How to use red shadows in makeup?
The main rule to follow is dictated by the main concern. In some cases, if the shade of red shadows was chosen incorrectly, or if the wrong technique was used to apply them, the effect of tearful eyes, or eyes with conjunctivitis, may occur. To exclude the possibility of a painful effect, you do not need to do such a make-up if you have not had enough sleep or, say, are tired. Otherwise, the look will be unhealthy, no matter how hard you try. If everything is in order, proceed. The most cautious can play it safe, using drops that neutralize even a hint of redness in the eyes. These are always in the beauty arsenal of makeup artists who prepare the leading morning shows for the air. Thus, when the natural redness is neutralized, you will be much less likely to look tired or teary.
Keep in mind that if you are doing makeup with red shadows, then your face tone should be flawless. Use a fairly covering foundation – but at the same time, quite thin, blend it well with a damp sponge or duo-fiber brush. Be sure to correct the area around the eyes with a reflective concealer. And powder the base.
It is best to apply red shadows on a primer. If you want to try the most “light" option, then first blend matte taupe shadows in the crease of the upper eyelid, and then put a little accent with red shadows.
In fact, if you want to avoid possible eye pain due to red shadows, then apply them as far as possible from the inner corner of the eye. Thus, you can even make red smokey eyes. For example, blend red shadows in the crease of the upper eyelid, apply them – but with a lighter and thinner layer on the entire upper eyelid, and then draw the upper lash line with dark burgundy or black shadows and blend lightly. Be sure to apply a golden highlighter to the inner corners of your eyes. You can also apply a light beige pencil to the mucous membrane.
How to choose the right shades of red shades?

You can give preference, for example, to burgundy: with this shade, your makeup will look quite bright, but at the same time, the risk of fatigue and sore eyes is noticeably reduced.
Be sure to choose red shadows depending on your color type. If your color type is cold, then choose ruby shades, shades of marsala and burgundy, pure reds are also good. On “warm” girls, scarlet, bright brick, reddish shades will look perfect. To prevent red makeup from giving your eyes an inflamed look, you need to do something: therefore, the list of necessary cosmetics is not limited to just one palette of red shadows. One of the tricks is to bring the mucous membrane with a white kayal or at least a shade of nude with a shimmer. If you want 100% grunge, then you can use the classic black shade.
In general, if you approach this makeup wisely, it will look bright and spectacular – and without too much pain!
