Eye Makeup for Green Eyes

Green eyes are not as common as brown eyes or even blue eyes. Therefore, if you have green eyes, then chances are you will want them noticed. This can be easily done just by choosing the right makeup and clothing.

In this article I would like to give you some pointers on how to highlight green eyes just by using the right makeup colors.

I will not discus proper methods of application but just color choice and combinations,  for application you can find great tips on  eye makeup here and also more tips on eye makeup for green eyes and other eye colors too.

 Eye liner colors for green eyes.

For intensifying green eyes use shades of plum and violet eyeliner. These colors are the opposites to green on the color wheel and so will create a sharp contrast that will make green eyes stand out.

For eyeliners avoid the traditional black go for a natural brown. For a more dramatic look try plum or green eyeliners.

 Eye makeup colors for green eyes

Green eyes have great potential. Picking the right makeup colors to complement them will allow you to make the best of them.

For eyeshadow pick shades of colors that are complementary to green, brown, gold, plum, greens.

 Shades of green eyeshadow will make your eye color pop while plum and purple hues will deliver a dramatic effect.

 For mascara try dark brown which will brighten up and open up green eyes.

Natural brown will not draw attention from green eyes.

Keep the rest of your makeup minimal so as not to draw attention away from your eyes. So go for neutral blush and lipsticks.

But, how you can find the time to apply your makeup, cook breakfast, send your husband off to work, get the kids off to school and drop some off at daycare. This is not an easy feat for most women. But, I believe this makeup application tip will aid you in getting yourself ready and still be able to handle what ever is on your plate for the day.

First, a beauty makeup tip would be to purchase these items, a good moisturizer, and an easy to apply foundation, eye shadow, eye concealer, blush, and mascara. That’s it. Do not go over board on your beauty routine during the times you have to rush off to work.

Now, for the quick makeup application tip. First, if you can do without foundation, skip it. Do not forget the moisturizer; your skin needs the extra moisture. If you cannot do without the foundation, the quickest way to apply the foundation is to dot your forehead, chin, nose and cheeks. Now, with a sponge or a tad damp cloth smooth the foundation until it is blended completely on your face. Pay close to attention to your hairline, chin and jaw line. Applying the foundation will take the longest. Always remember to smooth upward, when you rub downward, you are only helping those wrinkles find their way.

The next of our perfect makeup tips is to use only one color eye shadow. You are not trying to win a beauty contest or become the next diva. Remember you desire to look your best in the shortest amount of time. The best eye makeup tip is to check and see if you have dark circles, they do appear from time to time and then you must apply an eye concealer, if not skip this step. Only use it when you have to, this will save you plenty of time and could be the best beauty makeup tip of all for those of us in a hurry.

Next, for your eye makeup tip, apply a small amount of eye shadow on the eyelid only, use the eye shadow as an eyeliner, and run the applicator under your bottom eyelashes. Add just a bit of mascara to your eyelashes. There the eyes are finished.

The next beauty makeup tip is to apply just a bit of blush on your cheekbones and brush toward your ears. Apply a tad of lipstick and you are out the door and ready for anything.

If you use these perfect makeup tips every day when you are in a hurry you should be able to completely apply all the makeup in about 5 minutes. Now that is one great beauty makeup tip that every women on the go will be happy to know about.

Makeup Base

In order to have a flawless makeups, you need to make a flawless skin. If you don’t have major skin problems, go for a tinted moisturizer and finish with some translucent powder to get a matte finish.

To hide your flaws, use concealer to vanish dark circles, a proper foundation that matches your skin type and a powder to finish it. Opt for waterproof powder foundations, or mineral ones to make it long lasting.

Eyes Makeup

When choosing your eyes makeup, you should be prepared for the environment you are going to spend your night. Going for a lighter and fresh look is always a better option, but if you like the smoky dark eyes, you can make it look great for a longer time to.
The secret is, to use a primer. It will make the look stay perfectly on and it will add hue to your eye shadows.

Waterproof mascara will also be a must have, but keep in mind that using waterproof makeup will damage your skin, in this case your lashes, more than many other products. So try to go for waterproof only if you really need it. When removing your makeup, make it smoother than usually and have patience. Waterproof makeup will be harder to remove, and you can easily damage your skin if you don’t do it with care.

Lips

Remember that your lips should be natural in case you have hard eye makeup, to avoid overdoing your face. If you opt for a natural look, go for a tinted moisturizer, which will keep your lips soft, smooth shaded and kissable.

If you go for strong lips, keep your eye makeup as simple as possible. To make your look smooth, scrub your lips first, to remove all the dead cells, hydrate and keep your lips soft. Than make your lipstick long lasting, by using the lip pencil not only for the contour, but as a base for the entire lips. Apply the lipstick and enjoy your sexy lips.

Remember than a good makeup is the key to a long lasting perfect look, but to maintain it, there are a few extra things you have to pay attention to. Avoid foods that makes you sweat, avoid touching your face all the time, use blotting paper in case you have oily skin, and if still necessary, do touch-ups. Not even the most professional long lasting makeup will last forever.
