Hi !
I would need some comments and recommendations.
I recently tried different colors and different makeup shapes/techniques to makeup my eyes to try to determine what best suit me.
I can't really be objective and come to a decision on a specific technique, so I told me the best would be to ask other persons' mind.
I feel that there is still something I do wrong but can't determine what.
So please, if you have any piece of advice to give to me, don't hesitate.
And for the color, what seems to look the best on me regarding with my skin and eyes color ?
Here are the tries I made :
First, with greens.
I tried :
*A vertical gradation : the darkest color on the lashline, getting lighter while going to the browbone.
* The crease technique
*An horizontal gradation : from the lightest to the darkest from the inner to the outer corner
Second try with blues :
On the left side I tried to use the crease method taking care to keep the lid "clean" with just light color on it, and the crease color staying above.
On the right side, I tried what I call the "Japanese technique" because I saw it in lots of Japanese beauty magazines; it consists in applying the light/medium shade all over the lid going until above the crease in a wash of color, and then to blend the darkest color close to the lashline.
And to finish, my latest try, with violet/purple colors :
I tried Snowkei's tutorial on the left eye, and again, the "Japanese technique" (as explained here) on the right eye.
And if you're not bored yet with all my pictures, you can see more precisely the eye I made up following Snowkei's tutorial before and after I applied eyeliner and mascara (I felt I would mess up with the eyeliner ^^).
I also darkened the eye with the Japanese technique, you can see the result here and here.
So here I am with all these tries.
Which shape do you think suits me ?
Which color looks best on me ? And how to adapt it for a daytime-shy-neutral makeup ? (I find these tries too much bright on me to go outdoor with that on my eyes ^^)
Can you give me any piece of advice to improve my eyemakeup ?
Thank you for having take the time to read my post and bear all my annoying big pictures (if they are too much big or heavy, tell me it, I can reduce or remove them).
