Sunset your eyes!
I hail from the sunny and hot state of Arizona. Arizona is known for it's spectacular sunrises and sunsets.The colors are amazing. It's almost like the sky is ablaze with fire. These colors are the inspiration for this eye makeup tutorial. This eye makeup look is super simple and I promise that you'll be able to replicate it. In just a few simple steps your eyelids will be emblazoned with a beautiful wash of color.

Step 1
With your ring finger apply eyeshadow primer to each eyelid. Eyeshadow primer helps your shadow stay on longer, keeps it from smudging and helps it look brighter. I highly recommend using it. I use it daily and it really does keep my eyeshadow looking fresh all day.
Step 2
With the medium sized makeup brush, apply the beige eyeshadow from the inner corners of your eyelids to the center of your eyelids. Void (clean the excess shadow off) the brush on a towel or paper towel.
Step 3
Apply the orange shadow from the outer corner of each eyelid to the center of the eyelid. Make sure to blend the two colors together in the center of the eyelid. Void the brush.
Step 4
Apply the purple shadow to the outer corner of the eyelid over top of the orange shadow. Make sure a bit of the orange still shows in the center of the eyelid. When applying a color over top of another color, it helps to sort of just tap the color on. Blend the shadows together slightly, sweeping a bit of purple shadow in the crease of the lid toward the center of the lid. Void the brush.
Step 5
Apply white shadow to the brown bone. Void the brush.
Step 6
Line the top and bottom lash line with purple eyeliner. You can smudge your eyeliner a bit if you'd like a smokey look.
Step 7
Apply two coats of black mascara to the top and bottom lashes.
