How to Use Eye Makeup to Structure Your Face

Hi, I'm Michelle Renee with the Michelle Renee Makeup Artist Group and on behalf of Expert Village I'm gonna demonstrate makeup for Winter. Before I apply any shadow I want to talk about the different shapes of eyes. Now Leslie has classic eyes. That means that they're perfectly set evenly across the face. Now if you have a smaller space in between your eye brows, that's close set eyes. If there is an unusual space and your eyes are further apart on your face, those are wide set eyes. Also, while looking at your eyes, if your eyes are deep set and the most prominent feature is your brow bone, those, that is called hooded eyes. Now, depending on what kind of eye shape you have is gonna be depending on where we put the shadow. So, right now Leslie has classic eyes and we're gonna be putting in the shadow in the corner. If you have deep set eyes, remember that dark colors receive and light colors jump out at you. You want to use your accent color on your hooded part of the brow bone. If you have wide set eyes that means your eyes are set apart. You want to use the majority of the color in the creases. This will bring your eyes closer together. If you have close set eyes, that means your eyes are closer in to each other. You want to use the darker color on the outside and have a light color in the corners. This will give your eyes the illusion that they're farther apart. And now we're gonna go on to color.
