Hazy Peacock: Elongated Blue-Green Smoky Eye Pictorial [On a Budget!]
Applying a black base below shimmer shadows is a perfect way to add some depth, intensity, and staying power to an eye look.
What you’ll need is a very soft smudgy pencil, cream shadow or gel liner, and to make sure that you blend out the black so there are no hard lines or edges.
Top Recommendation for Building your Eyeshadow Collection:
Regardless of your budget and whether you are interested in exploring colors or you’re a makeup artist building your first kit, I highly highly recommend starting with something like the Shadow Pots from Coastal Scents.
I own lots of Chanels and Diors and all the premium houses but I won’t ever hesitate to say I started out playing with Coastal Scents shadows and I still love them today.
They’re some of the best value products around - each MAC sized shadow pot is US$2 each, and they are mostly very smooth and pigmented, and come in hundreds of shades. If you’re not sure about trying green or metallic red, get a shadow pot instead of splashing out for something more expensive. If you don’t like it - hey, it was only $2.
