Adapt it to your style
This year, Studio 54’s disco look is very hot, but it doesn’t have to be too intense. A touch of metallic shadow in the inner corners of the eyes, or even on your cheeks, is enough to add a little sparkle to your makeup.
It all depends on the shape of your eyes
Before you start with any glitter or metallic tones, think about what usually suits your eyes when you do a smokey eye. For example, do you prefer a rounded shape where the color is at the top and bottom of the eyes? Or do you prefer a cat eye effect?
Once you know what suits you, you can apply the glitter tones in a similar way. Thus, you will ensure that the result flatters the shape of your face.
Complete your placement
For an absolutely stunning eye look, place the glitter in the center of your eyelid. Then, apply a small amount of highlighter to the inner and outer corners for extra sparkle. At the same time, this will create a very flattering shape, highlighting your eyes.
Extra tip: Place a small amount of glitter on the brow bone for even more brightness.
Don’t think about it too much
As with any makeup look, the most important part of the look is to enjoy it. So don’t overthink it and simplify the process by choosing a shade that will highlight your eye color.
If you have blue eyes, try golden shades.
If you have green eyes, prefer purple or pink shades reminiscent of precious stones.
If you have brown eyes you can use any shade. We suggest something bright like gold, bronze or champagne glitter shadow.
Use the right products
For a stunning look that will last all night, combine shadows with different textures. Specifically, she first applied a cream shadow and then a glitter powder shadow. Thus, you will stabilize the creamy shadow, extending its duration. At the same time, you can combine the glitter shadows with your favorite matte shadows for a complete evening look.
Try an eye primer for better application
If you’ve tried eyeshadow with glitter, then you know that it often falls under your eyes or on your cheeks. To avoid this in the first place, start by applying an eye primer. In addition to a cleaner application of the glitter, the primer will extend the duration and enhance the intensity of your shadows.
Finish with a setting spray
The setting spray is the ideal conclusion for impressive evening make-up. That is why it is essential in every festive look. But if you are thinking of trying disco eyes, then it has another advantage. In particular, you can spray your brush with the setting spray and apply the shadow in a slightly liquid form.
This will lift the look in an instant, giving your eyes an incomparable shine that will last all night!
