Instructions

1
Apply eye primer to the eyelid using your fingers. Eye primer comes in a cream or gel form, and serves as a base to prevent eye shadow from creasing.
-
2
Apply white eyeliner to the inner corner of the eyelid. The white serves as a base to brighten the blue pigment of the eye shadows.

3
Pat a pale blue cream eye shadow over the entire eyelid with a shadow brush.
-
4
Use the same shadow brush to apply a shimmering sky blue eye shadow over top the blue cream shadow. Use a patting motion to prevent smearing the cream eye shadow.
-
5
Use a highlighting brush to apply a highlight powder to the upper brow bone.
-
6
Apply black eyeliner to the outer third of the upper lash line and the outer 2/3 of the lower lash line. Not completing the entire outline of the eye with eyeliner helps the eye appear larger and more open.

7
Comb black mascara through your upper outer lashes only. Doing this will give a doll-like effect to your makeup. Be sure to wiggle the lash comb at the root of the lashes and continue to wiggle as you comb upward. This prevents clumping.
