1. Apply any eye primer or lighter shade of concealer to your eyelids. This will ensure a good background for your eye makeup so that the colours of your eye shadow stands out when you apply it.
2. Use a fluffy brush to blend any light colour that will serve as your transition shade into your crease, such as light pink or yellow, to give your eyes a little depth.
3. Apply any shimmer or metallic shade on your lids. The best way to apply a shimmer is with your fingertips to attain the best pigmentation results.
4. Bring the colours to the lower lash line.
5. With a pointed brush, apply a purple gradient to the bottom lash line. This will give the appearance an additional degree of depth and make a lovely backdrop for the eye gems.
6. Create a nice wing liner which will also act like a guide line for you to apply the rhinestones above.
7. To pick up and position the stones effortlessly, all you need is a clear lash glue and a wax pencil. If you don't have a wax pencil, you can also use the back of any thin brush, add some glue, and let it dry. This will make it much easier for you to pick and position the rhinestones.
8. Place small dots of glue above your liner where you want the rhinestones to go. Wait at least 3 to 4 seconds for the glue to slightly dry so that it will be more adherent.
9. Place the rhinestones one at a time, working your way from the inner corner to the winged tip. You can have fun with placement, size, and spacing to get creative.
10. Pro tip: Use rhinestones of various sizes, positioning the larger ones in the centre of the lid and the smaller ones in the corners.
11. Use some mascara to complete the look.

1. Lay down a fuchsia pink eyeshadow evenly all over both the eyelids.
2. Blend the edges out with a lighter pink shadow. You can wear any colour that goes with your attire or vibe.
3. Once the base is ready, we proceed to the most crucial part: Applying rhinestones. Make sure that you have different sized rhinestones, a wax or white kajal pencil, and some lash glue.
4. Apply the lash glue to the flat side of the rhinestone, pick it up with a wax pencil and apply it randomly, one by one all over the eyelid.
5. Use a clear lash glue so that the colour doesn’t peek through the stone.
6. Use different sizes of stones to give it a defined look.
7. Be patient throughout the process as it is slightly tedious to stick multiple stones one by one.
8. Pro tip: Finish off the look with some black kohl and lashes and your rhinestone gem make-up is ready!
