I’ve gotten so many requests to do tutorials and because I’m not entirely ready for YouTube yet, I thought a pictorial would be the next best thing! I have quite hooded lids, so I thought this would be the most helpful for my monolid/hooded lid ladies!
1.) Apply a base. I used the matte cream shade from the Be A Bombshell Quad in Madrid all over the lid.
2.) Create definition in the crease with a matte medium brown eyeshadow and use a fluffy brush to blend the shadow into your crease or where your imaginary crease might be.
3.) Add more definition using a darker brown shade in the outer third of your lid with a small flat eyeshadow brush. It doesn’t have to be neat, just pack the color on. Here, I used the darkest brown shade in the Be A Bombshell Quad.
4.) Blend away!
5.) This is the eye look so far. 🙂
6.) Use a dark brown eyeliner in your lower waterline and lash line.
7.) Smudge the darkest brown eyeshadow from the palette into the liner using a small eyeshadow brush.
8.) Add some subtle shimmer onto the lid using the coral shimmery shade and blend.
9.) This is the eye look so far and you’re nearly there!
10.) Add some highlight to the inner tear duct with the gold shade from the Quad and then in the bottom inner third of the eye, apply the coral shimmery shade for additional brightening.
11.) This is the eye look almost done.
12.) Add a winged liner and apply mascara and you’re done!

It’s beautiful! Simple and natural. I will use everything except the falsies. Can’t get used to with them. Great job.
