Eyelid musings
May. 14th, 2015 12:38 amHave you ever spent time just looking at people's eyelids? They are naturally shiny and pearlescent. Most are pink and gold/brown; my manager's actually have a hint of green. No wonder most eyeshadows are shiny. Maybe if you want to enhance an eyelid while retaining its essential nature, shiny is a more natural idea than matte.
(Yes, I have been mentally applying eyeshadow to men. Sue me. I have been in a lot of meetings this week, and I work in tech.)
MAC has an awesome array of eyeshadow colors, and of fanatic followers who write blog posts (here, here, here) on the best shadows for blue eyes. I'm making lists. It's quite relaxing to look at all the colors, like shopping for yarn or paint.
There are also blog posts and tutorials on eye makeup for hooded eyes! Oh hey! I've never, ever applied eyeshadow beyond the crease... but it makes sense that I maybe ought to, if I want more of it to show than the 3mm of lid I seem to have visible with my eyes open normally.
