Dramatic eye makeup tips

If you'd rather draw attention to your beautiful eyes, here are some suggestions that will earn you admiring glances instead of recommendations for a new brand of contact lenses.
Make sure your lashes and brows are perfect
Before you reach for a tube of mascara or case of eye shadow, make sure your lashes and brows are in perfect shape.  Tweeze any stray hairs from under the arch of your brow, as well as from the space above your nose.  When your eye makeup is dramatic, every unplucked hair will become the center of unwanted attention!  If your brows have been long neglected, do consider having a professional make up artist or esthetician arch your eyebrows.  Condition your brows and lashes to maximize shine and health.
Think about the time of day.
The amount of drama you want to bring to your eyes should bear in mind the time of day and occasion.  Dramatic eye makeup for the evening may be inappropriate for the workplace, mall or luncheon.  But after dark or perhaps for when posing for a portrait, dare to be dramatic!
How to turn heads
To really make your eyes the center of attention, start by applying a light shade of shadow just below your brow line, apply a medium shade of shadow to your main lid and apply eye liner along the length of your upper lid, just above your lash line. Then repeat just beneath the lash line on your lower lid, meeting the upper line at the outer corners of your eyes.
Sexy, sultry eyes
Get those come hither sexy eyes by applying a light to medium shade of eye shadow to your entire lid area. Then, use a darker, complimentary color, applied to the outer third of your main lid area, extending slightly beyond the outer corner of your eye. You should also brush mascara onto the tips of the lashes near the inner corners, and on the full length of the lashes near the outer edges.
Choose the right mascara
Many women think that black mascara is the only choice when they're going for a dramatic look.  But if you have fair skin or extremely pale lashes and brows, black can be simply overwhelming.  Consider a soft brown/black, or rich chestnut if you have brown or blond hair.  There are even mascara shades in auburns for redheads.  Make sure the color you select accents rather than obscures your natural lashes.  Experiment with different colors to find the one that looks best with your skin, hair and eye color.
