"For the crease of the eye on my model I am going to use a dark brown. Kind of like a coffee bean brown or an espresso brown. I am going to do that in the crease to give them a little bit of a smoky feel since orange is so vibrant. I am going to use a nice fluffy crease brush and I am going to go directly into the crease of the eye using just a little bit at a time, dipping into the pot just a little bit at a time. You just want to add a nice smoky feel to it so that that orange is not so wow, to make this something a little more wearable. And this brown goes beautifully with the orange. It is just a nice combination. And just depending on how dark or smoky you want to go we will just keep adding, adding to the crease and by the crease of the eye I mean the end of the eye, make the V the little sideways V and fill it in. You do not want to go too far to the center of the eye. You want to keep mostly to the ends of the eye to make that smoky cat's eye look. And just blend, blend, blend. Open. Till you get your desired look. I don't want it too dark. I really still want to see the orange. I just want to give it a little more of a smoky feel. Open. And there we go."
