Gems: step-by-step makeup technology

Blue, cyan and green shades of shadows and pencils can transform a girl’s eyes, giving them depth and expressiveness. Moreover, these colors make the eyes shine like precious aquamarines, sapphires, emeralds and topazes. To ensure that the upper part of the face attracts all the attention, we suggest choosing a nude lip shade.

Makeup artist Alena Dobrova demonstrates how to create amazing colored eye makeup, what steps you need to take for this and what cosmetics and tools to pay attention to.

Step 1. Apply foundation and perform facial correction.

Step 2. Correct the shape of the eyebrows. We place accents with highlighter.

Step 3. Apply blush to the cheek area.

Step 4. Apply brown-beige shadows to the eyelid area.

Step 5. Draw an eyelash line with a brown pencil and shade it thoroughly.

Step 6. We enhance the outer corner of the eye with color.

Step 7. Draw the mucous membrane with a dark green pencil, slightly shading towards the lower eyelid.

Step 8. Apply golden-green shadows to the inner corner of the eye. We paint the eyelashes.

Step 9. Cover your lips with beige-creamy lipstick. We highlight the nasolabial part with a light corrector to give more volume.
