Glitter Eye Makeup Step by Step: If you are trying glitter eye makeup for the first time and are confused about the steps, then this guide is for you. In this tutorial, every step is explained in simple language so that even beginners can achieve a professional look. Fewer products, better technique and a clean finish—all in one place.

Step 1: Preparing the Base (Applying Primer)

Applying makeup primer to eyelid

Technique: First, cleanse and moisturize the skin under your eyes. Then, apply a little eye primer or concealer to the eyelids and surrounding skin. Blend it lightly with your finger or a flat brush. This will make your eyeshadow look shiny and last longer.

used goods: A creamy eye primer or light concealer. Finger or a small flat shadow brush.

Step 2: Applying a light base shade

Technique: Now, take a nude or beige colored eyeshadow. Use a fluffy blending brush to spread it across your lids, all the way up to the eyebones. Blend it well so that a light layer is formed. This will act as a base for your eyes and make it easier for subsequent colors to blend.

Items used: Nude or ivory colored eyeshadow (powder or cream). A medium sized fluffy blending brush.

Step 3: Highlighting the inner corner

Technique: This step is to make your eyes look open and bright. Take a bright, light shimmery eyeshadow (cream or powder). Apply it using your finger or a small brush on the inner corner of the eyes and the brow bone. This will work like a spot light.

used goods: Shimmery silver, pink or pearl white eyeshadow. A small flat shadow brush or finger.

Step 4: Eyeliner

Technique: A very thin and natural line has to be made. With a black or brown mascara or gel eyeliner, draw a fine line just above the lashline of the upper lashes. Start from the outer corner of the eye and move inward. Keep it light and soft.

Items used: Black or brown waterproof kajal or gel eyeliner. A thin eyeliner brush.

Step 5: eyes to appear thick and dense

Technique: This will make your eyes look completely lively. Get a curling mascara. Apply it upwards in a zig-zag motion, starting from the root of the upper lashes. Can be applied lightly on lower curtains also. Applying two coats will make the curtains appear denser.

Items used: Black Volumizing or Lengthening Mascara

Step 6: Refine and ready look

Technique: Now look at your eyes. Does any shade seem too dark? If yes, then blend it lightly with a blending brush. Then, once again touch a little highlighter on the inner corner. Your naturally highlighted, beautiful eyes are ready! Items used: Clean Blending Brush. The same highlighter eyeshadow that was used in step 3.
