A Beginner’s Guide to Basic Eye Makeup Products and Tools

Eyes are the most distinguished features in most people, makeup in the eyes brings out definition impressively and draws immediate attention. Eye makeup has the potential to augment your makeup game altogether just as it can wreck everything if gone wrong. If you are a beginner and the idea of eye makeup seems a bit intimidating to you or if you have not mustered up the courage yet, make an attempt at experimenting to find what works best for you. With the right tools and palettes, anybody can master the art. Here are some basic eye makeup products and tools that might help you get started and let you explore your way up.

Eye Primer

A primer is a preparatory product you apply before you begin with your actual makeup. An eye primer ensures your makeup stays put for a good while. After you put on a primer, your skin gets smooth, matte, and ready for your makeup to sit. You cannot skip eye primer if you have oily skin as makeup can get cakey and smudge off very easily.

Eye Makeup Brushes

One will need a minimum of two brushes, a blending brush to blend colors and to contour and a flat brush, preferably a small flat brush as for its ease of use for applying the products. A smudging brush can be of good use if you want to ace that smoky eye look. Beginners do great with a good number of brushes though some professional artists don’t use any at all.

Eyeshadows

Eyeshadows can be any color of your choice, there could be multiple colors from the palette too. Eyeshadows accentuate the eyelids and appear salient in any makeup look. Contouring with a darker shade along the crease works great for a pair of flat eyes whereas if you have hooded eyes, a lighter shade would look splendid. You can begin contouring with the basic nude shades, to get started.

Eyeliner

When applied to the lash line and waterline of the eyes, an eyeliner defines the eyes like nothing else. Like eyeshadows, you can experiment with eyeliner colors too. Eyeliner isn’t necessarily for the lash line and water line, feel free to explore and rim other parts like the tear duct to the brow bone.

Mascara

Mascara is for enhancing eyelashes and making them look longer and more appealing. Like other makeup products, mascaras come in a vibrant palette of shades that you can choose from. You can get them from sites like Shopify.

Eyelash Curlers and Eyelash Extensions

Lash extensions are products for people who choose to wear them over their natural lashes. If you want to use a curler to curl your eyelashes, try on an eyelash curler. It adds length and volume to your eyelashes in a jiffy. If you are using mascara and curling your lashes, curl them first before applying mascara to avoid hurting your eyelashes or product sticking to the curler.
