That peachy gold really shear color and to use underneath the brow, I'm just going to take that same big brush and I'm going to go right underneath her eyebrow and just accentuate her eyebrow. So, just a little at a time. I'm going to add this shear color underneath the brow, just to give a little more of a highlight. Just a really cool color to use as a highlight. It's got that iridescence to it. It's not white, it's not too blah. It's got just enough spunk. Then I'm going to take the same color, and I'm going to use a pencil brush and I'm going to go into the inside corner of her eye and add a little bit of a highlight, right here. Not inside the eye, but just on the outside. Just right here to the inside corner. This is something you can do with any look, add a little bit of a highlight to the inside corner. It just brightens the eye, diffuses if you have, from under eye circles, if you have them. It's just a really cool little trick to just kind of make the eye pop.

So, look at the difference again, like what a huge difference, from one eye to the other, by just adding a little bit of color."
