Pratica di Shadowing: Colorful eyeshadow Do's and Don'ts - Impara a parlare inglese con i video

uh hey guys

so today i'm going to be showing you how to blend

colorful eyeshadow i'm going to be showing you what not to do

and also what to do

which would probably be the important part huh really quick before

we get started my friend launched this dope nose piece with

uh the brand called readymade i'm going to link them down

below in case you want to check them out it's sick

so the palette

that i'm going to be using today is the culture palette from juvia's place ju juvia's place uh

which is sick i was on ulta.com and i saw it

and i was like i need it so i got it

uh and this is what i'm going to be using um all right

so i already primed my eyelids with my dominique cosmetics primer

so if you're not familiar we're going to talk a base

if you're not familiar we're going to talk basics really quick

so the color wheel is really going to be helpful here

uh we have three primary colors those are yellow red

and blue okay then we have three secondary colors those are green purple

and orange uh you get green by mixing yellow

and blue you get orange by mixing yellow

and red you get purple by mixing blue and red okay

so those are like the basic colors

that you want to know about the cat is trying to

get in it's very annoying the opposite colors on the on the color wheel are complementary colors uh

which when put next to each other

when placed next to each other are going to make each other pop

so if you take blue

and you put it next to orange they're opposite colors on

the color wheel they're really going to bring each other out conversely

if you mix those two colors they will neutralize each other

so if you have a blue

and you mix it with an orange it's going to end

up turning into like essentially a brown it ends up being neutral same with yellow

and purple some same with red and green so whatever the opposite on the color wheel is, is going to neutralize, which is one of the reasons

that people use a green color corrector if they have redness on their face, or if they have like blue tone under their eyes, they'll use a peach color corrector.

Now I'm going to use the example of yellow and purple, which in my personal opinion are the worst complementary colors.

I just like do not like them at all.

And when mixed, they can look real gross, all right?

So that's what we're gonna be doing.

In the culture palette, I'm gonna be using this shade right here, which I can't read because it's behind, it's in front of me right now.

This matte purple.

And then I have this yellow up here.

Naira, Nairaland?

So I'm gonna start off with my Refer01 brush.

I'm gonna pick up that purple

and I'm going to start packing this on the outer part of the lid and then slowly blend it on the lid,

working it into the crease.

So just building up that color, focusing it in the outer corner and blending it around the eye.

now i'm grabbing my rougher 15 brush a slightly larger fluffy brush

and i'm going to dip into that yellow shade this is what you don't want to do now watch what happens

when i start blending over that purple see how we got brown

now I mean in my humble opinion this isn't the worst thing I think it's kind of edgy

and cool but like it might not be what you're going for you know what I mean

so I'm going to show you on the other side how to make it a little bit more attractive

so when you're working with complementary colors you want to use the color wheel to your advantage right

so if I'm trying to gradiate from a purple to a yellow, I want to look at the colors that are between those shades.

So if I'm looking at the color wheel right now, if we're moving towards yellow, um, going, well, I mean, it depends on which side you're going,

but like maybe I want the progression to be a little bit warmer.

Maybe I want to start moving towards the pinks and then the oranges to get to the yellow.

I could also move from the purple to the blues, uh, into the greens and then to the yellows.

Okay.

Today I'm going to be going with the reds and things.

So I'm going to go from that purple.

On on the other side I'm gonna do the exact same thing once again focusing on the outer part

and then blending in and up to the crease alright

so let's look at the color wheel so now

if we're going in the like the reds direction we want to get to

that purple next I could pick up red I could pick

up pink I don't want to jump too quickly into like a yellow orange

because you can kind of end up with the exact same problem.

So you want to make sure that you are progressing.

Okay.

So what I'm going to do is pick up a clean, fluffy brush.

This is the, this is a pretty large one.

This is the Ruffer 27 brush.

And I'm going to grab a pink color, this color right here, which is this nice kind of like medium toned pink.

So you can see the purple.

Now we're jumping to this pink as we work our way towards the yellow.

And now I'm going to go over that outer part of the purple.

So we're creating a gradient.

You want to create a gradient into those colors.

I'm going to bring this onto the lid and buff into the crease.

all right using another brush now I'm going to move in to start moving into the orange shade

so I'm gonna get a little bit closer

and I'm going to pick up this is Delta this shade right here

which is a little bit more of a salmon

so it's got a little bit of red a little you can kind of see like the difference between Delta

and Kobo now another thing that you can do is kind of like mix

so this is like a little bit more red toned I can tap actually you know I am going to do that.

I'm going to tap between this one, Delta, and this one right here, which is getting a little bit closer to that yellow.

So I'm going to mix those two shades, and then I'm going to use that out here.

So not touching the purple at all, blending around that pink.

Taking it into the inner part, up to the brow.

Going back in with that pink because it started to disappear a little bit.

Now finally, I'm going to go in with that yellow.

And I'm going to use this on the very outer part, blending all around that orange.

you obviously don't have to get like as smoked out as i'm being right now you just use smaller brushes

but if we're doing color i want to do color you know what i mean all right guys

100

so obviously you can see a pretty gigantic difference between the

101

colors over here it looks very muddy um you know it

102

when it blends together it just ends up creating

103

that like brown color so it's going to be super flattering so when

104

if you're having a hard time blending colors at all keep

105

in mind the color wheel it's a lot easier to kind of like follow

106

that progression to get to those colors uh now i personally think

107

that this yellow probably would have blended really nicely with the pink

108

so you don't necessarily have to use like so many steps

109

but you don't want to jump too quickly from a purple into its complementary color

110

which is yellow and same with blue and orange same with red

111

and green uh all right guys

112

so i finished off the look it got really smoky

113

and i love it i really hope this was helpful uh

114

i know this was this is like a little bit more advanced as far as like blending color color specifically

115

if you're interested i have other videos on like just blending neutrals blending shimmer

116

and those will be linked down below if i remember

117

if not harass me uh but yeah i hope this was helpful let me know

118

if you want to see more colors like

119

if you want to see green and red i hate doing that because christmas um or like blue and orange

120

or just like i don't know more if you just have color suggestions

121

if you're like i have a hard time blending these colors um this is kind of the basics of blending color

122

so yeah hope it was helpful let me know and uh yeah i'll see you soon

Cos'è la tecnica dello Shadowing?

Shadowing è una tecnica di apprendimento delle lingue supportata da studi scientifici, originariamente sviluppata per la formazione dei traduttori professionisti e resa popolare dal poliglotta Dr. Alexander Arguelles. Il metodo è semplice ma potente: ascolti un audio in inglese di madrelingua e lo ripeti immediatamente ad alta voce — come un'ombra che segue il parlante con un ritardo di solo 1–2 secondi. A differenza dell'ascolto passivo o degli esercizi di grammatica, lo shadowing costringe il tuo cervello e i muscoli della bocca a elaborare e riprodurre simultaneamente i modelli di discorso reale. La ricerca dimostra che migliora significativamente la precisione della pronuncia, l'intonazione, il ritmo, il discorso connesso, la comprensione dell'ascolto e la fluidità del parlato — rendendolo uno dei metodi più efficaci per la preparazione alla prova di speaking dell'IELTS e per la comunicazione reale in inglese.
