How to Apply Eye Shadow on Grey Eyes

Women gifted with striking features such as grey eyes only have to highlight them to draw attention. This is because colored eyes are in themselves such a strong, defining feature in any given face, that they tend to overshadow any other makeup. Should you or your client also be gifted with grey eyes, the quickest and easiest way to look good would be to highlight them.

 

Choosing a complimentary eye shadow

Since grey is often considered a neutral color, almost all color palettes go well with it. However, when it comes to doing eye makeup for grey eyes, there are certain shades that flatter them more than the rest. Makeup experts generally swear by the grey on grey look for such kind of eyes and advise that the best way to give your grey eyes the attention is to use eye shadows in shades of deep brown, black and deep grey.

The inherent darkness of such dark shades works to draw out the white portion in grey eyes, making the eyes appear big and bright. Metallic colors like coppers and bronzes too look lovely on a pair of grey eyes, and so do contrasting colors such as ivory, white and purple. While attempting to do up your grey eyes, ensure that the chosen color palette also compliments both your skin tone and hair color. This is because irrespective of which facial feature you are highlighting, ultimately the makeup you use should come together and go well with your personality and clothing style.

The smoky eye look

A smoky eye look is very easy to achieve and looks particularly flattering on grey eyes. The biggest misconception about such a classic look is that it generally involves using dark and darker shades of a certain color. However, this is only partly true because the key to achieving a great and flattering smoky eyed look lies in seamless and thoughtful layering of complimentary shades of eye shadow, light or dark. Although we’ve covered the Smoky Eye Look in detail earlier, here is a quick routine when doing it on grey eyes.

Makeup experts essentially point out that you need a minimum of three eye shadow colors to create the perfect smoky eye look. These three eye shadow shades can be classified as a highlighter, a medium tone shade and lastly a contouring eye shadow shade. Generally speaking, the highlight color acts as a base and therefore is generally of flesh color, with perhaps a dash of shimmer. The medium tone color, on the other hand, should be a shade or two darker than the skin or highlighter shade and preferably of matte texture.

Start by applying the highlight color to the eyebrow bone till the duct of the eye. Next, you need to apply the medium tone color all the way from your lash line to the crease line of your eye and fuse it seamlessly with the highlighter already applied in the area. Let this application rest for a while. Begin by applying the contour color from the lash line, blending it in short strokes upwards towards the creases of your eyes so that it looks like the same shade of color is shifting from lighter to darker across your eye. Here, you should ideally use your index finger to gently smudge this contour color along your lower eyelashes as well.

To finish a smoky eye look, apply a dark colored black or brown eyeliner and mascara to present the illusion of well-spaced, long and combed lashes. Such a classic smoky eye effect works the best for women who have small, deep-set eyes and grey eyes, as it tends to define their eyes even further. However, there are a few pointers you must keep in mind when trying out the smoky eye look.

Never rub makeup

Always remember that the under eye area is highly sensitive and thin, and any kind of makeup application in this area needs to be done with a soft hand and an even softer brush. Never rub in any makeup in this area, always glide it on or dust it on using a good quality eye makeup brush.

Don’t cake-up your makeup!

Since the under eye area is gentle and thin, it simply cannot take any kind of cakey makeup or too many layers of it. For example, too much eye shadow or hurried layering application of eye shadow in this area is bound to cause your eye shadow to flake or crease, leaving you with a very unflattering look. The best way to avoid something like this happening is to apply makeup in this area softly with feather like strokes.

How to Apply Eye Shadow on Grey Eyes

Here are a few tips to keep in mind when applying eye shadow on grey eyes:

• You can use eye shadow colors that are in a darker variant than your eye color.
• You can use complimentary colors such as deep brown and purple for a dramatic night time look.
• You can use the same eye shadow colors as those for people with blue eyes, but can wear pebble, pearl and bronze as well.
• Dark brown or black eyeliners give the eyes more definition.
• Use black mascara as this will bring out the color of your eyes the best.

The following items from our Makeup Kit will be used:

• 212 Spoolie Brush
• 221 All Over Eye Blender Brush
• 204 Crease Brush
• 219 Precision Crease Brush
• 229 Detailing Brush
• 207 Angle Eye Liner Brush
• 15 Color Eye Shadow Palette- Neutral, Smoky and Theatrical
• Eyeliner pencils
• Gel Eye Liners
• Eyelash curler
• Black mascara

Now let’s start with the practical…


Step 1: Take your 212 Spoolie Brush and comb your client’s eyebrows in an upwards movement, taking it downwards at the sides.

Step 2: Take your 207 Angle Eyeliner Brush and dip it into a light brown eye shadow color and apply it from the beginning of your client’s eyebrows and take it all the way to the end of the eyebrows.

Step 3: Take your 221 All Over Eye Blender Brush and apply a white, beige or champagne eye shadow color all over the eye area. Apply it from underneath your client’s eyebrows and take it downwards almost into her lash line.

Step 4: Take your 204/219 Crease brush and apply a bronze eye shadow in the crease of your client’s eyes. Apply it from the inside corner of her eyes and take it all the way till the end.

Step 5: Wipe your brush with a clean tissue.

Step 6: Take the same brush and apply a dark brown eye shadow at the outer corners of the eye’s crease and only until the middle of the crease. Make a “v” shape while taking this color into the lash line so that it is in line with the darker color of the crease.

Step 7: Take the 204 Crease Brush and do blending so that the 2 colors blend well together.

Step 8: Use your black eyeliner to line the eyes at the top and bottom. Make sure that the edge of the pencil is not too sharp. A good tip is to sharpen the pencil and to push the point/edge, slightly angled, onto your hand so that it is just right for lining the eyes. Use an ear bud to rectify the eyeliner.
Optional: - Wipe your 229 Detailing Brush with a clean tissue.
Optional: - Take this brush and apply black eye shadow over the eyeliner line that you have drawn.

Step 9: Take the eyelash curler and place it underneath your client’s eyelashes while her eyes are open. Gently squeeze the eyelashes for 10 - 20 seconds to give them a curl.

Step 10: Finally, take black mascara and gently wipe it down the inside of the tube. Ask your client to close her eyes and apply the mascara wand exactly where the eyelashes start. Comb the wand upwards and outwards, making zigzag movements. This will prevent the mascara from forming clumps and will also give her eyelashes that desired volume.
