YOUR PERSONAL EYE SHADOW APPLICATION – CHART 1: � You will use a highlighter and a deeper shade on your eyes. � Highlighters are generally white or cream and shades there of. � Eye shadows are usually neutral shades of browns and greys or colours if you are feeling
more adventurous. Step 1: After concealing and powdering your eye area – apply highlighter under your eyebrow bone. By highlighting you enhance the bone, creating the illusion of lift. Step 2: Also highlight your entire eye lid area from left to right. This will create the illusion of more lid space and open and freshen up your eyes.

Step 3: Now apply your eye shadow shade through the crease of your eyes. Make sure the shadow travels through your crease area and slightly above – so when your eyes are open the eye shadow ‘grows’ up and out of the crease area, creating a ‘pushing back’ illusion. Tuck your eye shadow into the corner of your eyes in a rounded pattern towards the outside corner. Make sure the most smoky/blended section of your eye shadow is the top area, where the shading meets the highlighter.
Here is a close up example of exactly where your highlighter and shading needs to be applied.
An important tip: your eye shadow application travels in a rounded pattern on the outside corner of the eyes – it does not extend past the end of the eyes.

Have a look at your eye shadow application from more of a distance.
When the eyes are open this is how your eye shadow should look. Although there is a distinct difference between the highlighter and the shading and they are both in very specific areas, note that they blend together gradually, leaving no hard unblended edges.
