"Makeup artist Andrew Sotomayor takes you through a shadow, liner, and mascara tutorial and shares some of his all-time favorite products for the eye area.\n\n \"Avoid the color-by-numbers effect,\" says Sotomayor. \"Eye makeup looks best when it's geared towards your unique eye shape rather than where colors are 'supposed' to go. If your eye doesn't have a strong crease, you don't need to create one. Instead, take advantage of your lid space and apply a smoky ombre of shadows. Apply dark eye shadow at the lashline, a medium color on the lid, and the lightest color on the brow. Use a smudgeable pencil or an angled liner brush lash line and blend. Sometimes it's easier if you open your eye in order to get the liner to the inner corner. Next, apply dark shadow over the liner with a medium shadow brush to intensify the liner and smudge it. Follow with a medium shadow horizontally, just above the darker one, and overlapping a bit to create a fade. Repeat this technique with one or two more shades. The darkest shadow should be black, brown, or gray. The lightest color should be ivory, pale gold, or pearl. The medium shades can be anything you like. For the 2012 Met Costume Institute Gala, I used black, bronze, and rose gold shadows on model Liu Wen.\n\n Curled lashes look longer than straight ones and they open up the eye. For long-lasting curl on naturally straight lashes, apply one coat of waterproof mascara, curl with an eyelash curler, and apply another coat of mascara. Non-waterproof mascaras often cause straight lashes to uncurl, similar to moisture undoing the work of a curling iron on your hair.\"\n\n Keep reading for the eye makeup products Sotomayor swears by."^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
