How to (Step 1)

Since this look is so simple and natural If you want to know how to achieve this look, read on! We will need just some simple cosmetics. Since it's probably for a more casual day, so chances are you will want it to last all day and not smudge. Start with an eye primer and apply it all over the lid and below the eye since you will be putting eyeshadow in both places. Try Victoria's Secret Lasting FX Shadow Primer ($8), or NYX Eyeshadow Base Eye Shadow Primer (On Amazon)

How to (Step 2)

Apply a slightly shimmery brown eyeshadow all over the lid, making sure not to apply it into the crease of your eye. Then blend the eye shadow gently upward. Try Covergirl Country Woods Palette, using the second color from the left.

How to (Step 3)

Using the 4th color from the left in the same palette, apply this eyeshadow in the crease of the eye (the hollow part) and blend out the makeup just a little bit outside of where your eye ends. This should give you a sexy smoky look, but without being too heavy for a natural look. Apply this eye shadow to the inner corner of your eye and connect it with the color in the crease. Lightly line the bottom of your eyes with this color also, and then blend the eyeshadow a little with a blending brush such as the ones on the right side.

How to (Step 4)

Line your eyes with eyeliner. Start with a fine line in the inner corner, and as you move outward gradually thicken the top line of the eyeliner. On the waterline, only line the outer third of the eye, because lining the whole eye will make your eyes appear smaller. Try Urban Decay's 24/7 Eyeliner.

How to (Step 5)

In this step, apply your favorite mascara to your top and outer third of your bottom lashes. If you do not know what mascara might work, I recommend Beauty Rush Mascara in black by Victoria's Secret.

Step 6

Apply a blush that has an orange tint and is one shade darker than your skin tone. Or use a bronzer but do not over do it. Try Covergirl's Natural Glow blush. Remember, this is a natural look, keep it simple, which is why you shouldn't put anything on your lips. Lip balm only!
Voila! You're done!
