Re: Eye Makeup!
o.k so i gave the sparkly look a try..lol, but i don’t have cosmetic glitter. And no gold craft glitter either. So this is wat i could come up with. i used transparent glitter instead.

Re: Eye Makeup!
thanks a lot girls!
and slackira, that looks great. the only thing i'd suggest is that you keep makeup removal wipes handy and wipe the bottom of your eye after you apply your makeup. you're bound to get lots of fall out when using shimmery or glittery eye shadows.
I lov lov lov Reflects Antique gold, Marwah those eyes of urs r looking amazing. I was watching somewhere, how people mix their glitters an pigments with eye drops then apply in to their eyes, but have no idea why lol
btw hers the link to my blog http://www.paklinks.com/gs/blogs/colourful-eyes/60200-omg.html I did check tht thread to see if any other eyes from gs where copied luckily not, but do go and check for urself to be on the safe side

Re: Eye Makeup!
thanks CE! that's really interesting..maybe it helps the pigment and glitter stay on?
i actually had a question about that. i like applying glitter on top of my eye shadow, so i can't put eye shadow on my eye, and then apply primer over it so the glitter sticks. so what should i do? for the black and golden glitter look i did, i put water on top of my eye shadow to get the glitter to stay on..but that doesn't always do the trick. and you're at risk for the glitter falling off, and your eye shadow messing up underneath. so what do yo girls use to get your glitter to stay?
Re: Eye Makeup!
Marwah..PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE we all need to see your step by step pics of doing any and every eye makeup you do. You can take pics at every stage and put them up later whenever you are free. Pretty please.....
you can use a mixing medium.
Re: Eye Makeup!
Yep Mixing Medium is what ur looking for (mind u it is a pro product) but looking back at ur pictures I thought u was using tht anyway......
what looks really nice (if ur daring enough:D) get some fake eye lashes and coat them with the mixing medium and apply glitter over it
People mix shimmery powder and fairydust with eye drops to make it stay-on longer and stay in place.
Marwah I love the shimmery bronze/black eyes.
Colourful eyes your queen. Which eye shadows and liner do u use. Have u learnt professionally?
aww thnx Jalpari, I use mostly MAC eye shadows and use fluid line also by MAC
And no I haven't learnt professionally, its all by watching utube Videos :D

ahh thnx for tht Gina, I was sitting there wondering why on earth would u mix eye drops to glitter......
^ U've mastered the art of eye-makeup!
Yeah they use eye drops for powder-shimmer and hair gel to keep the eyebrows in place!
Re: Eye Makeup!
ok now seriously I was thinking about the hair gel, I was about to fork out £20 yesterday for a brow gel, and I just kept on thinking to myself this feels like hair gel to me lol.....im so gonna try the hair gel now
Re: Eye Makeup!
yes, hair gel or vaseline work fine.
eye drops are pretty much the same as mixing medium. you can make your own mixing medium with glycerin and water too.

so you apply the medium on top of the eye shadow? have you tried it before? it doesn't mess up the eye shadow or anything does it?

oh really? so say i made my own medium using glycerin and water, would i apply that on top of my eye shadow? i sometimes use vasaline to remove my eye makeup, and it works beautifully. so now i'm thinking, if i use vasaline and water as the medium, won't it remove my eye shadow?
Re: Eye Makeup!
vaseline and water? vaseline is for the eyebrows. you can use it on its own to mix pigment if you want the high gloss look (mix before applying).
glycerin you buy as is... mix 3 parts water to 1 part glycerin. basically you take a little of this homemade mixing medium and mix pigment with it then apply it to your lid.
Re: Eye Makeup!
^sorry i meant glycerin!
