How to Wear Blue Eyeshadow Properly

Blue eyeshadow has come a very, very long way since Madonna's 'Like a Virgin' video days. When applied correctly you can make a quiet statement in fashion without looking like a shocking blast from the past!

Difficulty: Easy

Instructions

Things You'll Need:

• Light, Baby-Blue Eyeshadow
• Large Eyeshadow Brush
• Small Eyeshadow Contour Brush
• Grey Liquid Eyeliner
• Grey Pencil Eyeliner
• Volumizing Grey Mascara

1. 

   Using your large eyeshadow brush, sweep the light blue shadow over the entire lid (from beneath the brow to the lash line). Depending on the desired depth of color, you can start with a thin layer of color and layer it as you go.

2. 

   Next, use a seperate eyeshadow brush to blend any hard edges for a softer effect. This is necessary, primarily, in the outer corners of the eyes.

3. 
   Estee Lauder Pure Color Eyeliner

   Apply a thin line of the grey liquid liner to the top lash line. Also apply a thin line of grey pencil liner to the lower lash line; make sure not to smudge the pencil line on the lower lash to maintain the clean look.

4. 
   Cover Girl Lash Blast Mascara

   Finish with a volumizing grey/black mascara.
