Eye Color Explained

Highlighter – The lightest shade used in an eye look. It enhances eye features such as the brow bone and the inner corner of the eye.

Midtone – The medium shade used in an eye look. For a day look, this shade is usually neutral.

Accent – The darkest shade used in and eye look. It adds a pop of color and depth to the eye.

Step 1

First, apply the highlighter shade to the brow bone and lid. Also apply the highlighter shade to the inside corners of the eyes to help the eyes appear farther apart.

Step 2

Next, starting at the outer corner of the crease, bring the midtone shade toward the inside corner to the brow, but not all the way over to the nose. Use the midtone color to bridge the highlighter and accent shades along the lower lashline.

Step 3

To finish, sweep the accent shade across the base of the upper lashline and up into the outer area of the crease.

Step 4

Sweep the accent shade underneath the lower lashline for definition. Stop the color before you get to the inside corners.

Tips for Sensational Eyes

• Remember to blend! Eye colors should blend smoothly without looking like streaks of color.
• If you’re unsure of your eye shape, don’t worry! Just use the application for standard eyes. It looks good on everyone.
• If you have a combination of eye types, for example, wide-set and hooded, choose the application for the feature you most want to downplay or enhance.
