Tip o' the Day

Deepen the color of any powder eye shadow by dipping a small, firm brush in water before swiping it over the shade. "It gives an intensity to the color," says makeup artist Jeanine Lobell. It also helps the shadow last. Just don't try to blend two shades - you'll make a mess.

I do this every now and then with my mineral shadows and it always wows me. The only thing I hate is using my usual shadow brush for this because getting it wet tends to annoy me, especially if I use it again the next day and it hasn't completely dried. Now, I could just dry it myself and make sure before using it, but I'd suggest having two eyeshadow brushes strictly so you can use one for wet application. It's such a cool dramatic look!
