BUILD YOUR COLOUR AND BLEND

-

Once you’ve applied your base shade, slowly build on it by adding different textures and colours. Think of your lids like a rainbow, seamlessly blending from light to dark to light again.

Dark colours attract light, so placing darker pigments in the crease of the eye makes your eyes pop by adding dimension. Using a rounded blending brush, sweep the colour into the crease using a soft circular motion for flawless applicatio­n.

If you feel your eyes still need more colour, take the lightest colour in your palette and blend it in just above your crease.

Another universal trick is to apply either a highlighte­r or the lightest colour of the palette to the inner corners of your eyes. This will instantly brighten your eye area and make them seem more awake.
