Mateo Beauty Multichrome Eyeshadow in shade Vibes

Hey everyone! I'm so excited to chat about one of my current obsessions: the Mateo Beauty Multichrome Eyeshadow in the shade 'Vibes'. When I first saw this shade, I knew I had to have it – the way it shifts colors is just mesmerizing in photos! But once I got it home, I realized getting that intense, multi-dimensional look wasn't as straightforward as just swiping it on. Like many of you, my first thought was, "How do I even use this properly to get the full effect?" After a lot of trial and error (and a few looks that were... less than dazzling), I've finally cracked the code on how to apply the Mateo Beauty Multichrome Eyeshadow 'Vibes' to really make those colors pop and shift beautifully. So, I wanted to share my personal tips and tricks so you can master it too! Prep is Your Best Friend (Seriously!) Before I even think about touching the multichrome, I always start with an eye primer. This is non-negotiable for me, especially with a multichrome shade like 'Vibes'. A good primer creates a sticky base that helps the pigment adhere better, prevents creasing, and really intensifies that color-shifting magic. I usually go for a slightly tacky primer – it just grips the shimmer so much better. My Go-To Application Methods for Mateo Beauty Multichrome Eyeshadow The Finger Method (My Top Pick!): This is, without a doubt, my favorite way to apply 'Vibes' for maximum impact. I just tap my ring finger directly into the pan and then gently press (don't swipe!) the product onto my eyelid. The warmth of your finger helps to melt the product slightly, allowing for a super intense, opaque application. This method really brings out the full spectrum of shifts in the multichrome. The Flat, Dense Brush (For Precision): Sometimes, I need a bit more precision, especially if I'm applying it to the inner corner or along the lower lash line. For this, I use a small, flat, synthetic brush. I'll pick up the product with the brush and again, pat it onto the desired area. Avoid blending too much with this type of shadow; you want to lay down the pigment, not diffuse it. The Damp Brush Trick (For Extra Sparkle!): If I'm going for an even more metallic, almost foiled look, I'll lightly mist my flat brush with a setting spray before picking up the Mateo Beauty Multichrome Eyeshadow. This turns the shadow into an intense, almost liquid metal finish. Be gentle with this method, and make sure your brush isn't soaking wet, just damp. Building Your Look with 'Vibes' For a Subtle Pop: If I want just a hint of that multichrome magic, I'll apply a thin layer with my finger over a neutral matte base. It adds a beautiful, unexpected glimmer without being too over the top. For Full Drama: To really make 'Vibes' shine, I'll use a darker, matte eyeshadow as a base (think a deep brown or black) in my crease and outer corner. Then, I'll pack on the Mateo Beauty Multichrome Eyeshadow all over my lid using the finger method. The darker base really helps the multichrome shifts stand out even more! Pairing it Up: I love how 'Vibes' looks paired with a simple black winged liner. It lets the multichrome be the star of the show. Sometimes, I'll even use it as a pop on the center of my lid over a smoky eye for an extra dimension. Final Thoughts & Tips: Minimize Fallout: Multichrome shadows can sometimes have a bit of fallout. I always do my eye makeup before my foundation when I'm using 'Vibes'. That way, any stray glitter can be easily wiped away without messing up my base. Don't Overblend: These shadows are designed to be packed on, not blended out heavily. Excessive blending can dull the multichrome effect. I really hope these tips help you get the most out of your Mateo Beauty Multichrome Eyeshadow 'Vibes'! It's such a unique and stunning product, and once you get the hang of applying it, you'll be obsessed with the magical look it creates.
