Matte: This formula provides a flat finish that absorbs light. Play the
starlet and pair with light frost lips to emphasize a smoldering gaze.
Frost: These powders reflect light to open up eyes or to create a more
innocent charm. Tired eyes should avoid shimmers as they will crease in fine lines.
SHADOW-AS-LINER TRICK
Use shadow as you would an eye pencil - for softer, more subtle effects!
Take your sponge-tipped applicator and apply close to lash line. Smudge on lid for smokier effects.
GET WET
Wet your applicator tip and dip in your shadow shade - this will create a darker, more dramatic shadow effect. Pro-tip: apply dry shadow to lid, then wet applicator, dip in same color, and draw a line close to upper lash line. You'll get a subtle contrast of shading that'll make you a standout.

For best effects, never use your fingers to apply eye shadow. Instead rely on the pro's tools. Use a sponge applicator tip for precision and targeting creases and lash line. Use the Make-Up Masters Eye Shadow Brush for a soft wash of color all over lid.
EYECOLOR DOES NOT EQUAL SYMBOL EYESHADOW
Matching your eye shadow to your eye color sounds like a good idea - but doesn't work. Your beautiful blues will get lost in a sea of blue eye shadow. Go for contrast instead. |

Dark eyes look good in grays, blues, purples greens. |

Light eyes look good in browns, taupes, bronze shades. |
