How to get a glossy eye look

Did you ever wonder how models get that shiny eye makeup looks in high-fashion editorial shoots? You definitely did and that’s why we’ll have to admit, there’s just a right dose of runway vibe when having our eyes looking like this.

Getting your glossy look is something that requires certain skill together with adequate make-up products. As we already know, most of eye-shadows are somewhat dry, powder-based or even creamy, and you do not want to end up with that sweaty effect which could occur. There is a tiny line between having a marble, glossy look and something which is wannabe glossy look.

What a girl needs here in order to get this, special glossy eye look is just right dose of consistency, shine and sparkle, together with nice shades that match eye’s colour. Before L'Oréal came up with Infallible Paints Eye Shadow, we usually had to use some tricks in order to achieve the effect, but now it gets easier than ever. Ultra-intense, longwearing colour of these shadows allows you not to worry if the effect is still lasting or not. Believe me, it will be there, just like mine was while having those stunning shadows. I`ve personally chosen green shades, and it turned out as a good decision as it perfectly suited my eyes. To be precise, I’ve used the shadow 310-Army Camo. I love the shades of olive green, they look so natural. Magical and mysterious. Artistic. Completely new era of make-up available in everyday life. You do not have to be a make-up artist in order to use this technique, just to choose your colour and give yourself a try. These kinds of shadows can be used on a clean eye or mixed with other shades, based on preferences or occasions. With a just bit of mascara, you are totally ready to run your show. You do not need any additional highlighting or even putting some shiners, this is a perfect dose of glamour-no exaggeration wanted. Keep it stylish. And there it is, we can have a personal runaway wherever we choose.

This spring is very cheerful, it is all about colours and shades – matching and playing with them. We can paint and we can wear our make-up creations, thus - use your creativity and #gopaintyourself.
