Makeup Transformation: Under-Eye-Shadow

Posted by ChickAdvisor Team | Monday September 5, 201139 comments
Why not try something new today? Instead of the waterline-eyeliner combo, lets try adding some colour to our lower lash line! Us girls at the ChickAdvisor Office decided to try putting more pop into our eyes.

Michelle added some gold under her eyes, similar to the metallic eyeshadow that we have used in the past. This time, she added it onto her lower eye line to pop her eyes out more. Don't they look bigger? The products that she used are from L.A. Colors 5 Color Metallic Eyeshadow in gold.

How dramatic are Alexandra's eyes? By using NYX Eyeshadow in Cherry and Joe Fresh Eyeshadow in black, Alexandra extended her eyes for a more winged look. 
 
Tammy looks like she's ready for a night out after her makeup transformation! By using Annabelle Smoothie Eyeshadow Pencil in Purple, she lined her bottom line and a little more in her eyelid crease to create a dramatic effect.

Will you be trying this Under-Eye-Shadow trend? What colours would you use? Leave us a comment before September 12th and you can win a prize!

I think all three looks are nice, but for a more every day look I would go for Michelle's.

I do this fairly often, but not quite as extreme. I layer it over a fat shadow stick so it doesn't come off and smudge it out. If I have some green in the shadow I used on my upper lid, I'll put a bit of green on my lower lid. Or blue or brown or whatever the colors I am wearing that day. But I don't do it anywhere near as thick as the way the women above are wearing it. More like a bit of a fatter liner. A darker one in the outer corners of my eyes, then the highlight color I've chosen in the middle third. Then a much lighter shadow in the inner corners of my eyes, with all of them kind of smudged together at their edges.

Brenda, you don't like the way I do my eye makeup? LOL Must drive you nuts every time you see me with it like that haha :-) I'll think of you from now on every time I do my eyes that way :-)

I think it can look nice but it depends on the colours you use, and it looks better if its just a thin line like Tammy's. Personally, I would only use blue and purple but you could also use a one that enhances your eye colour. :)

I have to say I'm not a fan - eye shadow under the eye just looks dirty/sloppy to me - I prefer the heavily lined top lid look and just a touch of mascara on the bottom or very light touch of eyeliner. I do think it works better on some than others though - depends on your colouring and eye shape.

For smokey eyes, whatever colour I used as a shade in the eye crease, I use underneath my eyes. It gives eyes more contour rather than just the wet line and top eyelid shading. I use it for "natural" eyes sometimes, too. When I use browns, pale peaches, golds, etc. I often put it under my eyes to make them pop a little more. Shadows with sparkles or glimmer in it makes my eyes look a little more dressed up or whimsical. I, also, use light shades across the lower lash line to make my eyes lighter and bigger when I do pin-up style makeup.
