Apply a neutal shade to the eyelids extending slightly to the outer corner of the eye and a bit above the crease. Use primary colors like light brown or a Champaign along the eyelid.

3. Lower Lash Line:

Using a thin brush, apply a slim colour line below the eye; it should be the same colour as the one you have applied on the eyelid.

Apply a darker colour like dark brown towards the inner corner of the eyes and fade it towards to the outer corner. This makes the eyes look narrow because the attention is on the inner corner.

Highlight using a color below the brow bone, in the center directing the eye to the pupil. Blend it with the crease color.

6. Line your Eyes:

Take a very dark color, tap it to the inner corner of the eye, and extend it to the middle of the to get the illusion of closer set eyes.
