in makeup

1. Maintenance before makeup

Putting on makeup is not as simple as just putting makeup on your face. Maintenance before makeup is also very important! Girls who easily get powder floating on their faces must pay attention to moisturizing. If your skin is prone to oiliness, the first step is to use oil-control and moisturizing products. But remember to wait until the skin care products are fully absorbed before you can start the makeup process, otherwise it will all be in vain!

2. Foundation

The most important thing about overall makeup is the foundation! When choosing a foundation, you must make sure it suits your skin color. Although everyone wants to be a fair-skinned beauty, if there is a color cast on the face and neck, it will give people a mask-like feeling.

(X) If you squeeze a lot of foundation onto the brush and apply makeup immediately, it is easy to have thick powder, floating powder, and oily appearance. Many girls will apply foundation on the tip of their nose first due to skin pore problems, which will cause pores and makeup to come off, and the eyelids will also have lines due to excessive foundation.

(O) Apply foundation in small amounts and multiple times, working from bottom to top and from outside to inside. Using a makeup egg can make the foundation more lightweight. As long as you pat the remaining foundation on both sides of the nose, you can achieve the perfect concealing effect.

3. Cover up

Today's foundation often has a certain degree of decorativeness. In this process, as long as the most important flaws are covered and the skin shows its original layering, it can actually avoid the situation where most girls have too thick foundation and it doesn't last long!

(X) Avoid using your hands to "spread" the concealer, as it will make the amount difficult to control and it will also easily become uneven and clumpy. The foundation that has just been applied will also be rejected when it is evenly applied to cover blemishes.

(O) Apply a small amount to the concealer brush and apply lightly with a fibrous motion. If you don’t have a brush, use your fingertips to dot and pat the concealer.

4. Apply makeup

After applying concealer, don’t forget to use a loose brush to apply air cushion foundation, which can improve the lasting effect of the foundation. Apply a large amount of air cushion foundation under the eyes, and then deal with the blush powder falling off, which will make the makeup clean and easy to remove. If you wipe it with facial tissue, in addition to causing marks, the foundation will be rejected again. In addition, even if it is a transparent air cushion foundation, you don’t need to apply too much, just swipe it evenly and it will be perfect!

5. Eyebrows

No matter what kind of eyebrow shape you choose, the most important thing is the outline and hair flow. A good eyebrow shape can not only decorate the contour of the face, but also give people a different makeup feeling. Whether it is the European and American neat style or the Korean style flat brows, it is not difficult if the technique is correct!

(X) The outline from the tip to the end of the eyebrow is too heavy, in order to frame the eyebrow shape and fill the gap, but the gradient of the eyebrow is lost, and finally it becomes a seaweed eyebrow.

(O) The technique must be light. The tip of the eyebrow can be drawn upwards to create a false hair flow, which looks more energetic. The easiest way to create a gradient is to use your hands to lightly rub the ends of your eyebrows after applying your eyebrows, which will make them look more natural.

6. Blush

Blush is not as simple as just putting the color on the eyelids! The technique, color, and brushes used greatly affect the appearance of the makeup. The eyes will also release different flavors at this step because of the way the eye shadow is applied.

(X) If the amount of blush applied and the size of the brush are not properly controlled, it will cause spots when applying blush, and the boundary between the blush and the eyelids will not be smooth, resulting in an overall uneven coloring. Or maybe you draw too big eyebrows to highlight the eye makeup, which makes the eyes look smaller visually.

(O) If you only apply pure blush, you can use a loose brush to apply color in a circular motion. In addition, for different areas of the eye makeup, choose a brush of appropriate size to create deep eye makeup. The part of the eye that is suitable for the lower eyelid is to be applied with a small brush, starting from the inner corner of the eye and gently moving to the intersection of the eye and the lower blush to blend.

7. Eye Makeup

In addition to blush, eye makeup is also a top priority. Different eye makeup can create different eye shapes. Whether it is a pitiful puppy eye or a sexy and charming cat eye, eye makeup can be used to shape it!

(X) Holding the liquid eyeliner pen upright will cause your hand to have no support, which will make the line less neat. In order to make the frame smooth, you may accidentally make the eye makeup thicker, and your eyes will appear smaller due to the pressure of the frame.

(O) You can hold the eyeliner at an angle and draw along the shape of your eyes. It is recommended to add eyeliner to draw the eye corners first. The most common way is to fill the triangle at the end of the eye, and then you can do the basic eye makeup!

8. Eyelashes

Everyone's eyelashes are different in length, so the eyelash curling method required will also be different. Short eyelashes are suitable for the one-stage curling method in the same position, while long eyelashes can be curled using the three-stage curling method. As long as different methods are used according to the length of the eyelashes, you can also curl your eyelashes into long and curly shapes.

It is recommended to apply eyeliner upwards from the horizontal plane. Remember to scrape off the unnecessary eyeliner before applying it on the eyelashes, so that the eyelashes can be clearly visible. The Z-shaped brushing method is more picky about the size of the eyelashes themselves and the amount of fiber in the paste. If the operation is not done well, the eyelashes will be exposed!

9. Highlight

Skin golden yellow is the most suitable highlight color for yellow people. It is recommended to lightly apply it on the scapula to brighten and create the effect of apple muscles. If you accidentally apply too much, it will highlight the texture and flaws of the skin, so you need to be very careful about the amount used. High-shine High Ligther should not be used on the T-zone, as it will be mistaken for being shiny. If you want to highlight the T-zone, just use a slightly matte product.

10. Contouring

The last step is contouring! If you have never tried contouring before, be sure to practice with a lighter color first, use a loose brush, and be gentle. The first deep color must be evenly blended from the inside to the sides, blending the line connecting the jaw and the middle of the face, and the center line of the side of the face. A one-time touch-up powder is enough for girls to complete one side of the face contouring. Too many colors and lines will make the overall look unnatural.
