Eyes
The key here is to keep your eyes very natural looking. Begin by applying an eyeshadow a shade darker than your natural skin color to the crease of your eyes. Blend well with a good eyeshadow brush.
Using a Brown eye pencil, line the upper lashes and line the lower lashes by applying 3 dots and then blending well. Apply a lightweight mascara to upper & lower lashes. And finally, apply a tinted eyebrow gel to the brows – using just enough to fill in gaps & provide light color.
