How To Do The Easiest Glitter Eye Makeup Look

Struggle with creating the perfect cat-eye ? Need help grooming your own eyebrows ? The Huffington Post's "How-To" beauty tutorial series will show you exactly how to master these looks and more. In our latest video, we're showing you a simple and not-so-messy glitter eye makeup look. Get ready to get your shine on!

Yes, you can wear glitter makeup as a grown-up . The trick is in the technique!

When applying glitter eye makeup , keep the sparkle as close to your eyelids as possible. This gives off just the right amount of glimmer while blinking. Stray too high up toward your eyebrows and you'll look like a shiny disco ball.

To prevent glitter from falling all over your face, we recommend holding a tissue under your eye. Be sure to also use a wet brush to apply loose glitter. Intensify your look with a few coats of mascara, and voila!
