1. Prep.
Begin with clean, moisturized skin. Tweeze any stray brows. Use an angled brush Sherri’s Brow Balm in Brunette to fill in and correct eyebrow shape. For extra drama, be sure to emphasize the arch.
2. Shadow Primer.
Use a concealer brush, apply Urban Decay’s shadow primer in Eden to entire lid. You can also lightly tap on to any blemishes to conceal.
3. Brown Shadow.
Gently sweep brown shade just over the curve of the eye and blend. This helps emphasize the eyes creating the illusion of depth.
4. Sherri’s Superwear Gel Eye Liner in Onyx.
Go close to the lash line on the top and line the water-line on the bottom.
5. Accent Color.
For more drama, use a flat brush and smudge the liner with an accent color of choice close to the lash line on top and bottom.
6. Lashes.
Apply strip lashes. Trim it to fit your eye and allow the glue to dry about 30 seconds before applying as close to the lash line as possible. Lashes used here are Lilly Lash Ash_Kohlm.
7. Foundation.
Blend It Cosmetics Bye Bye Lines Foundation beginning in the center of the face and brush outward with a brush for a flawless finish.

A dual-tipped brush is great to dust Laura Mercier Translucent Loose Setting Powder to set the foundation.
