When I reviewed the Smashbox Heat Wave Palette I had already decided a tutorial had to happen. I don’t do many foiled tutorials but they are always really pretty. This is a pretty easy tutorial & although it involves quite a few shades it is easier with a wet brush. At the end, you’ll have a lovely tropical eye look! Keep reading to find out how & a list of all products used!

I went ahead & took my swatches & labeled them. They are in the same order as in the palette. If you need a refresher on anything about the palette, check out my full review here!
I recommend doing your eye makeup before foundation to avoid fallout. Use an eyeshadow base, I used the Smashbox Photo Finish Lid Primer. Apply shade #2 foiled as your base shade. Blend out with a bit of shade #7 on the outer corner. Foil shade #4 & apply the inner corner & under the lashline about 1/3 of the way. Blend with a bit of dry up to the crease staying towards the front of the eye. Apply shade #8 along the base of your lashline for the outer 2/3 of your under eye foiled & flip the edge out a bit. Blend blend blend! Make sure you especially blend your lower lashline, use on of the shades dry if necessary for a clean line. Take shade #1 dry lightly & blend up onto the brow bone & along crease edges. Finish with liner & mascara.
