Shimmer Makeup For Daytime: How To Make It Work

It’s hard to find a shimmer makeup look that suits you for the daytime. Since most shimmer eye shadow looks are often worn at night for events or parties, a lot of women are confused as to how to use their stash of sparkly cosmetics for daytime events. If you’re looking to switch up the glam without going overboard then there are a couple of tips to keep in mind to help you create the ideal glam look during the day and even amp it up later on at night.

Eyes 

Adding shimmer makeup to your eyes is quite simple and you can add a range of tones from nude to golden hues and more that are ideal for the office or any daytime event. Use shimmer eyeliner to match your eye color or even a golden one to highlight your eyes.

Lips 

For a day look, you can play up your lips with some glitter lip shade or metallic or matte lipstick and dab a bit of glitter on it. While some people prefer to finish their look with some shimmer eyeliner you can always let your lips do the talking and keep the rest of your look simple.

Cheeks 

Along with the best glitter eyeshadow you can also use a highlighter on the highest point of your cheeks and blend well. Make sure that the shade of your highlighter matches your skin type and tone along with your foundation and try to use a little at first and then if needed, you can add more. You can even highlight other high points of your face. 

Body 

If you want to head for an event looking like a sun-kissed goddess, then along with the best glitter eyeshadow palette you can shimmer up your body as well. Mix a little glitter into your body lotion and apply it. Make sure that the glitter is powdered very fine and blends in effortlessly. You can also invest in a glitter body lotion that comes with shimmer and can be easy to put on and blend into your skin.

Nails 

Nails are easy, and you can either choose an accent nail shade with glitter art or pick a glittery nail polish. Some people even choose chrome, dual-toned, or unicorn nails or gel nail paint that has specs of glitter in them. Depending on your skin tone you can opt for lighter pink, nude, or peach shades or darker red and mauve shades to enhance your outfit.  

In Conclusion  

When it comes to glitter, it’s all about creating the right balance. For a daytime look, choose neutral shades that complement your clothing and the event without overpowering it. For oily skin try to choose Viseart matte shades that add depth and for dry skin, you can pick sheer and dewy shades that offer you a radiant glow. Always try out your shades before the big event so that you know which colors perfectly match your skin.
