Step 1: Apply light brown eyeshadow as a base
Apply a light brown eyeshadow slightly darker than your skin tone to the outer half of the upper eyelid and the outer corner of the lower eyelid.
Step 2: Dark Brown Crease
Using a dark brown eyeshadow pencil or fine brush, trace along the natural curve of the eye to define the outer corner.
Step 4: Apply Light Pink to Inner Corner
Choose a light pink eyeshadow with subtle shimmer. Apply generously to the inner corners of both upper and lower lids, extending from the socket to just below the brow bone.
Tip: Using darker shades at the outer corners and lighter shades at the inner corners prevents puffy-looking lids.
Step 6: Blend for Dimension Use a clean cotton swab to blend the edges between the pink and brown eyeshadows, creating a beautiful gradient from inner to outer corners.
Tip: Use a clean cotton swab to blend the edges between different eyeshadow colors, creating a natural, non-muddy layered effect.
Step 7: Peachy Cheeks
Choose a peach blush and sweep it diagonally across the cheeks. Leave the fullest part of the smile muscles bare, instead applying pearlescent highlighter to create plump, rosy cheeks.
Tip:Since the eye makeup is already pink, opt for a peachy blush with orange undertones to brighten the cheeks.
Step 8: Dewy Peach Lips
First, apply a sheer, translucent lip gloss over the entire lips. Then, enhance the center of both upper and lower lips with a pink lip tint.
