Start off by dusting eyeshadow bit by bit and lightly onto your lids. It will be difficult to remove if there's too much but you can always build up the intensity slowly.
Also, take note not to apply the eyeshadow too high up your eye crease as it will result in your eyes looking puffy. Remember to blend away any harsh lines for a natural look.
#2 Define your eyes with a darker eyeshadow shade

Apply a darker eyeshadow shade on the outer corners of your upper and lower eyelid to make your eyes pop. The trick to nailing this is to choose an eyeshadow shade of the same colour as the first one but just slightly darker.

If you are using more than one eyeshadow shade, you should apply the darkest colour on the outer corner of your eye. Use just a tiny bit when applying on your lower eyelid to avoid looking like you have bad dark circles.
