Eye shadowing

• After applying the base hold the eyebrow up and blend some translicent powder on the eye backwards and forewards. Touch it to ensure that it's not steaky.
• Put an abundant amount of translucent powder under the eye as near the eye as you can, beacuse if the eyeshadow bits fall over that part you can easly remove it(brushing them away)
• Using the same brush, scrape a bit of eyeshadow on the artist's pallette
• Get your powder(eyeshadow) and put it on the back of the hand- in this way the excess will come off
• Start with the lightest color. Go right up backwards and forwards.You can also highlight the part under the eyebrows with the same color
• Take a darker color and put it on the back of your hand to make the excess come off and then go backwards and forwards on the edge of the eye. You can also go into the socket of the eye. Look through the mirror to see if you got it right in the socket.
• For the eyeliner: Use an angled brush. Wet the brush, mix with an dark color till it will become a paste. Strech up and do the line along the edge of the lash. Go also along the low lashline. Do not open the eye if you use a liquid eyeliner, until it's dry.
  The eyeliner defines the eye and thickens the eyelash
• Brush away the powder which is under the eye
• For the mascara: Get a mascara wand. You can ONLY use it ONCE (in and out).
  You go down on the top to get the residue out, then right from the root go upwards. On the Bottom it's easier if you go across wiggling.
  If you get mascara on the face, take a cotton bud and some transluscent powder and remove it straight away. Do not let it dry.
• With a natural color clean through the eyebrows from the powder.
