Next, the upper and lower eyelids cover the base color. Perhaps there will be two. The first shade is slightly lighter and the second one is slightly darker. A small transition is not forbidden. The main thing is that the parts closest to the very eye should be covered with darker colors than the under-eye and the corner of the nose of the nose.

Considering that this makeup is for the first half of the day and even taking into account neutral pink shades, it is important to shade the shadows well. Do not make the layer too dense, the strokes should be practically weightless. Give a hint of color, a slight shadow, then it will be beautiful. You can even abandon the primer or base for the eyes, so as not to show excess color pigment.

Golden shades also look appropriate in the daily version and perfectly demonstrate the charm of the gray-blue eyes. In this version, it is also better to sum up your eyes with pencils of quieter shades, otherwise you risk turning the light smoky image into a dangerous Oriental or Greek one.

Light gray dusty color is also absolutely appropriate in daytime makeup variations. Save the darker coal colors for an evening out, and light gray, like steam or a small rain cloud, can be safely used.Well, if you have a gray pencil or eyeliner, black will again be too strong a contrasting factor. Try to make two looks, one make-up, created with the help of additional mother-of-pearl shine, and the second - a matte variation. Use white powder, eye shadow or even a pencil for the inner part of the eye for the area under the eyebrow, removing shine and playfulness from the image.
