Soft to full.
Siren Eye Makeup
An elongated, sultry eye with the emphasis drawn out horizontally rather than up.
Written by Lamyaa Aissi, professional makeup artist, Casablanca.
Where it sits
Soft to full.
Soft glam is not simply less full glam — the intent is different. It aims at polished; full glam aims at transformed and camera-ready. Deciding which is wanted before the first product goes on saves the whole session.
The technique it depends on
The outward extension, kept low. Lifting it turns it into a cat eye.
On Moroccan skin, in a Moroccan climate
Deep warm tones extend better on olive and deeper skin than cool greys.
One rule carries across every look on this site: check undertone rather than depth. Olive and golden skin greys against neutral and pink-based products however well the depth matches.
When it is the wrong choice
Anyone wanting a lifted look.
