Hi, this is Kristie Kennedy, professional makeup artist. Today, we're going to discuss how to do glitz makeup on dark skin. When doing glitz makeup, if you want to stand out on the stage, you've got to go glitz. Let's start. The tools you'll need to accomplish this look, a nice glitter eye shadow and your eye shadow flat brush. Let's play. Our first step is to apply an even tone base on our eyelid, short strokes from the left to the right, go about midway up. Your color should thin out as it gets closer to the brow. And do the same for your other eye. This bright color opens up the eye and gives you that awakening look, vibrant. And that is your first step. Our second step is to apply glitter to the eyelid. Now this is major eye candy, stay inside the crease, wow. And do the same for the other eye, gently slow back and forth motions, stay in the crease. Get ready to dazzle them. And that is your second step. And that is how you do glitz makeup for dark skin. Remember our take home product, glitter. This is Kristie Kennedy. Thank you for watching.
