Creating a beautiful eyeshadow look does not have to be complicated! With just four colors you can create a balanced and versatile look that can be both natural and striking. Follow these simple steps to effortlessly take your eye makeup to the next level.
Our handy filter makes it even easier. You can scroll between light, medium and dark colors and select different finishes. This way you choose one from each category color and create your ideal eye look in no time!
Step 1: Light color On the front part (Plane 1)
- Placement: The front part of your moving eyelid, close to the inner corner of the eye.
- Color choice: Choose a light color (matte, satin, metallic or glitter). For a quiet look, keep this color soft if you want to use glitter on another surface. Use our filter to find a soft champagne color or a light pastel shade.
Step 2: Medium color Above the iris (Plane 2)
- Placement: The middle part of your moving eyelid, directly above your iris.
- Color Selection: Use a medium shade that brightens your eyelid. This is the highest point, so a glitter or metallic finish can really make your look "pop." Scroll down the filter to medium colors such as a warm copper color or a soft mauve.
Step 3: Dark color in the outer corner (Plane 3)
- Placement: The outer corner of the eye, applied in a V- or C-shape.
- Color choice: Choose the darkest shade from your palette to create depth and definition. Blend the color gently forward for a seamless transition. Use the filter to select deep shades such as dark brown or dark purple.
Step 4: Matte color in the arcade arch
- Placement: The crease just below the brow bone.
- Color Selection: Use a matte medium color to cover all colors blend together. Blend with a soft brush in back-and-forth motions for a smooth transition. Try a taupe or terracotta hue found through the filter at matte finishes.
