Are you ready to rock a bold and dramatic makeup look? This goth eyeshadow tutorial will teach you how to create a dark and edgy look that’s perfect for a night out on the town or a special occasion.
Step 1: Prep your eyelids
Before you start adding eyeshadow, make sure that your eyelids are clean and dry. Apply a primer to help your eyeshadow stay in place and prevent creasing.
Step 2: Apply a base color
Choose a matte black eyeshadow and apply it to your entire eyelid, starting at your lash line and blending upwards towards your crease. Use a fluffy brush to blend the color evenly and make sure there are no harsh lines.
Step 3: Add dimension
Using a small eyeshadow brush, apply a dark purple or burgundy eyeshadow to your outer corner and blend it into the black eyeshadow. This will add depth and dimension to your eye look.
Step 4: Highlight your brow bone
Apply a shimmery white or silver eyeshadow to your brow bone to highlight and add contrast to your dark eyeshadow. Use a blending brush to soften any harsh lines.
Step 5: Line your eyes
Use a black eyeliner to line your upper lash line, making sure to create a winged effect at the outer corner of your eye. You can also line your lower lash line if you prefer a more dramatic look.
Step 6: Add mascara
Apply several coats of black mascara to your upper and lower lashes to complete your goth eyeshadow look.
Final Thoughts
With these simple steps, you can create a dark and edgy goth eyeshadow look that will turn heads wherever you go. Remember to blend your eyeshadow carefully and use a primer to keep your look in place all night long.
