How To Wear White Make Up

White make up is very outstanding and requires a lot of care when applying. You can use white mascara or eye-shadow to achieve a smoky hot look but you have to also consider all other aspects of your dressing and accessories. Follow the tips below :
White and black make up
  • White make up looks best on a smooth skin. Make use of foundation to smoothen your skin if it is rough before applying the white make up.
  • If you have small eyes, white mascara or eye-liner make your eyes appear larger. people with large eyes should use as little white around their eyes as possible to avoid enlarging their eyes further.
  • You can add some glitter to your white eye shadow to make it more lively. Silver glitter is especially great when you want to achieve a more metallic look. 
  • If you wear eyeglasses, avoid glittery white make up as it will tend to compete with the shiny surface of your eyeglasses. Eyeglasses for long sighted people also have a magnifying effect on your eyes and will automatically make your white make up more visible; use less make up with such eyeglasses. Short sighted people can use some more white make up around their eyes because their lenses have a diminishing effect on their eyes.
  • White make up tends to go with cool coloured accessories such as silver, white, sky blue and icy colors. You can also wear white make up with grey and black accessories because they are neutral.
  • Darker skinned people can do a mix of white and black eye-shadow with the white being more than black. You can even do a gradient shadow starting with black from your eye-liner and gradually moving to white at your eyelids.
  • If you have a warm skin tone such as olive or tan, you can mix white make up with other warm colored make up like brown, bronze and pastel colors to avoid having too much contrast between your eyes and the rest of your face.
