bought white eyeshadow( don't ask ) and now i have no idea what to do with it

[urbanD0LL]

any ideas ? even for using it as an eyeliner ... ?
my skin color is NW45 .

 

[amyzon]

it can't be used as a highlight?

 

[urbanD0LL]

doubt it , it's just white . i wouldnt like it as a highlight on me

I have white eyeliner and a white pigment that i really like to use...

i use the white eyeliner when i really want my big eyes to pop, and it makes me look more awake, same with the pigment.

you could use the white e/s in the inner corners of your eyes it will brighten them up...or pair it with another color for a different look. i think the best thing to do is just experiment with it.

How are you uploading it?

You can blend it out with a black or silver e/s and creative a beautiful smokey eye look

MakeupGeek has some cool tutorials using white - the cherry blossoms one and the Kat Von D one.

Dont hate it until you try it. Try the white eyeshadow in the inner corners of your eyes. I saw it first on a MUA at MAC in Toronto, CA and it looked amazing. I bought some and tried it at home and its gorgeous. It makes my small eyes look a little bigger.

i use white shadows on my lid and as a hilight all the time. you just hafta blend it right.

definitely experiment with it

 

[dominichulinda]

use it as a base

 

[ambicion6]

I use it on my lids for a real quick and easy smokey-ish eye. its a good color to use on the lids when you want a more toned down smokey eye (as opposed to covering the whole lower lid in black, i cover it in white, and then use a black e/s in the crease)

white is kinda hard to use just plain like that. i like using it on the inner corners as well. and i dont know about as a highlight but its do-able. i rather highlight with something more like shroom or ricepaper but white is ok just not too much or else its gonna look like look at me!!! Also i like to use my white pencil on my waterline to make my eyes look bigger when i do a dark or smokey look...dark colors will always make ur eyes look smaller so the white helps my eyes get back to looking like a normal size..

This is my suggestion as well! I use Gesso, Forgery and Crystsl Avalanche on the inner part of my eyes and other colors like Blues and greens on the outer half and blend, its really pretty. Just experiment with it until you get a look that u feel comfortable with, just don't rule out any of these ladies suggestions!

I'm wearing Forgery in my avatar pic, try it!

Definitely use it as a base..I use Gesso (a matte white eyeshadow) on top of my paintpot, its makes the colors pop and it makes blending so much easier! I saw Nireyna on Youtube does this as well...also if you look under Kim Kardashian tutorials on Spektra the contest winner (cant remember her name

) uses it on the inner half of her lid for a smokey eye and it looks FAB! In fact, that was my look of the day yesterday!!

 

[bsquared]

use it in your inner corners! that's where i use my crystal avalanche

i think you could do alot with it, you just have to be open and experiment. I rock white eyeshadow all the time.
