Strictly speaking, there are many kinds of eye shadow blending techniques, such as flat coating method, gradient method, three-dimensional blending method, segmented method, European eye shadow method, oblique technique, eye end emphasis method, among which the gradient method can be fine. It is divided into two types: vertical and horizontal. The European eye shadow method can also be divided into line European style and shadow European style. The segmental method can also be divided into two-stage and three-stage. Below are just the 4 most common ones.
1. Flat coating method
The gradient blending of single-color eyeshadow is done from the bottom to the top of the eyelashes with a flat application technique. It is generally suitable for eyes with single eyelids and good eye structure, and is mostly used for light makeup.
Flat application method: The eye shadow is the darkest near the root of the eyelashes, and gradually smudges upwards, becoming lighter and lighter until it disappears, showing an obvious gradient effect.
2. Gradient method
Match 2 to 3 eye shadow colors to eliminate eyelid puffiness and widen the distance between eyebrows and eyes. The gradient method is a very three-dimensional painting method. Generally speaking, it means to first use two eye shadows of the same color to match, and no more than three eye shadow colors should be matched.
Vertical gradient painting method: first apply a light color, and apply the light color on the upper eyelids with a flat coating method. The eyeshadow color gradually becomes lighter from bottom to top. Divide the color from the eyeliner to the eye socket into three equal parts, and gradually lighten the color from the eyeliner upwards. Then choose an eye shadow that is darker than the color in step 1 and draw the eye shadow in three equal parts starting from the root of the eyelashes.
3. Three-dimensional blooming method
It is shallow in the middle and deep on both sides. It has strong applicability and three-dimensional effect. It requires higher makeup skills. It gradually becomes lighter from the bottom (the root of the eyelashes) to the top (the range of the eye socket).
Three-dimensional blending method: Highlight the brow bone and the middle of the eyeball on the upper eyelid, and draw eyeshadow from the root of the eyelashes to the eye socket, making it darker at the bottom and lighter at the top. Apply eye shadow radially from the inner corner and outer corner of the eye to the middle of the eyeball, making it darker on both sides and lighter in the middle. Draw an oblique triangular lower eyeshadow from thick to thin on the lower eyelid along the root of the lower eyelashes from outside to inside, the length being two-thirds of the eye length. Apply highlighter to the inner third of the lower eyelid and bring it to the inner corner of the eye and the inside of the upper eyelid.
4. Eye tail aggravation method
The focus is on deepening the three-dimensional sense of the triangle area at the end of the eyes to create extremely deep and charming electric eyes. It can enlarge the eyes and enhance the depth of the eyes. It is suitable for Asians, people with double eyelids and droopy eye corners.
How to deepen the end of the eye: Apply the basic color of eye shadow to the entire eyelid starting from the root of the eyelashes at the end of one third of the eye. Then apply the transition color horizontally from the root of the eyelashes to the oblique two-thirds of the entire eyelid. Finally, add color to level the entire last third of your eyelids.
