Hi, my name is Tamika Herkley, and I'm a Makeup Artist. And today, I'm going to show you how to apply dark eye look to brown eyes. You can use the dark eye look for a daylight and all you need are brush and three complementary dark colors. First, we're going to use the lighter color of the three and once again, a scooping motion, right underneath your brow. This creates drama and highlights your eyebrow. You're going to try the second color right underneath. Tap off the excess and go from the crease and the corner and out. You pretty much want to cover your whole eyeball from the outside. And then, your last color, your smoky color, your dark color right along your lash line; from the corners of the inside of your eye out. You also want to take that color right underneath your lashes. All you needed for this look was your three eye shadow colors and your eye shadow brush. Thank you so much for watching. My name is Tamika Herkley.
