Peacock Eye Shadow - Unique Eyeshadow Tutorial

Items needed to create the Peacock look:

Eyeliner - I used the Wet n Wild Black Pencil
Mascara - Black (I used Falsies)
Eyeshadow Color - Gold, Lime Green, Medium Purple, and Sky Blue

How to Apply the Peacock Shadow
Using the applicator that came with the shadow, apply the gold eyeshadow to the whole eye lid and up to the eye brow. Apply the medium purple to the inner corner of the eye lid to the middle of the eye lid. Apply the lime green shadow from the middle of the eye lid to the outer corner. Place the sky blue shadow in the middle of the lid where the medium purple and lime green meet to gently blend the area between the two colors. Using your finger, lightly blend the area where the colors meet.

Applying the Eyeliner and Mascara for the Peacock look:
Using the black eyeliner pencil start from the outer top corner of the eye and create a line as close to the eye lash line as possible to the middle of the eye. When creating the wing off the outer corner of the eye, follow the natural curve of your eye lashes. This line can be short or long, depending on the effect you are looking for. The line I have shown here is a longer line almost reaching a half inch. Place the black eye liner from inner corner of the lower lid to the outer corner of the lid directly at the base of the lashes. *Tip* To keep your black liner from running or smudging, use the tip of the shadow applicator and place black shadow directly on top of the liner. This will set the liner.

When putting on the mascara, the important thing is to hold the brush as close to the base of the eye lashes as possible. When moving the brush to the tip of the lash you should roll the brush at the same time. This helps to ensure that each lash has been covered and separated. You can use 2 to 3 coats of mascara. I only used one with the Falsies mascara.

To finish the look, add the gold eyeshadow right under the liner on the bottom lid. This will also cover up any of the mascara or liner that might have smudged.
