2. Apply the shade Hustle (3rd from the right) all over the lid with an eye shader brush. Be careful not to let it go beyond the crease.

3. Apply a slightly darker eyeshadow (Darkhorse; 5th from the right) in the outer V of the eye and using a light windshield motion, blend it with a soft blending brush (MAC 217).

4. Then take an even darker eyeshadow (Creep; 2nd from the right) and draw a subtle winged eyeliner on the outer half of the upper lash line. Be careful to apply just a little bit at a time and build the intensity gradually.

5. Take the shade Sin (2nd from the left) and apply it as a highlight in the inner corner of the eye.

The eye should look something like this at this stage.

6. Take an angled brush and using a black eyeshadow instead of an eyeliner, line your upper lashline. Using an eyeshadow instead of an eyeliner creates a more smokey/ diffused look as compared to using an eyeliner.

7. Take your favourite kohl and line your lower waterline. Smudge it with the black eyeshadow. I avoid lining my entire lower waterline because it kind of closes my eye and makes it appear smaller. But if you want, you can go ahead and line your entire waterline. Complete the look with lots of mascara.
