Femalefirst.co.uk shares simple tips on how to apply glitter eyeshadow:

  • The first part is picking your glitter. There are multiple shades for you to choose from. Pick the ones that last for long.
  • Use an eyeshadow primer to prep the eyes and make sure any make-up doesn't crease.
  • If you're using a bit of glitter to brighten a smokey eye, start with the base colours first and apply your glitter last, and don't go overboard with it.
  • Use a cream eyeshadow underneath a glitter too. This will prevent the glitter from spreading all over your face. (Read: Cat-eye make-up back in vogue)

Many prefer going for the tried-and-tested smokey eyes look. But getting it right is the tricky part. Here are some tips:

  • First, apply a thin coat of eye primer. It helps to make eye make-up last longer. Start from the eyelids all the way up under your eyebrow.
  • Choose the lightest shade of eyeshadow and apply it evenly on your eyelids.
  • Then move onto a darker shade. Work at the top of your lid by using your finger to blend it evenly.
  • Next, apply a dark eyeliner for the top lids. Blend it into the bottom lids for a smoky look.
  • Finish the look by applying a eyelash volumising mascara. You could also curl your lashes if you wish. (Read: Make-up tips to look party-perfect!)
