Hello guys! So in this video we're going to be
approaching neutral eyeshadows for deeper skin toned women.
I'm just going to get on with this video
where I'm showing you how to use brown neutrals
in the most basic manner.
It's just good choice of makeup well blended
to give you maximum effect for good looks.
So I would recommend that you pick neutrals
that have a little colour in it,
a little bit of red versus grey.
So it actually enhances your makeup
and makes your neutrals also look very very elegant.
Well you'll see here the difference between
warm neutrals and cool neutrals.
There's a way in which to apply them.
If you only intend to use the cool neutrals
make sure that you brighten the area around your eyes for certain.
As I always do,
I would advise that you use a good amount of
dusting powder under the eyes.
Now I'm just going in with a basic brown
that's quite close to her lids.
But there will be color in it
so it'll be quite neutral
and bit rusty.
I'm using a blending brush
but you could also use a flat eyeshadow brush
if you want intensity of color,
I'll show you what it does.
So right now as you can see I'm really creating
like a skin kind of finish
so there's not a big whack of color.
I'll just show you quickly what happens when you use
a paddle brush or a flat eyeshadow brush.
The color becomes more intense
so I'm just showing to you in the corner.
When you use a flat brush,
the pigment becomes way stronger.
So it's a matter of choice.
So on the same lid I showed you,
this is a heavier pigment same color,
this is a wash.
So it's a matter of finish, what kind of finish would you like?
I normally go with very skin kind of finishes
and having said that
this opaque finish also works really well.
Just continuing with this opaque finish anyway right now.
We'll blend it.
But if you notice this brown we're talking about browns here.
If you notice the brown has a fair amount of color
and that is quite desirable when you're doing
neutrals for deep skin or warmer skin.
As you can see there's a fair amount of color.
Now I'm just going to blend that off,
ever so slightly
on the edges.
So I'm just going in with a deeper tone
of the same kind of color.
So bricky brown.
So there's a bit of terracotta in the brown.
Again this is not so much about technique
it's about the right color.
And when you apply highlights make sure that
they are also you know in slightly creamy tones
and not very white.
So just now the eye is wrapped in a very nice warm neutral
and this kind of neutral always brings your face back alive.
So although it's not a hard and fast rule
it's just something for you to try
because when you see it in a palette
the pigment is so heavy that it looks
more red more orange.
But the real fact is when browns have a little color
they actually do this for you.
They make your eye come forward and
they don't make it recede and make it look dark and dull
which is completely against the whole idea
of what you're trying to achieve here.
So we want to take the dark circles away
and give your eyes some life.
So just used a big melange of warm browns here
and that's it! It's not really a great makeup design
or anything it's just the choice of
beautiful colors that bring your eyes alive.
There she goes! So I'm just going to knock off
the powder from under her eye.
I'm just using a warm brown coal as well
inside her eye.
Basically trying to keep the look very neutral in color
so you can see how effective a good choice of neutral is.
Going to continue with the next eye.
Well thanks Rati!
She really turned into this amazingly
beautiful girl not that she wasn't
but I'm just saying it's just the right pick of neutrals
because neutrals kind of we I think we underestimate what neutrals
can do, they can be really smouldering
very sexy and here's a great pick of neutrals,
very simple makeup.
It's not earth-shattering for anybody to follow.
And neutral picking has been a challenge for many over the years
and I think it's just a matter of switching your brain
because what you see in the palette
translates very differently on skin.
It's just understanding that warm colors just
bring brightness and warmth to your own skin.
So a little help along the way from
the Glamrs studio and I hope you achieve something like this
and make the right color choices.
