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.

Step 2

Next, starting from the outer corner of the crease, bring the midtone shade to the inside corner of the eye. Deepen the midtone color on the inside corners and lids to help the eyes appear closer together.

Step 3

Starting slightly in from the outer corner, brush the accent shade across the upper lashline and into the crease of the eye. Also sweep it underneath the lower lashline, being careful not to extend it beyond the outer edge of the eye.

Step 4

To line your eyes, glide a thin, soft stroke of eyeliner on the upper and lower lashline, just to the outer edge of the eye. Soften with the Eyeliner/Eyebrow Brush. Sweep your favorite Mary Kay® mascara evenly to upper and lower lashes.

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.
