How to Apply Neon Electric Makeup

Electric neon makeup involves intense shades so you need to be very smart when applying it. The key is to stay away from blending shadows too far from the creases.

If you want to pull-off this makeup look, it’s best to create a focal point and use minimal makeup for the other areas. Here are some tips for you:

High-impact, bold lips

Rather than use the classic red color on your lips, you can go for fuchsia or coral orange shades to make it more exciting. Choose one with a matte formula which is a lot easier to control. Then keep the balance by making the rest of your face dewy.

Noticeable blush

The trend these days is to use the blush to highlight your face instead of mimicking a flush. Place the color high on your cheekbones to draw the attention to your face’s outer planes. Just apply the makeup lightly though, so your skin still shows through. To make your cheekbones noticeable, apply some bright lipstick on your cheeks.

Play with your polish

When it comes to the trend of bright colors, you can’t go wrong with nail polish. If you want a flattering hue, check the undertones of your skin. Blues and pinks work well with cool skin tones while yellows and oranges work well for those with warmer complexions.
