If you are a woman who likes to be able to have great looking eyes with the eyeshadow you are wearing then you will want to know which the best base is to wear. If you have oily skin then it is going to be hard to get your eye makeup to stay on without cracking or looking bad. It is highly recommended that no matter what skin type you have to use a primer before applying the base. Although there are several different ones that you can use there is one that a lot of women are saying is the best.

Just so that you are clear on exactly what base eyeshadow is, it is the color that you apply right before you apply the main color that you want on your eyes. The base is what gives the main color the foundation to make your eyes “pop” rather than just look normal. The base that many women prefer to use is the color that best matches your skin. Think of the base as a foundation for the color to build on. The base color will also help stop the shadow from cracking throughout the day but primer is still recommended.

Many women do not apply their eyeshadow the most effective way. There are some who do not use a base color before applying the main color and are wondering why their shadow keeps cracking up or does not look like it is supposed to. If you want an extra effect try applying a color on top of the base that is lighter than the main color that you are going to be using. This will help to make the main color stand out more and will give the shadow a fading effect that will look very nice. If you want to use the best base then match up the color that is closest to the color of your skin.
