Remember the ombre trend? It’s still going strong, only now it’s not confined to your clothes and accessories. Why not follow these steps and create a sexy, multicolored eye shadow look in seconds?
- Choose an eye shadow palette (such as Sue Devitt’s Marine Minerals Eye Palette, shown in Green Isles) which features dark, medium and light shades of the same color shadow. [Bonus: Looks pretty even before it gets to your face!]
- Apply the darkest shade along your upper lash line with a flat-tip brush.
- Sweep the medium shade onto your eyelid crease with a shadow brush.
- Brush the lightest shade under your brow.

That’s all there is to it! The look is soft and colorful, not loud and garish - the essence of ombre.
