Dramatic
eye makeup can
make a statement as soon as you enter a room! If you like to be the
center of attention then you might want to make sure your eye makeup is
dramatic as possible. There are a great number of different techniques
you can try.
The reasons you want a dramatic eye look
might vary from someone else’s reasons. It might be that
you’re going to a party and want to stop everyone dead in
their tracks because you’re so beautiful.
Or, it might be that you’re part
of a theater production and you really need your eye makeup to stand
out to the crowd. Whatever your reasoning there is sure to be an eye
makeup look that will work for you.
If you want dramatic eye makeup to stand out
from the crowd you might want to consider the smoky eye look. Smoky
eyes are simply beautiful and extremely popular and have been for
years. To get smoky eyes you’ll need dark eye shadow, darker
eye shadow, eyeliner, and mascara.
1.The first thing you need to do is to apply
your eyeliner. Start on your upper lashes and make this line a bit
thicker than normal. Then, line your lower lashes. Once you have done
that it is time to smudge! You can do this part using a makeup sponge
or the end of your eyeliner if it includes a smudging tool.
2.Then you apply your lighter eye shadow to
your eyelid and just under your brow bone. Next, you can apply your
darker eye shadow to your eyelid. Blend these together!
3.Everything should now have a smoky effect.
If you want dramatic eye makeup look for a
drama production you can actually take a similar route. However,
you’ll want to do everything bigger and bolder.
If you want
everyone in the audience to be able to see your eye makeup, make sure
it is dark enough to be seen. A tiny line of eyeliner is not going to
be seen from the audience.
You might consider doing a dramatic cat eye
or exaggerated Asian eye makeup look as well. There is no reason why
you can’t go a bit over the top when you’re in the
theater. In fact, that’s half the fun!
Dramatic eye makeup definitely serves its
purpose. It really depends on the event you’re planning the
eye makeup for when you’re examining techniques.
Keep in mind that a dramatic smoky eye is
great for a night on the town, but an exaggerated dramatic look is best
for theater.
