Take a dark brown shade on a smaller defining crease brush, starting at the outer corner.3. On a fluffier brush, take a neutral shade combined with the cream shade and blend into the socket area of your eyelid.4. Define the outer corner of your eyelid with a dark brown shade on a smaller, more defining crease brush. Starting at the outer corner, build the color up slowly to create depth and the illusion of a crease.5. Starting at the very center of the lid using the flat shader brush, use a highlighting shadow – working it inwards and outwards, but avoiding going into the outer corner because you’ll end up brightening the area that you wanted to create depth in.6. Combine two brown shades to redefine the crease at the outer corner to soften up the outer edge, but make sure it’s still defined.7. Using a pencil brush and the same two shades of brown, start defining the outer corner of the lash line and blend them towards the center of your lash line.8.
