Mei Melancon: Colorful Eyeshadow

A great and easier-to-apply alternative to smoky eyes is a colorful eyeshadow worn all over the eye like "X-Men 3" star Melancon has on here. The bold green she's wearing contrasts beautifully against her Filipina skin tone. To copy this look, use a cream shadow like Nars Cream Eyeshadow, $22, and simply swipe the cream on your lids with a fingertip -- don't bother with a brush. Complete the look by lining your eyes with liquid liner and coating just your top lashes with waterproof mascara.

The step by step instructions were great. However;I find that if I try to line my eyes, I end up looking like I have no lashes.

I agree with chat_noir... my eyebrows are super black. All the other tips are excellent though.

A lot of these are great tips, but I totally disagree about the one that says not to use black on eyebrows. My eyebrow hairs are blacker than black, so using a lighter color would look absolutely ridiculous.

Thanks for the article. it is so hard to do eye makeup with our no-crease eyes.
