00:03 Now that you've primed your eyelids,
00:05 we are going to put on eye shadow.
00:07 And eye shadow is important
00:09 because it accentuates your eye color
00:11 and you can match your clothing.
00:13 You can really use any color
00:14 that you feel comfortable wearing.
00:16 So it's a fun addition of color to any makeup.
00:19 My drugstore suggestion for eye shadow
00:21 is L'Oreal Hip Eye Shadow, which is $8.25.
00:26 What's fun about this eye shadow is it comes in a duo.
00:29 So it has two complementary colors
00:32 and it's very similar to MAC eye shadows,
00:34 which are very popular, but it's at a better price point.
00:38 My professional suggestion for eye shadow
00:40 is the Urban Decay Single Eye Shadow Pots, which are $18.
00:44 With 68 eye shadows to choose from, different colors,
00:48 there's going to be something that you like.
00:50 And what's fun about these is they're very true
00:53 to the color that you see in the pot.
00:54 Sometimes you get an eye shadow and you try to put it on
00:58 and it goes a little bit gray, goes a little bit brown.
01:02 These stay very true to color
01:04 and you can use the primer that we talked about,
01:06 which is very complementary to this
01:08 because it's the same brand.
01:10 An eye shadow that you should stay away from
01:12 is the 8 Pan Maybelline Eye Shadow.
01:15 Talk about a hard eye shadow to apply.
01:18 The colors don't complement themselves whatsoever
01:20 and they're very, very hard to apply
01:22 because they hardly have any color to them.
01:25 Giving yourself a real frame for the eyes
01:27 comes in with eyeliner.
01:28 Kohl eyeliner is soft eyeliner
01:31 that is usually in a pencil form
01:33 or a mechanical pencil form.
