Q What's the right way to apply eye shadow? I never know how many shades to use.

-KIM, 26, NEW YORK CITY

A The rule of thumb is to find a light and dark version of the same color; use the first as a "wash" all over your lid and the second as an "accent" in your crease. Play it safe with hues that match and enhance your eye color--or be bold and go for tones that contrast with your eyes. Robin Schoen, a New York City makeup artist, suggests applying shadow with a tapered makeup brush, since "bushier bristles can disperse the powder all over your lid." Try the ELF Cosmetics Eye Shadow Brush ($1; eyeslipsface.com).
