A simple technique to create a gradient effect with eyeshadow will have you looking glam in no time! All it takes is applying different shades of eyeshadows vertically on your lid, focusing darker colors at the outer corner and lighter ones towards the inner corner. Then simply blend using sweeping motions until everything looks blended together seamlessly.
That’s it.
We’re not exaggerating in the slightest. The Tik-Tokers of today are literally just like anyone else trying to figure out the best eyeshadow hacks. And, we’re all (even the professionals) taking notes because the results are stunning.
Easy Eyeshadow Hack Tutorial
To start, you’re going to want to grab two eyeshadow brushes: a flat and blender brush. You also need at least three eyeshadow colors to create that pretty gradient look on your eyes.
Step 1: Sweep your darkest colored eyeshadow on the outer eyelid in a vertical line with your flat brush.
Step 2: Place your next lightest color next to the dark shade in the same vertical placement.
Step 3: Same with your next lightest shade. Add as many colors as you want, just make sure they go from dark to light and outside in.
Step 5: Use your blender brush and gently sweep over the colors—they’ll blend together seamlessly. Make sure to focus on the crease of your eye as well (and don’t go up any higher).
Want Another Easy Eye Makeup Hack?
Here’s how we finished off this TikTok eyeshadow hack and elevated it even more with Lashies. If you’ve never tried Lashies false lashes, you’re missing out! This two second lash application requires zero dry time and has no glue or metals. It’s perfect for anyone who experiences sensitivity to fake eyelashes.
Apply your Lashies Liner:
Trace your lash line with the black or clear Lashies Liner. In this tutorial…we chose black. For an extra natural, lash-extension look, choose clear.
Place on Lashes:
While your liner is still wet, place on your Lashies. The NanoGrip™ Lash Technology on the lash band instantly grips to the Lashies liner for an optimal bond that’ll last up to 24 hours. Plus, you can get up to 25 uses from each Lashies lashes with proper care.
In our (not so) humble opinion, this lash hack and eyeshadow blending Tik-Tok trend are the perfect easy eye makeup pairing.
