Some useful tips on applying eyeshadow: 1.To brighten your eyes, you can put some white pearly eyeshadow near your tear ducts. This will also help your eyes to look bigger 2.Although you can indeed apply your eyeshadow using your fingertips, they will likely be too big and are coated in natural oils which make application difficult. You are suggested to use a stiff flat brush to apply eyeshadow to your entire lid. This kind of brush is best for picking up lots of pigment and distributing it over your entire eyelid 3.When you first apply the pigment to your eyelid, pat the eyeshadow on rather than brushing it across your lid. This will help it to stick to your lid better, and give a solid rather than patchy appearance 4.Instead of sweeping your eyeshadow back and forth across your eye in a fast motion, use short, slow brush strokes going in the same direction to blend colors. You should never be moving your hand quickly as you apply your eyeshadow 5.Unless you are using a highlighter color, you should never apply your eyeshadow all the way up to your eyebrows. Which will over-dramatize your eyes and make them look much too overdone 6.Doing your eye makeup should be the last step in your makeup application process, so put on your regular makeup first 7.Apply a shadow primer to help your eyeshadow last all day. If you don't, the natural oils your skin creates will seep through the shadow and cause it to gather along your crease several hours into wearing it
