- 1). Pat regular foundation across the entire eyelid and under-eye area before using any shadow. This primes the lid as a base so the shadow will stick.

Dip the tip of the small angled makeup brush that is damp into the darkest shadow in the palette, usually a rich dark brown or black color. Draw a thin line with the shadow across your lower and upper eyelash lines. - 3). Look up and blink your eyes before the liner shadow dries to create a mark in the crease of your eyelid. Between this crease and the rest of your eyelid, apply the contouring shadow, which is the second darkest shadow on the palette (usually a dark coppery color).

Rub the second lightest shadow from the palette, usually the softest color, above the creases and up to the brow bones. This works as a highlighter. - 5). Apply the very lightest color from the palette, usually a creamy, pearly white, around the corners of your eyes to reflect light and make them seem larger.
- 6). Trace over the original liner shadow one more time with the darkest color on the palette, and smudge it with a cotton swab to make a smoky effect.
- 7). Brush off fallen shadow from the under eye area, than curl your eyelashes and coat on dark black mascara.
