I'm using a brick red shimmer eyeshadow this one is from MUA but use whatever brand you like cover the whole eyelid with this shadow I tend to go just below brow bone with my colour but it's up to you

I'm an mua who is all about the blending I hate to see harsh lines with no blend between colours!!  Now between the biscuit brow bone colour and the brick red I've blended a line of muted gold pigment

This look works because it's about clashing colours but it does look effective and striking when finished.  In the waterline I'm adding a turquoise kohl liner.

There you go a bold teal/aqua line along my waterline.  I have to say not everyone is comfortable putting liner along this line but it's so striking when you do it.

So because pigment is über messy I never do my base first always start on the eyes so I allow the powder to fall on my face knowing i can just wipe away when I'm done with a facial wipe.

@Camille - Wow, there is no need to be rude or disrespectful to people, especially when they're nice enough to post tutorials on how they do things. You need to go away and learn some manners... Oh, and take a look at yourself in the mirror before you go making stupid unnecessary comments about others. - @Cathryn - That was great! It looks really nice and I can't wait to try it :). I don't normally like putting too many colors on my eyes but this one looks like it will come out nice and you made it look very easy to do.
