Eyeshadow palettes
For make-up range palettesTo apply eye shadow, use the foam applicator included in the box. No need to press on the eyelid. Apply the shadow gently, like a caress. This prolongs the life of the applicator foam. By dedicating one side of the tip to one color, you can use up to four colors with the same applicator.
For 7-shadow palettes, once you've used all four sides, gently rub the applicator tip on a tissue to use another color. You can also use the flat brush (small bristle width) in the 3-brush kit.
