How to wear makeup with glasses

I came across this great video on how to wear makeup when you wear glasses so that the makeup still pops. I really enjoyed the video and the tips are very easy to follow. If you don’t have those specific products or your skin tone doesn’t go well with the color palette mentioned, use ones that do. I’m going to give these tips a try myself so make sure you scroll down and check out my picture.

I tried this out. The instructions were fairly easy to follow. It did take some steady hands to do the cat eye, but I think it came together well for my first time.

Here is the look without my glasses.

I used a gray shadow as a base and a dark turquoise on the sides of my eye with a purple right in the crease like the video. I used the Maybelline Eye Studio cream liner in charcoal and Loreal Lash Architect Mascara, which I reviewed here http://cluelessfashionista.com/beauty/beauty-product-test-driveloreal-lash-architect-mascara.html

This is how it looked with my glasses on.

How do I wear that trend…soft smokey eye

The smokey eye has been popular for quite some time. It does add quite the sexy allure when your eyes are properly smoked. Typically it’s a look saved for a more high glam look when you’re going out on the town or to a formal event. With the spring makeup trends, it’s become something that can be worn in other situations. By making the smokey eye, soft, you can put it on during the day without it being overwhelming. This is great for us ladies that may be intimidated by the smokey eye thinking it’s too dramatic. Rather than doing the smokey eye with dark colors like plums, black and browns, make it softer by using grays, taupe and pinks. You can do it using the softer colors that are ideal for the warmer months. I’ve already posted an instructional video showing you how to do a smokey eye. Check out the post. It’s very helpful. I’ve done a smokey eye using it and it turned out nicely.

Smoke Those Eyes!

So to recap. Take a look at the video. Instead of using dark colors, use lighter softer colors and practice smoking your eye! I’d love to receive some pictures of successful soft smokey eyes. Please share!
