Step 1 of 28

The black and blue can be substituted for brown or any other color for a more natural look

Step 2 of 28

Eye primer makes the eye shadow stay on all day without creasing. I prefer Shadow Insurance from Sephora, 18 bucks

Step 3 of 28

Rub it all over, especially under your eye

Step 4 of 28

Choose the darkest color you plan to use for this step

Step 5 of 28

Angle your brush and sweep downward a few times UNDERNEATH the waterline about halfway. (Or a bit less for more natural)

Step 6 of 28

Do the same for the top, but only 1/3 of the way across. Drag the brush towards the center but try to keep it closest to your waterline

And at that little pocket beside your nose

Step 15 of 28

And at the corner of your eye

Step 16 of 28

Looks like this

Step 17 of 28

Pull apart a q tip

Step 18 of 28

Lightly roll it around in the dark color you initially used (or if going natural just use a neutral color)

Step 19 of 28

If you chose a dark color lightly run the Q tip along your crease line in the center downwards following the crease

Step 20 of 28

Step 21 of 28

Color in the rest of the lid with a grey, blue or brown for smokey or neutral for natural. If you chose to go dark, use the Q tip method, or a cotton ball if it is too dark to pull some of it off

Step 22 of 28

Step 23 of 28

The cotton ball cleans it up, or you can use it to drag the smokiness higher towards your brow

Step 24 of 28

Step 25 of 28

Give yourself cheekbones by pulling up and out

Step 26 of 28

Step 27 of 28

There. Natural look! Smokey works great like this too. Good luck !

Step 28 of 28

You're Done!
