Step 1
Okay here we go...

Starting off with a concealer over my eyelid. If you prefer Primer then be creative :)

Here I used "Hide & Conceal" by MUA in 'fair'
Step 2
With the concealer placed over your eyelid with your ring finger (or a brush/sponge) it is now ready for the eyeshadow...
Step 3
Next taking a white pigment and a soft blending brush, spread it evenly over your lid and on your brow bone. This will act as a highlight...
Step 4
It should now look something like this...or better!
Step 5
Now taking an ocean blue eyeshadow (any shade of blue will do) and by using the same blending brush as you did with the white pigment, place this in your crease...
Step 6
Also, with the blue, you want to blend it into the white around the inner and outer corner of your eye...
Step 7
By taking a small piece of masking tape, you can place it on the outer corner of your eye, masking a line from the corner of your eye to your eye brow.

Taking a darker blue or purple eyeshadow, blend in above the previous blue and into the inner parts of our eye.

Once you have completed this step, carefully peel back the masking tape to reveal a clean straight eyeshadow line shown in the photo provided...
Step 8
For my eyeliner I will be using 24 hr gel Liner by Maybelline.
Step 9
On to the final steps now...

Taking a black eyeliner of your choice, follow the shape of your eye and then 'wing' it out at the outer corner.

Lastly apply a black mascara to your lashes to create your desired effect.

And now your done! :)

Optional: If you don't have natural long lashes, False Lashes are also a great addition to this design!
