<blockquote><p><strong>For eyes,</strong> start by applying <em>Smudgeproof</em> as your eyeshadow base all over the eye area with the 249.    With the 242, apply <em>Clear Sky Blue pigment</em> onto the lid with water-based mixing medium.  Using the 239, apply <em>Aquarius eyeshadow</em> on the inner third of the lid and pull upwards along the inner crease. Lightly blend <em>Dashiki eyeshadow</em> on the middle of the lid with the 239.  Next, apply <em>Atlantic Blue eyeshadow </em>into the crease with the 226, lightly blending onto the outer lid. Define the crease with <em>Atlantic Blue eyeshadow</em> and the 226.  Blend <em>Brule eyeshadow</em> with the crease shade and highlight the brow bone. Bring everything together by applying <em>Deviant liner </em>on the lower lash line., and then smudging <em>Atlantic Blue eyeshadow</em> on the lower lash line.  Finish by sweeping lashes with <em>Plushlash mascara</em>.</p>
<p><strong>For cheeks,</strong> apply <em>Sugarbomb blush</em> on the apples of the cheeks and sweep upwards towards the temple with the 116.</p>
