Makeup is an art. Beauty is a spirit. So have a look at todays makeup by Lekshmi Menon.
Namaskaram. Welcome back to yet another episode of Penazhuk. This is Lekshmi here. Today I am going to teach you a Eye Makeup. It's very simple
but pay attention to Eye Makeup and we are not using too many colours. If you learn this Eye Makeup, you can use it in many occasions for
day and night look. Name of this Eye Makeup is called Dual Tone Eye Makeup. In Dual Tone Eye Makeup, we use dual colour for Eye Makeup.
If you see, you can see my canvas, that is, my makeup canvas is ready. With Foundation, Concealer and Powder I have set the base ready. I have also done my Eyebrows,
my basic contouring, blush and highlighter and I have also applied my Lipstick. Next, I am going to show you how to
incorporate a brown colour. So first I am going to do is, with a blending brush, this is a pointed blending brush,
I am taking a matt brown colour. Product as always take a small quantity and tap off the excess.
Looking at the mirror, I am applying it on the crease line.
I had applied this. Next, with a fluffy blending brush, no product in this brush. Without any product,
I am blending it. We have to blend it like a car window wiper's motion. Blending have
no limitation, you can blend as you like. Because our eye shadow should be always harmonious and should be blended well. This is very important.
It should be feathery, that should be important. Next, taking some more eye shadow that is brown colour and applying it.
Again, with a brush without product we are blending it. This is called creating dimension.
So when we put a different colour on our eyelid, it gives a dimension or look only when we create dimension. Eye shadow shouldn't look like we have painted it,
instead it should be feathery.
This wind wiper motion is very important because this motion helps the product to give feathery look. When we put eye shadow,
it should not look like it has been painted. It should be feathery, harmonious. Makeup should be harmonious. I always
used tell my students that makeup is just like ragas in music. There should be synchronisation in all. That
synchronisation in makeup will give a pleasing to the eyes. If we just paint some colours, it won't blend together as well as it won't be eye pleasing.
Whatever may be the colour, it should be harmonious. Taking some more eye shadow, like this and accordingly
applying it. Using same brown. Apply it and with another brush, blend in.
If you notice, you can see that by the crease line it has feathered. Next I am going to do is apply my second colour. I am going to use, as always, gold tone.
So, I don't mean antique gold or yellow gold. But according to your sari or outfit you can use different colours. Today, for this look,
I am going to use a champagne gold. Its the colour of champagne which have less gold element. It's this third colour. This is champagne
gold colour. Today I am going to use this colour. But you can use any colour that matches with your sari or outfit. In Dual tone,
we incorporate two colours for our eye makeup. With a flat brush, I am taking this eye shadow and placing it on the eyelid.
I have taken the champagne gold and placing it on the eyelid.
Next, with the blending brush I am taking the same brown colour, tap off the excess and apply it on the crease line.
Gives you a definition. Now this is Dual Tone Eye Makeup. For Dual Tone, you can use any colours according to your outfit. Along with this, draw your eyeliner
to complete the look. As always, I am going to draw my eyeliner. Today I am going to draw a winged. You can draw a small winged or long winged
eyeliner or just draw a thin line. Its your preference. According to your convenience, draw your eyeliner. Today I am going to draw a wing and will be back soon.
So if you notice you can see I have drawn my wing liner. I have drawn it lengthy. If you don't want this long, you can give a flick. This is a typical winged cat eye.
If you want just to draw a thin line, you can also do it. Next with a kajal pencil, I am going to draw under my eyes. This step is optional.
If you like, you can draw your kajal. I like it very much because for dual tone eye makeup, it gives a good look. I am going to draw it. If you notice, I am just drawing it lightly.
I have drawn it. But don't just leave it. With brown eye shadow, you have to blend it. Then only eye makeup
makes the eye bigger. So I am taking the same matt brown which I have applied to crease and blending it below my eyes.
So, I have done the same to other eye also. I applied my mascara. I curled and applied mascara on eyelashes. Both on upper and lower lashes.
This is a dramatic eye makeup. Below eye makeup is optional, if you don't prefer you don't have to do.
Not only to ethnic wear, you can do this with western wear also. I am wearing a western wear today. Its a dramatic pretty eye makeup. Its very simple.
This can be done in three tone, quad tone, penta tone, hexa tone and goes on. That is very difficult
but dual tone is simple. Definitely try it out. I will see you very soon next week. Until then bye bye.
