Eyeshadow Quad tutorial

Here is how you use an eyeshadow quad...it's pretty much the same as a trio, but with one extra step at the end.
Here's my quad, just your run-of-the-mill Maybelline eyeshadow quad:
                        Step One: Use lightest shade in quad from lashline to browbone...then you can apply your eyeliner as usual
                            Step Two: Use second darkest shade in crease of eye, applying in back-and-forth windshield motion
                           Step Three: Apply darkest shade at lashline, winging out a bit at the end
                   Step Four: Use the second lightest color, also known as the highlighter, in the inner corners of eyes, along browbone, and on bottom lashline. I use my pink to do the inner corner and browbone


Using eyeliner brush, apply to lower lashline...my quad had all matte colors, but this fourth color used as a highlighter really adds drama if it is a metallic...

 Just add your mascara, then you're done!!!
