Why this worksSpring is all about brightness and vibrancy, so using lively colours can really lift your look. Bright shades can enhance your eye colour, making them pop while creating a cheerful vibe. By layering techniques like blending and highlighting, you can achieve a fresh, radiant look that reflects the season's beauty.

The ritual, step by step

  1. Prep Your Eyelids Start with a clean canvas by applying an eyeshadow primer to your eyelids. This will help your eye makeup adhere better and stay vibrant throughout the day.
  2. Choose Your Color Palette Select a palette with bright shades like pastels or vivid hues. Think about colours that complement your eye colour and the vibe you want to create, whether it’s soft pinks or bold blues.
  3. Apply Base Shade Use a neutral base shade all over your eyelid to set the primer. This will help the bright colours blend more easily and provide a smooth transition.
  4. Layer Bright Shades Start applying your chosen bright shades with a fluffy brush. Focus on the outer corners and blend inwards for a seamless look. You can use multiple colours for a more dynamic effect!
  5. Add Definition Use a darker shade to define your crease and outer corners. This will add depth to your eye look and help the bright colours stand out even more.
  6. Finish with Highlights Apply a shimmery highlighter in the inner corners of your eyes and under your brow bone. This brightens your eyes and adds a lovely finishing touch.

Where people go wrong

Many people skip the primer, leading to less vibrant results. Others may choose colours that clash with their skin tone, resulting in an unflattering look. Over-applying can make the look appear messy, so remember to blend well!

The pro moveConsider using a setting spray post-application to lock in your bright look and enhance longevity.
