Start by priming your lids. This will create a nice even surface to apply the eyeshadow.

Here is the finished makeup look. I love how my eyes are nicely framed with the mascara and the eyeshadow.


The two shades of brown eyeshadow are gorgeous neutral colors that compliment my natural skin tone.

    I am a retired model and this is close to how I was taught. But please let me be completely honest with you….You don’t need the top liner. It actually makes you look older and your eyes darker and smaller. Therefore you look tired. Now that I’m older I forgo the top liner & use a very thin brown liner on the bottom. I also no longer go for the darker dramatic look because I’m nearly 56 and I’m starting to get fine lines and loose skin and it doesn’t look cute when it gets all bunched up. It definitely adds 5+ years to us. I go for a fresher cleaner look so I don’t look I’m trying to cover up the fact that I’m aging. When going out or celebrating I do go darker than my daily wear make up. But I still stay away from dark liner and heavy mascara. Anyway that’s my 2cents on it anyway.
