START WITH CLEAN EYES! And prime with whatever primer you choose to use. I used UD Primer Potion for this look.
Step 1: Take your MSC light grey and make a "triangular" shape on your eyelid!
See? That is a triangle-ish shape!!
Step 2: complete your almond shape with the black. Just a rough estimate of the shape you are trying to create, you can see my shape is sloppy and not saturated. If you are using the blocking method to create a clean line, you can skip this!
Step 2.5: After you get the basic shape that you want, blend it out and in, as necessary, and add more color for your desired saturation. You can see that my MSC black has been brought higher up towards my brows, you DON'T have to do the same, just get a shape you like and are comfortable with.
Step 3: Take your MSC white and apply it heavily to your inner corner, and lightly along your browbone.
Now you are ready for any liner, mascara, filling in your brows, whatever you want!! See how easy? It took me maybe 5 minutes of active time to do this, but if you are just starting DON'T rush!
I did a cat eye with UD Electric (bright blue) then lined my waterline (top, half of bottom) with UD Zero, and applied a black mascara. VOILA!
P.S. It looks great on girls with glasses, too!
