Daily efforts in skincare are all in pursuit of flawless and radiant skin. If you’re still tirelessly working towards this goal, why not try a shortcut? Enhance your beauty with shimmering eye makeup to stand out in the crowd and shine in front of the camera.
Since you’ve chosen to shine infinitely on eye makeup, why not shine brightly and hysterically. Applying shimmer eyeshadow is just the first step, directly apply glitter with a reflective effect, and instantly light up your entire makeup look. Either don’t shine, or shine to the fullest!

On the international fashion stage, it is not difficult to find the figure of sparkling eye makeup. In the spring/summer 2019 fashion show, Simone Rocha must be the most dazzling. Directly using pink glitter or silver glitter instead of eyeshadow, even the lower lash line is generously filled with glitter. There are no more unnecessary thick black eyeliner, dense eyelashes, and other decorations, just a concept of shining brightly with single-minded determination!
Emma Stone, Lucy Boyton
The highly anticipated Met Gala, sometimes referred to as the Oscars of the fashion world, may have come to a close last Monday, but the coverage of the party has not stopped. Everyone was stunned by the celebrities’ extravagant and unique outfits. If the outfits weren’t eye-catching enough, they would enhance them with “eccentric makeup” to stand out on the star-studded red carpet, of course, not forgetting the shimmering eye makeup. Emma Stone and Lucy Boynton both showcased glittery eye makeup, with Emma directly applying glitter to her eyelids, while Lucy radiantly placed strip-shaped glitter around her eyes, simply and elegantly making themselves more eye-catching under the flashlights.

If you are a beginner in makeup and are not used to or don’t know how to apply glitter on your eyelids like celebrities do, you can rely on eyeshadows with shimmer to brighten your eyes. There are many choices of shimmer eyeshadows, so where should you start? It is recommended to choose some brownish-gold tones as a base on the eyelids, using this contour shadow color range to soften the swelling illusion brought by the shimmering gloss.

Shimmery eye makeup often gives a mature womanly vibe, but the key to making shimmery makeup look younger lies in the choice of colors. Avoid using common dark eyeliners, opt for light eyeliners with strong contrast to add a bold experimental touch to the overall eye makeup. However, light eyeliners should only be lightly applied at the outer corners of the eyes as an accent, the lines should not be too thick or too long, or it may create the illusion of puffy eyes.

When deliberately using light-colored eyeliner to make your makeup look younger, don’t let the lip color make your anti-aging efforts go to waste. It is recommended to choose a relatively subtle and soft pink lipstick that is not too eye-catching or intense in color. The key is that the lipstick should have a moderate sheen, as overly matte or overly glossy lip makeup will clash with the overall shimmering eye makeup.
