I Faked an ‘Eyelift’ Using These 4 Tips From a Celebrity Makeup Artist
January 28, 2022
TIP 3: Contour with Neutral Eyeshadows
If you want a really natural look but still a lifted snatched eye, Holm recommends using matte eyeshadows in neutral tones to create an elongated eye shape. We like the Makeup By Mario Master Mattes Eyeshadow Palette.
“Contour the crease with a neutral tone like a light warm brown and focus on blending in the outer corner,” she says. “Create a V-Shape in the outer corner using eyeshadow then apply your lashes without eyeliner. The eyeshadow and lashes create a natural optical illusion to lift the eyes upward,” she adds.
TIP 4: Don’t Forget Your Brows
To complete your ‘eye lift’ we recommend using the Maybelline New York Tattoo Studio Brow Lift Stick to give your brows a laminated effect, no appointment necessary. Apply the wax-like makeup side of the dual-ended stick onto brows in upwards strokes. Then use the side with the brush to comb brows up for even more lift.
