This is going to make everything in the crease blending a little bit easier.

So we see that her eyelid stands out, but it's not going to give us too dramatic of a crease.

Like this dark color I'm adding now, I'm not going to bring all the way in.

I'm just leaving on the outer part of the eye so that when her eyes open, you see a little depth out there, but you're not seeing a dark, smoky eye.

We don't want to compete too much with the red lip.

Right.

So I'm going back with a brush with no product on it.

This is just a fluffy brush.

This is called dry brushing.

And this is what you do when you want to just diffuse everything.

You just go blend over it with no product.

And then to brighten everything up, my last step that I like to do is to go in with the shimmers.

So I like to do the darker matte colors first.

That way, when you're using shimmer, it doesn't get everywhere.

You're not blending it all over the place with the other colors.

You have the difference between the matte shadows there and then the shimmer that we're going to pop right on top.

Yep.

I start wherever you want the most impact is where you should place the brush.

So I like to start right in the center.

So that when you blink, you have that nice pop right in the center of the eye.
