you can choose from a range of colours,from dark brown,to charcoal or full-on black,the darker your hair is the better you will look with the black/charcoal although i’ve seen blondes rock the dark look for contrast.
1. go over the entired lid with a neutral colour that’s as close to your natural skin colour as possible.
2. using a small,pointy brush,carefully place the darkest shade in the crease of your eye,you may extend the line in a “v” shape past the lids for a cat-eyed effect…make sure the lines blend in,you don’t want the harsh look.
3. using a bigger brush,fill in [make sure to blend !!] the space between the crease and the lid.
4. for added effect some people make a very fine line with their eyeliner to rim both the top and bottom lids. or they run,with a fine tipped brush,the eye shadow under their lower lids,if you have dark circles skip this step since it would only emphasise them and make you look like a racoon [i have first hand experience of this lol]
5. using a shimmery shade [white or silver] highlight [with ur pinky finger] the area just underneath your eyebrow for added,subtle contrast and to lift the eye. using a q-tip,add this highlighter-shade to the inner corners as well.
make sure to keep the blush natural and lips bare and to comb your eyebrows for a polished look [eyebrow wax works great or even a tiny bit of vaseline].practise first to make sure it rocks before you leave the house and hope you look hot !
