Basic II Technique

This Technique here is called the Basic II.

Below I added a diagram of what the makeup application should look like when your eyes are closed. The circles that I've drawn underneath the eyebrow and all over the mobile lid, is where you want to apply your lightest color. The dark shaded area located in the crease, is where you're going to use your darkest color. The X's represent the intermediate color which will be blended outward from where the darkest color has been applied.

This is the perfect look for creating a gorgeous elongated eye, and is also a great look to wear if you are going out and want to add a bit of drama to your eyes, without going for a full on smokey eye.
