HOW TO APPLY EYESHADOW

1. Start with cleaning your face. This is a good base to start with. Your skin has to be clean before applying the makeup. Was your face with a cleanser before your begin. It will keep your skin from being greasy. Also if you want you could put some primer on your eyes so the makeup has something to stick on. Then you can apply concealer(also optional) for the dark circles under your eyes.

2. Choosing the right color. Picking a good color or brand can be tricky. There are so many options like powders, they are pigmented eyeshadows and difficult to apply. Or cream eyeshadows, they are much easier to pally and you can apply them very quickly. When looking for the right color you can look at your skin tone and see what matches your skin. Also looking at your eye color is good to see which color looks good on your eyes. If you want to have a natural look you can choose a palette with three shades in neutral tones. It will give you just that extra sparkle for your eyes. ;) Try the color blue, this is a color that really pops. It's nice for a party or when your going out but also on a daily basis. Blue goes the best with brown eyes because it's the opposite.

3. Apply eyeshadow. Apply a light color on your eyelid, from you eyelashes to your crease. Choose a color like soft pink or brown. If you choose a color in that direction your perfectly fine.Then apply a lighter color on your brown bone. Highlight that area, and choose a color like gold or something in those shades. Then at last apply a dark color at your crease, this can really be any color you prefer but a little in colors that you already used for the base. Go from the outer corner of your eye to you crease and do this with little strokes. When you have done this you can pick a fluffy brush or with your finger and you can blend and mix the colors on your eyelids. Then your ready to go!! ;)
