Then decide what eye makeup will be the best match, and what feature do you want to highlight — lashes, eyelids or eye shape, whether you prefer to add a pop of colour or stick to natural shades, put on glitter or keep it matte. Finally, make sure your eye makeup is waterproof and long-lasting, prime your eyelids, set your makeup products and under eye zone.
