To look perfect at your next picnic, Noel suggests going for a defined eye, keeping the rest of your face neutral. If you prime properly with a product like Too Faced Shadow Insurance in Candlelight, you won't have to worry about touching up! Just grab a convenient duo with gorgeous neutral hues, such as Cargo Eyeshadow Duo in Sausalito. Sweep the coppery shade in your creases, blending thoroughly, and use the lighter shade as a highlighter on the inner corners of your eyes as well as underneath your brow bones. Top it off with a gel liner that lasts—Noel loves Stila Smudge Pot in Black for its luxurious texture and serious staying power!
