Silver glitter eyeshadow is making an appearance everywhere, from our social media accounts to the red carpet. Shiny eyes are glamorous and irresistible. The best thing about this glimmering eyes makeup trend is that it doesn’t need to be complicated. We’ve created a simple, silver glitter eyeshadow look as well as a matching face and lips makeup look so that you can achieve this sparkly makeup trend.
HOW TO WEAR A SILVER GLITTER EYESHADOW
Follow our step-by-step tutorial to create this striking look.
STEP 1: PRIME YOUR EYES
You should prime your eyes with an anti-aging eye primer before applying eye makeup. This will prepare your eyes, make colors more vivid, and ensure that your makeup lasts all night. A little foundation or concealer can be used in a pinch.
STEP 2: GRAB YOUR EYE SHADE
Layer a silver eyeshadow such as the L’Oreal Paris Infallible paints Metallics Eye Shadows in Aluminum Foil onto your eyelids. The metallic shadow will make your lids shimmery and perfect for glitter. Next, use a dark gray shadow such as the L’Oreal Paris Colour Riche Monos eyeshadow in Meet Me In Paris to define your crease. For a smokey effect, drag the same eye shadow along your lower line. Apply the L’Oreal Paris Colour Riche Monos eye shadow in Noir Cest Noir on the outer V to add depth to your eye makeup.
STEP 3: AND YOUR GLITER
To ensure that there is no fallout, apply the silver eye glitter using a patting motion. For a bold and sparkling look, add the glitter to your eye. Apply a little L’Oreal Paris Brilliant eyes in Shimmer Eyeshadow Makeup in String of Pearls on the center of your lid to make your glitter stand out. You can add contrast to your eye liner with a gold metallic shadow such as the L’Oreal Paris Brilliantes Shimmer Eye Shadow Makeup In Crown Gold.
Editor’s tip : Were you unable to prevent the fallout? No worries! To pick up any glitter specks, use a small amount of adhesive tape.
STEP 4: COAT YOUR LASHES
Apply a couple of coats of the L’Oreal Paris Bambi Eye Mascara, Lasting Volumization in Blackest Black to finish your silver glitter eyeshadow look.
STEP #5 – FILL IN YOUR ROWS
It’s crucial to have defined eyebrows when creating eye makeup looks this dramatic. To give your eyebrows some drama, use the L’Oreal Paris Unbelievabrow Longwear Weatherproof Brow Gel.
