2. Customizing Undertones, Shades & Proportions
Welcome to Part 2 of my breakdown on Women's Maven Basic Beat Eyeshadow Palette.
Before you lock in your final formula or outfit pairing, here is how I adapt the tones and textures for each client.
Pin Look
Finding Your Most Flattering Version
For fair skin with cool undertones, stick to the lighter taupes and skip the deeper browns—they can pull muddy.
On deeper or golden skin, lean into the warm bronze and espresso shades; they’ll pop without looking ashy.
Always test the darkest shade on your jawline first.
If you prefer a more editorial look, swap the satin shade for a metallic pressed pigment on the center of the lid.
And use the matte brown as a soft liner along the lower lash line.
For a classic prom vibe, keep the shimmer on the inner corner and blend the mattes outward.
That’s my signature trick.
✦ Which Finish Fits Your Vibe?
- Velvet Rose-Gold Glow: Effortless, soft-focus dimension that flatters every skin tone in daytime or candlelight.
- High-Impact Statement Finish: Crisp lines, rich pigment payoff, and bold contrast for evening events or street-style photos.
- Balanced Proportions: Keep one feature bold while letting the surrounding textures stay airy and breathable.
