Blending your eyeshadows is without a doubt one of the most important things to learn to do properly. In this video I have put together several different eyeshadow shapes so you have plenty of styles and techniques to choose from. I’ll also show you the best brushes for perfecting any look, as well as how to pair together eye shadows to do a complete look!
Fan Shape - This is also known as “divided in thirds”. The yellow represents the lightest shade, the orange is the medium color, and brown is the darkest. This is the most flattering for every eye shape, especially if your eyes are close together. Having the lighter shade on the inside of the eyes makes them appear farther apart. To do this look, use your flat stiff brush and pat each color on. Make sure to blend between each color so there are no harsh lines.
Snow Globe - his is excellent for anyone with flat eyes because it gives the illusion that they are round. For a more dramatic look use a shimmer in the middle of the eye lid, and a matte shade on the inner and outer part of the eye. It’s best to use the flat stiff brush to apply this, making sure to blend the lines where the colors meet.
Smokey Eye - This look is very popular. To achieve a smokey eye, simply pat a dark color all over the lower lid using a flat, stiff brush. Next, use a soft dome brush with a medium or light color and blend out the crease area to soften the look.
Cat Eye - The Cat eye look can be done with either eyeliner or eyeshadow. Personally, I like to do this with eyeshadow because it gives it a softer appearance. Start with an eyeliner and follow the lower lash line upward towards the outer part of the eye. Pull your eye upwards with this cat eye shape by applying your darkest shadow to the outer corner in a large winged shape. Then, go over the liner with a pencil brush to set and soften the line. Use the pencil brush to bring the color over the top part of the eye as well. This shape elongates the eye making it ideal for people with rounder eyes, as it creates an almond look to the eye.
