step by step

1

Start Audacious

Start with Eye Studio® Color Tattoo™ 24 Hour Cream Gel Shadow in Audacious Asphalt. Apply to the lid with a flat, synthetic brush, creating a smoky base. You want to cover your entire lid.

2

Be Tenacious

Give eyes a dramatic pop. Using the Tenacious Teal shade, start near the inner eye corner and layer shadow 1/3 of the way across the upper eyelid. Blend into Audacious Asphalt.

3

Get Bolder

At the outer corner of the lid, apply the Bold Gold shade. Blend over Tenacious Teal and slightly into Audacious Asphalt.

4

Stay Too Cool

Apply Too Cool to the inner tear duct region.

5

Finish Strong

Amp up the drama by drawing inside your water line with Eye Studio® Master Drama ™ Cream Pencil in Sapphire Strength. Using your brush, underline the pencil line with a bit more Tenacious Teal shadow. Blend. Repeat Steps 1-5 on other eye. For the ultimate touch, finish with Volum’ Express® The Falsies™ Flared™ Mascara.
