Why do they do hand makeup?

We love how these look realistic. While seeing so many eyes drawn on hands, you probably wonder why they do this. Despite for being a wonderful way to express the creativity and being a kind of art, there is something else behind these staggering eyes. Makeup artists use this when they want to practice, or just see how colors will interact with each other. With having the details such as the eyebrows and eye color, you can see how a certain makeup look will look like a final result. This is a smart way of practicing, as it is easier to wipe your hand, rather than your eyes. Hand makeup is an excellent opportunity to try different techniques and styles. If you want to practice smokey eye or even cut crease, you can definitely give this method a try. Experiment with different colors and find the perfect combo. You can even slip in some extras, such as glitter.

How to do it?

If you want to give this trend a try, then feel free to do it. Even if it is your first time. To make things easier for you, these tips will help:

  • The same rules apply as for the face. Before you start the makeup, apply primer and foundation on the skin so the products will look and blend better.
  • Trace out the eye and eyebrow shape. Then you can work towards filling them.
  • Watch out for the details. Draw every single hair of the eyebrow with a thin brush.
  • The eye shadow techniques are the same as you would do them on the eye.
