Sephora How To: Everyday Eye Tutorial

Hey everyone!



Step-by-step guide to mastering this essential beauty technique using Sephora Collection Pro Brushes.

~Step 1: Sweep a nude shadow from lash lines to browbones using the flat side of the PRO #14 Shadow Brush for a sheer wash of color.

~Step 2: Layer on a soft brown shadow over creases using the very tip of the PRO #10 Crease Brush for soft precision. Blend with gentle, outward strokes.

~Step 3: Deepen lash lines by wiggling a dark brown shadow with the PRO #18 Shader Brush between upper and lower lashes. Move from outer to inner corners.

~Step 4: Curl lashes and finish with mascara on top lashes.

*Suggested Brushes: PRO Shadow #14 - Softly structured bristles sweep on a veil of color for the perfect base. PRO Crease #10 - Medium sized domed tip deepens creases with soft dimension. PRO Shader #18 - Soft and accurate, this small detailed brush expertly blends shadow from lash lines to browbones.
