Category 3 Eyes
The Look of Shadows
Eyes are by far the most creative category. In this group there are no limitations, only your imagination. The sky is the limit. Anything from one color washed over your entire lid, to nighttime glam and holiday looks.
This group utilizes all formulations of cosmetics- cream, liquid, gel and powder. Use the type of brush made specific for the type of eyebrow product you are using. Cream, liquids and gels function best when used with synthetic brushes. These brushes are made from manmade materials such as nylon, taklon or polyester and are not as porous as natural hairs so they don’t absorb makeup as their natural counterparts. Synthetic brushes are unique in that the bristles naturally gravitate towards each other, allowing for a more precise, smooth and streak free application. And because of the hairs’ precise properties, they are great for angled, sharply cut brushes.
Additionally, powder eyeshadow products work best when used with a natural hair brush. These brushes are made of animal hair such as sable, squirrel and goat and contain cuticles which have great pick up and blending properties. Cuticles help lift and absorb powdery pigment along with your skins oils and blend them seamlessly across the face creating natural, non-blotchy look. The hair is also super soft and makes for easy blending
