You should put on whatever color you are using realy heavy and then you can either rub a little off at a time to get the color you want or put light tan or white over it until it gets the color you want. Vice versa, put on more until it is as dark or 'poppy' as you want it.How do i make the color of my eyeshadow 'pop' ?
whether ur using an eyeshadow brush, sponge, or just ur fingers, u can dip ur apparatus in water and pick up the eyeshadow color. the water brings out the intensity in the eyeshadow by making it darker and more vibrant.
to make the color of your eyeshadow pop.. you have to use a color near to the color of your eyes but somehow a little brighter.. :) find a eyeshadow compact the has the the shades of the color of your eyes. :)
i'm hoping your eyes are brown..


if it is, i can help you there.





i usually use remmel eyeshadow smoky eyes.


and it helps my eyes pop a lil.





so instead of it just being dark brown it actually makes it look lighter.
shimmer any color. i use to use lipgloss as a primer cuz it darkens it enough on my lighter skin.





try an eye primer.
Start with the brightest colors you can find and blend in a bit of white to tone it down.
Mary Kay has an Eye Primer that is good. Look for it at www.marykay.com/akosmoore. You may also want to try another brand of shadows. You can also dampen your brush with water. This usually helps.
When you apply foundation on your skin also apply this on your eye lids and on the top and bottom. This will be the base for your makeup and makes it last longer. Then use a light shade of eye shadow. Tan, white or beige over it. Next apply for example baby blue or light blue on the lower part of your eye lids only. Then only on the crease of your eyes use a darker shade of blue. Brushing inwards right on your crease from the outer side of your eyes. When you apply a dark shade you need to tap the brush or the applicator so you don't put so much color on your eyes. Only apply this on the outer side of your eye lids and while blending brush it inwards where ever the crease is. Then additional to make your eyes really stand out and pop apply eye liner and then a mascara. go to this website she shows you in her videos of before and after how to apply makeup period http://www.naocosmetics.com/


She's been a host for MTV that's why I like her so much and how she put on makeup. Have fun and I hope this helped you a little.
%26gt;Try using more than one color when choosing eye shadow.


%26gt;First off, apply a very light color over all of the eyelid you wish to cover.


%26gt;Then apply a darker color of the same shade region (i.e. light blue/smoky or light pink/violet) to the upper lid nearest to the crease


%26gt;Next apply a medium color to the lid.


%26gt;Use eyeliner and mascara accordingly (lighter colors litte or non)





The difference in colors add contrast to your eyelids, adding vibrancy to your eyes colors. Remember to play on your eye colors too.


Brown/Greens/Blacks


Blues/Greens/Pinks
this may be a little biased because i'm an avid m.a.c cosmetics user, but the thing i swear by, and use every day to make my eyeshadow really pop is their shadesticks. these are twistable sticks that look like really thick eyeliner and go on like cream eyeshadow. they come in a variety of colours, but i mostly use a neutral shade under all my eyeshadow to make colour stick better and to make the colour more vivid. it also helps your eyeshadow from creasing or fading throughout the day. you can also just wear them as an eyeshadow if you wish. only downside is that to some people they may seem pricey $19.50 CAD/$16.00 US

a cheaper option that i've heard of is using plain chapstick as a base, but to me this seems odd and...sticky.
