Applying glitter eye shadow to your gorgeous peepers is a simple and amazing way to get an alluring, sophisticated look that steals the show when you walk into a room.

Eye shadow is a cosmetic that is applied on the eyelids and under the eyebrows. Eye shadow is commonly used to make your eyes stand out or to look more attractive. Eye shadow can add depth and dimension to your eyes and complement the eye color. Whether your eye color is brown, hazel, green, or blue, glitter eyeshadow will wear fashionably well on you!
Glitter eye shadow can be applied in a wide variety of ways depending on the desired look and formulation. Typically, the application is done using your fingers or makeup brushes. For liquid eye shadows, often times the eye shadow can be applied to your eyes much like wiping a pencil across the lids.
How to Apply Glitter Eye shadow:
- Prepare your eye by applying eye primer all across your upper and lower eyelids (this limits the chances of creases in your eye shadow).
- Blend the primer thoroughly using your fingertip.
- Select either a powder, cake glitter eye shadow or a liquid glitter eye shadow.
- Apply to your upper, lower, or both eyelids with fingertips, makeup brushes or pencils.
- Experiment with various colors to match your clothes or your eye color. Neon colors will make the eyes pop. Pastel colors will give off a dainty, elegant look.
- To remove the glitter eye shadow, a commercial eye makeup remover can be utilized. For some, warm water alone can be used.
Glitter Eye Shadow Color Combinations to Bring Out the Color of Your Eyes:
- Brown and/or Gold Eyes: Go with brown, chocolate, gold, and orange eye shadows. Stunning!
- Blue Eyes: Go with shades of blues and pinks. Dainty!
- Green and/or Hazel Eyes: Go with light browns, greens, and purples. Exquisite!
- Violet Eyes: Go with pinks, purples, and lavenders. Luscious!
