If eyes are the windows to the soul, then eyes made up to look sultry and sexy just may be the key to a man’s heart.
Hair and makeup artist, Annastasia Cucullo offers her expertise on achieving sultry bedroom eyes that will make him melt with every blink.
Perfect your canvas
There’s no point trying to dazzle him with your sultry peepers if the rest of your face isn’t flawless and glowing. There’s no need to spend hours piling make-up on, but do make sure that your skin is nice and evened out with the appropriate color foundation, bronzer and concealer under your eyes to neutralize any darker areas.
Choose the right shade
Cucullo explains that bedroom eyes are best achieved with darker tones such as black or brown eye shadow and liner, combined with a lighter tone that contains a bit of sheen to accentuate the brow bone and inner corner of the eye.
Getting started
Go over your whole lid with a dark chocolaty brown or black tone. Ensure the entire lid is covered, but don’t make the layer too thick. Also make sure the shade you are using can be blended easily for a softer look. Next, add some of the dark brown or black on the bottom of the lid and smudge so it’s not a hard line.
Line your eyes
Add a dark brown or black liner (depending on which shade of shadow you chose) on top of the lid starting from the middle of the upper lid very close to the lash line. Smudge that as well to ensure you have a soft, rather than hard line.
Intensify
If your eyes are quite large you can use the black or brown liner on the inside of the top and bottom lid to intensify the eye and help larger eyes appear smaller. “If you lengthen the line at the end of the lid going outwards, it will elongate the eye as well as help create that almond/cat eye shape,” Cucullo says.
Lighten up
Add the lighter tone like ivory or soft beige in the inner corner of the eye and along the brow bone. This will help accentuate those areas and brighten up your eyes. Always finish with lengthening and thickening mascara
