Transcript

Your eye makeup looks like this because you're doing this. Okay? All that shimmer and texture. And this. And this. And this. Did it go? All that shimmer and texture. And this. And this. You want to do this. Use a concealer as an all-over primer, not a powdery shimmery eyeshadow. Starting with a softer brush and a medium more matte tone to smooth out any texture on the lid, going higher to lift the eye over the brow, through the hood, blurring texture instead of enhancing it. Then take your crease color over the hood, not in the hood, and shimmer lightly placed on top of the already blurred lid. Lifted and blurred. Tired and crazy. You got this. Let's go.
