This hue is ideal for anyone with greeny-blue, gray, or hazel skin, naturally highlighting any glimmers of green in the eyes.

When playing with a cut crease, applying a little shimmer to your eyeshadow will guarantee a beautiful look that will make your eyes pop. The trick is to apply it to the eyelids themselves when it comes to glitter. Just make sure that the cut crease eyeshadow uses a much darker version of the color since this will add depth and help the sparkles stand out.
4. Brown Cut Crease

A nude lid certainly enhances and defines the cut crease in the most dramatic and beautiful way. For the cut crease, you use a contrasting brown eyeshadow that creates a sharp line that’s not then blended. That way, the eyes appear more open and lifted. Finish the overall look with dark brown lipstick and you are good to go.
4. Red Cut Crease

Looking for a sultry, bold and ultimately high fashion makeup look? Turn heads with a striking red cut crease.

Although this look is generally not for beginners, you’ll get it perfected in no time with a few easy steps and a little practice. This style involves three separate parts, but it is called the ‘double’ cut crease. This involves the eyelids, the region of the split crease, and the skin above this space. We prefer the double cut crease for a style right off the runway.

Although a cut crease can be the ultimate make-up pattern to play with colors and sparkle, for a subtle, beautiful look, it can also be toned down. Aim for a nude cut crease when you want a simple way to highlight your skin. Then, with winged green eyeliner, incorporate a little more glamor.
