1. Start with a clean eye-space; if you fill-in your brows, you’re welcome to do them now [or later].

2. Use the 249 and take several swipes of Soft Ochre paint pot and begin to apply it to the lid.

3. Pull it outwards to be able to cover your entire lid area.

4. This is what it should look like.

5. With the 239 brush, pick up a generous amount of Blanc Type eyeshadow and apply to the inner lid.

6. Make sure to cover the entire portion of the inner portion of the lid.

7. This is what it should look like. If you are darker in skintone, you may want to modify the colors by deepening them by 2-3 shades so they don’t appear chalky on you! The concept of this look is that the colors are similar to your natural skin tone, but a bit lighter.

8. Still using the 239 brush, pick up Bisque eyeshadow and apply to the middle of lid, starting just above the crease and pulling the brush downwards.

9. Pull the color downwards to evenly color the entire middle portion of the lid.

10. This is what it looks like.

11. Apply Soft Brown eyeshadow using the 239 brush to the outer third of the lid.

12. Pull the brush downwards to cover the entire outer third.

13. Pick up more Soft Brown eyeshadow and apply it to the outer crease to darken and define it.

14. Gently pull the brush outwards so help blend Soft Brown into your crease.

15. This is what you should have.

16. With your 239 brush, apply Blanc Type eyeshadow on your browbone–or choose another matte highlighter color.

17. Smooth it over the entire brow bone.

18. This is what it looks like right now.

19. Lightly line your lower lash line (or water line as shown) with black eyeliner (I used Feline kohl power).

20. Apply black or brown mascara (brown for a more neutral look) to upper and lower lashes. I used Plushblack plushlash mascara here. This is your finished eye.

21. With your 239 brush, apply Brun eyeshadow into the outer crease.

22. Pull your brush outwards, holding it horizontally, to blend the color into the crease.

23. This is what you have–and that’s all there is to it! Brun is a darker brown with some gray in it, so it lends more contrast to the look.

“Subtle Smoky Eye for the Evening Out”

24. With the 239 brush, apply Carbon eyeshadow to the outer crease to darken it.

25. Brush it outwards to help blend the colors together.

26. Make sure you to darken the outer lid.

27. This is what it looks like at this point.

28. Add heavier black liner and go over lashes with a quick fix of mascara (be easy, and just do one coat to darken it from applying additional shadows over it).

“Deeper Smoky Eye for Evening Out”

29. Apply Silver Ring eyeshadow to the outer half of the lid.

30. Blend it outwards.

31. This is what it looks like here.

32. Apply Vex eyeshadow to the inner half of the lid.

33. Brush outwards to blend into the Silver Ring eyeshadow.

34. This is what it looks like here.

35. Apply Vex eyeshadow to the lower lash line using the 219 brush.

36. Keep the brush directly under your water line.

37. This is what it looks like when finished. You can re-do mascara if you choose to (but since I’ve already gone back for the subtle look, any more mascara coats would be bad!!) as well as go over the lower lash line. Add black liner to your upper lash line for a more dramatic look, too!
