  • 01 Makeup artist Camille Thompson applies matte foundation by Maybelline.

    Thompson completed the eyeshadow look with three pink/neutral shades from our Nudes of New York Eyeshadow Palette. First, blend Protector above the natural crease line, dragging color out and upwards. Then, apply Explorer at the outer edges of the crease to lift the eye shape up, and beneath the lash line again, blending color up towards where your brows end. Apply Dreamer in the center of the lids to create a bigger, more open-looking eye.
