Smokey Eye, Halo Eye & Cut Crease
Dramatic eye looks thrive on technique, precision and a good feel for shapes. In this subject, you will focus on three expressive eye make-up variations: smokey eye, halo eye and cut crease.
First, you will learn to recognize and analyse different eye shapes. You will learn what influence the eyelid crease, eyebrow arch, lash line and eye distance have on the effect of a look. It's not just about "recreating" a style, but also about understanding which look supports which eye shape. When does a halo eye open up the gaze? When is a smokey eye flattering and when is it oppressive? How do you create a cut crease so that the eye is clearly defined?
You will then work through the looks step by step. You will learn how to build up colors, blend transitions softly and draw clean lines. The sequence, product consistency and brush technique are important here - small details with a big effect. You will practise all three variations in detail and then apply them creatively. You can experiment with color intensity, textures and shimmer to adapt the looks to different types and occasions.
The aim of this unit is for you to not only be able to apply eye makeup, but also to understand and consciously create it. This will enable you to create looks that emphasize eye shape, enhance expression and reveal personality.
