Apply the eyeshadow dry all over the eyelid with an eyeshadow brush for a subtle wash of color or apply wet for a vibrant effect. Choose a light color from the everyday smoky eyeshadow palette to apply all over the eyelid as a base or to highlight. Next, apply a medium shade in the crease with a crease brush to contour. Then, apply the darkest shade to line the eye with an angled liner brush for depth and a smoky look.
