As a Naples makeup artist I have been asked to give the "perfect eye" for each eye shape, given the close photography done by local photographers. In this particular picture, I was asked to make the eyes look absolutely perfect given the fact that it is such a close up shot. Here are some of the techniques I used:
First I took the same basic techniques I used for the 1930's look and applied it to the model's eyes. Instead of applying a blending brush and blending everything together, I brought out the liner way past the outer corner of the eyes and then took two different pigments and aligned them along the lid.
Gold and Green pigments (sparkle) were used to bring out the green in her eyes. Also the long eye liner accentuated her almond eye shape to give a beautiful Cleopatra eye!
Eventually I took a blending brush and slightly added a white/gray highlighter under the brow bone to make the look just a TAD softer. The eyes came out beautiful and especially glimmered in the cameras.
If you have any questions on how to do this look or how to do makeup in general please feel free to email me :)!
