Heylo people... Am back from my friend's wedding, though am still under a hangover! :P
Here is another query and this time it is from Kaishi's mom... This post is long overdue but I had been so caught up with the wedding stuff that I just couldn't get time to do justice to the query...
QUERY

A few tips and tricks in order to make up eyes that have little space between the crease and the brow, are wrinkly and might also have dark lids and dark circles are as follows:
1. First off, it's really very important to user an Eye Shadow base as it makes the lid surface even and helps in applying the shadow evenly. It also lightens the lid surface and gives good pigmentation to the shadow. If you do not have an eye shadow base available, you could use a concealer and then set it with loose powder.
2. Second, never use dark shades of shadow beyond the crease. If possible use darker shades only till half the lid and go for lighter shades as you gradually go up the eye... Always remember to have lighter shades of shadows on the crease and also above it.
3. Use really bright shades like Bright Blues, Purples, Fuschia Pinks etc as these will stand out irrespective of dark lids and dark circles. Avoid greens, greys and light pinks. If you want to go for a natural look, you could opt for Bronze.
4. If you have close-set eyes then you could also use a lighter shade of a shadow in the inner corners of the eye.
5. Always use a highlighter shade under your brows i.e. on your brow bone. It reflects light and hence becomes prominent and make the brow bone stand out.
