How To Google Search For Eye Make-Up Tips

This may seem like a silly post for some of you. But so many times I have been frustrated by eye makeup tips sites and YouTube tutorials. I try out the look but can’t seem to get it right. Something just looks off or the look I like doesn’t really look good on me. I’ve even gone to the M.A.C. website and printed off the ‘maps’ that tell you step by step how to create the look. Only sometimes does it actually look good. Once you get frustrated, then you get into a make up rut – stuck with a look that over time becomes stagnant.

One thing I’ve noticed that eye makeup experts don’t tell you anywhere on the net is because eye shapes are so different, you will not get the same look as on the model unless your eye shape is the same as hers. It makes sense but why don’t they tell you? Because they secretly want to keep you confused and spending money.

My suggestion is when doing a search on the net for eye makeup, put the shape of your eye in the search query.
For example: ‘eye shadow tips for almond eyes’.
If you don’t know what shape eyes you have, do a google search for ‘different eye shapes’ and match up to the one closest to your eyes. Also you can search by the color of your eyes to get the most dramatic effects.
For example: ‘eye shadow tips for blue eyes’.

Once you know your eye shape, then you can go back to YouTube and find the best how to videos to help you get that perfect new look you crave.

Don’t wait until you are getting ready for work to try a new look. If you end up not liking the way it looks on you, you are either stuck with it or run the risk of being late for your shift – probably reverting back to your old stand-by techniques to save time.

Earlier in the afternoon, spend an hour or so just practicing your eye make up. When it comes time to get ready for work, you’ll already know what to do. This will save time in the long run  and will ensure that you will feel good about the way you look.

You can also always go to the M.A.C. counter and ask for your make-up to be done by a pro – usually for free. Just make sure that you buy something. They will tell you how to re-create the look you want so you can do it yourself.

And for Godsakes, don’t ask your friend to do your makeup simply because you like the way she does hers. All too often she thinks it looks great and you wont like it but can’t really say anything for fear of hurting her feelings. It’s better to just not go there.

Instead ask her to go shopping with you. Who knows, maybe you’ll both come away with an exciting new look.
