Generate many different looks with your eyeshadow as the guide!

Use combinations of contrasting color!  For the first look, use a blue all across your eyelid.  Then, use a pink eyeshadow on the remaining portion under your eyebrow.  Accent the rest with a beautiful bronzy color. 

For a classic looks, apply the lightest color of eyeshadow shade your choose from the crease to the eyebrow (underneath your brow bone).  Then, sweep a soft, subtle shade over your entire lid.  Next, apply a deeper shade of shadow ALONG the crease, just above your eye; a slanted eyeshadow brush works perfect for this step.  Finally, use an eyeline brush to line your lashes with the darkest shade.  Or, you can ring your entire eye with the dark eyeshadow.

To create a smoky eye, mix a little bit of a bronzy/dark eyeshadow with a creamy/moussy eyeshadow in a shade lighter to combine depth with light.  A dark eyeshadow can be very intimidating, so mixing it with a softer shade can make it foolproof. 

A lot of times, creamy/moussy eyeshadow can be more of hassle than what its worth!  Usually, the eyeshadow ends up gathering in the creases of your eyelid.  For the same look without the obvious imperfection, I mix a TINY bit of shimmery lotion with a dry (loose or packed) eyeshadow with an eyeshadow brush, and sweep it across my lid.  It looks beautiful, and it all doesn't gather in one spot at the end of the day!

Individualize your eyeshadow colors to your skin tone and to the look that you are trying to achieve.  Stay colorful!
