HOW TO BLEND EYESHADOW LIKE A MAKEUP ARTIST

As any makeup artist will tell you, the secret to good-looking eyeshadow is all in the blending. But do you know how to blend eyeshadow like a pro? Here, Maybelline makeup artist Erin Parsons breaks down how to do eyeshadow to create a super-special three-dimensional eye look that combines a diffused wash of bright color with plenty of glimmering shine.

HOW TO BLEND EYESHADOW STEP 1: APPLY EYESHADOW BASE & BLEND

Take a richly colored eyeshadow pen and tap the sponge tip applicator, already loaded with color, onto eyelids. Use your finger or a clean, dry eyeshadow brush to blend color deeper into lids, fading it to a wash. Color should be richer along the lash line, fading out into a sheer, seamless veil right above the crease.

Now that you're all blended and faded to perfection, take that same eyeshadow shade and add another layer of it just in the inner and outer corners of eyes. Blend and soften the edges with an eyeshadow brush.
