How long did it take you to learn to apply eyeshadow properly?

Question

i just got a trio of eyeshadow, ie one for each bit of eyelid or whatever. never did it before, do i have a chance of learning/make it look ok for tomorrow night?

Answer 1

I can't access the video on this computer but most of the time the darkest shade can be used wet as a liner and then dry in the crease.  I just use my pinkie finger to smudge it in and it takes two seconds.  Then the mid tone for the the lid just swipe some over it and then the lightest color on the brow bone, right under your eyebrow.  I use my fingers for everything except wet shadow liner and it doesn't take me more then five minutes to do total and I learned on my own by just reading someone's description.  

If you are scared of looking too made up, just start by only putting a little on and adding more slowly.

Try if a few times, It gets easier.

It took me while to learn how to apply it, but the hardest thing is finding the best shade for you. (:
