"Now that her face is done and her skin looks perfect, sun kissed, and glowy, we're going to the eye shadow base. I'm using a champagne color. It's a MAC color called shroom. It's a really neutral champagne color, but it's got an iridescence to it, so it gives a really pretty highlight to the eye. You can't go wrong with this. You can just pile this on. You can't mess it up. No matter what skin tone you want. Unless you're really, really dark skinned, you can just pile this on. Again, I'm doing all over the whole eyelid. Under the brow as a highlight, on the lid as a base. All over the lid. Then I'm actually going to go under the eye too. It's going to give a nice highlight under the eye. This color doesn't have glitter, but it has an iridescence shimmer, so it's a really pretty shade to use as a base and as a highlight. You can put a little more focus under the brow with this color. Look up for me. Put it underneath so that the eye is all even so that this color kind of is a nice canvas for the rest of the funky shades we're going to use next. There you go. There's the base."
