Team Lightyear Makeup Look

Prep

Start by applying primer to your eyelids to lock in your shadow. Add loose setting powder under your eyes to catch fallout, and dust a small amount of powder onto your lids to create an even base.

Eyeshadow Look

Use a dome-shaped brush to press the matte gray eyeshadow into your crease and outer corner. Blend it softly with a fluffy brush. Using the dome brush again, shape the outer corner into a V, then blend to soften the edges.

Tip: For clean lines, place your finger from the outer corner of your eye toward the end of your eyebrow as a guide.

Use your fingertip to apply the frosty shimmer eyeshadow onto the inner corner and inner lid. A foam applicator or Q-tip works well for the tear duct area. Blend lightly with a fluffy brush.

Next, use your fingertip to apply the dark gray shimmery shadow to the inner and middle lid and blend it softly. For optional under-eye definition, use the dome brush to sweep matte gray under the lower lash line, then stack shimmery gray on top.

Use the light gray shimmer on your fingertip and place it on the center of the lid for a soft glow. Blend gently. Add a small amount of black eyeliner to frame the eyes.

Mascara & Glitter

Add two coats of mascara to lengthen the lashes. Sweep away the loose setting powder and any fallout. If any shadow remains, add a little more powder and sweep again.

For Mega Glitter, squeeze a tiny amount onto a Q-tip and apply it to the temples. A small amount is plenty, and you can always add more.

This completes the Team Lightyear look.

Team Nebula Makeup Look

Prep

Apply primer to your lids to help set the eyeshadow. Add loose setting powder under your eyes and dust a small amount on your lid for a smooth base.

Eyeshadow Look

Use a dome-shaped brush to apply the dark purple eyeshadow into your crease and outer corner. Blend it softly with a fluffy brush. Add more purple in a V shape on the outer corner and blend again.

Tip: For a sharp smokey shape, align your finger from your eye’s outer corner to the end of your eyebrow while pressing in the color.

Pat the purple shimmer onto the outer corner and outer middle of the lid using your fingertip or a foam applicator. Blend gently.

Next, create a unique green tone by layering two shadows. Pat teal eyeshadow onto the inner and middle lid. Then pick up the green shimmer with a clean fingertip and pat it directly over the teal. Lightly blend where the green meets the purple so the shades transition smoothly.

For optional under-eye lining, use the dome brush to apply dark purple under the lower lash line.

Add a small amount of black eyeliner to frame the eyes.

Mascara & Lips

Apply two coats of mascara. Sweep away any loose powder and fallout. If needed, add a bit more powder and sweep again.

Clean your lips with a makeup wipe. Shake your matte lipstick and apply a thin coat by lining the lips first and then filling them in. Allow it to dry completely for about a minute.

Avoid balm or gloss underneath or on top so the lip color stays matte and transfer-protected.

This completes the Team Nebula look.

Team Jedi Makeup Look

Prep

Apply eyeshadow primer to your lids. Add loose setting powder under your eyes and dust a small amount on your lids for an even base.

Eyeshadow Look

Use a dome-shaped brush to apply the hot pink matte eyeshadow into your crease and blend it softly with a fluffy brush.

Next, use the darker matte pink on the outer corner in a V shape, then blend to soften the edge.

Tip: For a clean smokey line, align your finger from the outer corner of your eye to the end of your eyebrow as you press in the shadow.

Use your fingertip to apply the frosty shimmer onto the inner corner and inner lid. You can also use a foam applicator or a Q-tip for the tear duct area. Blend gently.

Use your fingertip to pat the shimmery pink onto the middle lid, blending it slightly into the inner and outer corners. Add a touch more frosty shimmer right where the two pink shades meet to create a seamless fade.

For optional under-eye lining, use the dome brush to apply matte pink under the lower lash line and then layer the shimmery pink on top.

Add black eyeliner to frame the eyes.

Mascara, Lashes & Lips

Apply two coats of mascara. Sweep away the loose powder and any fallout. Add more powder and sweep again if needed.

If you are wearing lashes, apply them now.

Clean your lips with a makeup wipe. Shake your matte lipstick, line your lips, then fill them in with a thin coat. Let it dry completely.

Avoid balm or gloss so the color remains matte and transfer-protected.

This completes the Team Jedi look.
