I love eyeshadow, it’s my fix. Well, you gotta have something, it’s a little weird maybe but I love trying them in different ways and playing around like I would with any new accessory. Playful and light for weekend days, more dramatic for night and whatever my mood is on a work day, they can reflect who I am just as much as my clothes do.
The Bella Vi eyeshadows are like that; amazingly versatile. They can be used dry for a softer everyday natural look, as a base colour, or wet for a more intense dramatic colour or eyeliner and dry for a softer everyday natural look.
I dove straight in and used the Moonstone colour as a base then added other colours on top but thought I’d use my fingers to apply it and put way too much on. It’s great that you only need a tiny amount, you’ll think it’s not enough but the colour really holds and blends with other other colours smoothly. Though I think it’s time for me to get their oval fluff eyeshadow brush to help me a little more, like any artist, you need a good brush.
Here’s Bella Vi’s advice for how to put make your eyes look incredible:
Use light base colours to highlight the brow bone
Use medium colours on the eyelid and crease
Use dark colours to contour and define the outer eye socket and lash line
Apply base colour first then draw along lash line with eyeliner then apply the darker contour colours in the socket crease by pressing the powder onto the eyes using the Bella Vi oval fluff eyeshadow brush or a fine chisel eyeshadow brush.
WET: Mix a small amount of powder with water in the lid of your eyeshadow container ( wipe the lid out with tissue when finished) to create a crème eyeshadow and using a fine cheisel brush to draw along the lash line for a liquid eyeliner effect and also creates a dramatic luster of colour on the eyelid.
