Mascara is probably the most commonly used item when it comes to eye cosmetics. It is easily accessible, simple to use and it comes in black, so you don’t have to worry about which shade will suit you best. Mascara as eye make up also looks great, at least when applied properly. The key thing to remember is not to smudge it. Mascara should be applied evenly without smudges. Only then will it highlight the eyes, otherwise it will just end up looking like you got a black eye in a fight. The method of application is important, but so is the hardware. Make sure you use a fine brush with all the bristles in line. This will ensure an even, smooth application.

Eye make up has to be applied carefully in slow, unhurried movements. Be patient, haste will lead to an incomplete and messy looking job. Hold the mascara wand or brush close to the base of the eyelashes and sweep upwards. Cover the entire length of the eyelashes. Wiggle the wand a little. And when you are done, clean or wash the wand. This will ensure that it stays in proper working condition. But mascara isn’t the only eye make up there is, you can also try shades of colors around the eyes. It is important first to be sure about the shape of your eyes. Are your eyes round, slender or almond shaped?

Different shades suit different eye colors best. You also have to take your skin color into account when applying make up. Here’s a useful tip: If you are not sure what eye-liner shade to buy, why not first go get your eye make up done in a salon first? There, you don’t actually have to buy the eyeliner or any of the make up. You can just take the help of the beautician and try on several shades, colors and styles. If you find one that you feel suits you the best remember that and note the brand and shade. Then for self-use, you can go out and buy it.
