"Now that we have the base color on, we're going to move on to the lid. For the lid, like I originally said, you want to use a like a bronze, shimmery, brown, sable. Anything in that genre. I'm going to use a pretty true bronze. This has a lot of shimmer to it, so you want to be very careful with this. You don't want to over do it because you can over do it. You want to use a smaller brush that you can have more handle on. You want to use a little bit at a time. You can always add more. This color you want to put directly on the lid. By the lid, I mean the ball of the eye. Wherever the eye protrudes, that's where. You want to keep the highlight pretty light and you want to keep the lid for the bronze. You want to go all the way down to the lash line. You don't want to go any higher than the crease. This is pretty natural the way I applied it. I'm going to do a little darker. I'm going to add another layer. As you notice, I'm not swiping it. I'm kind of patting it or stippling it to the eye. That's going to help it adhere more without it getting all over the face. If you do get some on your face, the clean up afterwards is not a big deal. To clean up, you just want to take a nice big brush that's clean maybe with a little loose powder on it and just swipe right under the eye. Everything should come off rather nicely. There you go."
