Shadowed effect: Choose an eyeshadow shade to go with your outfit. Dip a wide brush in the shadow. Tap the excess powder on a tissue. Apply the colour on your entire lid from the lash line to above the crease. When using a bold colour, apply heavily around the lash line and blend it well in the rest of the area.

Smokin' hot: Fill your entire lid with a black liner and let it dry. This will make your eyeshadow stay longer. Now, apply black eyeshadow on top of your liner. Using the same brush, now make gentle upward strokes, spreading the eyeshadow onto your crease. Blend out the edges to give an even effect. Apply the same eyeshadow on your waterline. You can also coat your lashes with mascara for an added effect.

Windkissed look: If your outfit is not so jazzy, you can jazz up your look with some bright makeup. Set your base with concealer, foundation and compact powder. Now apply eyeliner on your lids. You can also experiment with winged or cat-eye. Go for liquid liner for smooth lines or eye pencil for smudgy effect. To keep your eye makeup last all day, use an eye shadow primer on your lash line before applying the liner. Now, apply mascara on top and bottom.

Colour Chic: Want to get out of your comfort zone? Then, add colour to your eyes by using a coloured liner or pencil. Use it on the sides of your eyes (L) or just on the inside corner of your waterline and finish the rest with a black liner (R). You can also use the coloured pencil on your entire waterline and leave a pointed stroke at the inside corner (C). Complete the look with a delicate strip of liner on the eyelid and finish with a mascara coat. Keep rest of the makeup minimal.
