Eye shadow
Some people find that having foundation and powder on the eyelids, causes creases in the eye shadow application. Others, feel that these actuallyact as a smooth base which helps the colour glide on easily - you should decide whatworks better for you.Choose a natural colour, such as brown or peach, depending on your skin's tone, and lightly sweep a medium sized brush over the eye shadow palette. If you prefer to use a cream or gel-type shadow, then the tip of your middle finger with just a dot of the product, should work just fine.

- TIP: One or two shades of powdered eye shadow will be quite enough this season. If you do use eye colour of a different consistency, then only use one colour if you want to keep it basic; the more daring of you may want to try up to three different shades - just try to use the same brand, as they are more likely to be of the same formula, thus easier to blend with each other.
Eye liner
For paler skins, light browns and taupe work best. Those who are swarthier could try mahogany and charcoal hues. Soft eye lining, using kohl pencils, is ideal for summer days.
The equivalent shades in liquid form are great at night but the line must be thin and not extend beyond the actual corner of the eye.
Different hues of glittered pencil eyeliners are often popular with the younger set, but subtle shades with added sparkle are more flattering to the grown-up woman.
