Rufus R. Noble A high-shine metallic eye was the standout beauty look at the Golden Globes and the BAFTAS.
Metallic eyes were everywhere on the red carpet, whether Margot Robbie’s shimmering gold or Emily Blunt’s ethereal gold.
It’s possible to achieve this look with just a little practice, regardless of age or eye color. The trick is to find the right look for you. This could be anything from a subtle sweep of color to the dramatic dialing up of the lid to brow color.
Here’s how to do it yourself, or book a professional appointment.
1. Apply eyeshadow to your lids. Apply a good amount of black shadow to the outer and inner corners of the eyes using an eyeshadow brush. To soften the shadow, use an eyeshadow brush.
2. Blend the black shadow into your crease, gradually increasing the intensity until you’re satisfied with the result. Apply some dark shadow to your lower lash line, and then smudge.
3. After the black has been blended, apply the gold shadow to the center area of your eyelid. You can add more pigment by using your finger to blend the black and pressing the gold onto your lid.
4. To diffuse the edges, blend the black and the gold.
5 Apply mascara to the top and lower lashes. Wiggling the wand between the root and tip will help you to get the best look.
6. A little bit of the gold shadow or highlighter should be applied to the inner corner of the eye and at the beginning of the lower lash line. You can also add beautiful lashes that last up to six weeks by using an LVL tint or a lift treatment.
