How To Perfectly Blend Your Eye Shadow:

One part of your eyelid is one color, and other part is a different color, but there’re no discernible lines between them. Such blending can create a striking, misty-like effect to your eye-makeup.

Some expert recommended tips on how to blend eyeshadow rightly are given here.

Create a Good Foundation

Regardless of the number of eyeshadow colors you’re going to use, creating a good, dry base for the eye makeup application is the first step. As powder eyeshadows sit best on an even, dry eyelid, so you will want to prepare your lids with powder foundation. Just smooth a little product over your eyelids and eye area and you are ready to go.
You may also want to cover your lids with a nude-colored cream eyeshadow to make you makeup lasting. First dab on a thin layer and then dust a little translucent powder over it.

Adding the Color

Once your lids ate ready, you can add colors. Always begin with the lighter shade on the bottom and apply it allover your eyelid. Darker shades should always be for the top, it’s always necessary to keep this order as the reverse order is wrong. Apply the darker shade along the fold of your eyelid in a half moon kind of shape and you’re ready for blending.

Basic Blending Tips

  • Always use brush applicators to blend the shadows since brushes don’t absorb or take the colors away from your eyelid as finger or sponge applicator does.
  • Blend in upward direction or downwards, whatever you find easier. The direction of blending does not matter, provided that you concentrate your efforts in the place where it’s exactly needed: between the two colors!
  • Use separate brushes for working with different colors. If you’ve only one brush, make sure to clean it with a tissue-paper between each color.
  • Build your colors little by little. First dab on a little color, and add more if necessary.
