• When choosing eyeshadows, you should consider your skin tone as well as your eye color. Don't try to match your eyeshadow with your eyes or your clothes.

• Apply the base color on your eyelids first to open and brighten your eyes, then medium color to give slight depth to your eyes and the most intensive color to shape your eyes. Blend well.

• While applying eyeshadow you should remember - light shades make your eyes visually bigger and wider while dark shades make your eyes visually smaller and deeper set.

• Always blend well for more natural look without harsh edges.

• To prevent eyeshadow from creasing, apply the foundation before eyeshadow application.

• Powder eyeshadows can be used wet for more intensity.
