Step 2

With a darker shade (chocolate, ash, gold, dark purple), highlight the movable part of the upper eyelid, blending eyeshades well with a brush.

Step 3

The next step is applying eyeliner. Depending on how bright the makeup should be, they can be applied with a pencil or liquid eyeliner. The wings should go as close to the lash line as possible, repeat the contour of the upper eyelid, and only slightly go beyond the eye line, moving the brush tip outwards.
