To begin, prime your eye with either a white eyeliner, or a cream white base. A regular primer will work fine, if you don’t have either white bases.
From this step on: MAKE SURE you are looking into a mirror that is level to your eye, in a relaxed position.
Throughout the look, you need to keep your eyes relaxed.
Step 2: Apply a shimmer/metallic shadow (the lighter the better)
With a wet brush.
I used “vanilla pigment” from MAC (I’ve had this for 5 years and going strong, pigments are so awesome!)
Place light color on eyelid and above your natural crease line, if you have one.
If you don’t, go up to however high, you want your eye lid to appear.
I went slightly above my natural crease, because I don’t have much room.
It’s key to wet the brush, so the metallic or shimmer element of the shadow, will create a better illusion of a bigger eyelid, by deflecting light.

Step 3: Using a small brush and a matte medium brown, apply shadow in a rainbow motion, ABOVE previous color.
MAKE SURE you don’t ever go over first shade. There should be a distinct line of division.
Also, blending the top part of the medium brown shade is very important.
You are creating a new and deepersocket of your eye.
