Now we're moving on to the lid color. You have a few choices with the lid color. You can do a deeper pink or a frosty pink, or you can do like a silver, which is what I'm going to use. Actually, I'm going to use a deep silver. The lid color goes directly on the lid, which is the ball of the eye. This is kept highlighted and the lid is covered completely in the lid color. You never want to go above the crease with the lid color. You want to keep it directly on the lid. You want to use a smaller brush. You want to kind of stipple it or buff it into the skin so that it doesn't drop too much and it doesn't slide off the eye. This a pretty natural application of this silver. I'm going to kind of darken it up just a tiny bit. It's a very frosty silver. Just make sure you blend, blend. Add more if you want. This look is pretty dramatic, so you can be a little more funky. Open. You can take it under the eye a little too. That's up to you. Look up. Clean up a little afterwards. There we go.
