This will keep eye makeup where you put it and prevent creasing. Pick your shadow shades in groups of three-one for the brow bone, one for the lid, and one to serve as liner. They should all be in the same color family, otherwise the effect will be too dramatic.
Using a flat-tipped eyeshadow brush, run the lightest shade right under your eyebrow, down to the crease. Using a fluffy shadow brush, sweep the medium shade from lashline to crease, then blend with the first color.

Using a thin liner brush, add the darkest shade to the top lashline. (Line your bottom lashes too, if you like.)

Finally, take a big blush brush and gently blend it all together with a couple of quick motions back and forth to get a soft overall finish.-- Mally Roncal, celebrity makeup artist

Thanks I saw once a tut where the make up artist dabbed translucent powder under the eyes, then just brushed it away along with any eyeshadow when finished.
 
I always have problems with applying eyeshadow, it usually ends up my face being dirty all over.

Pity that they didn't attach step-by-step photos.

 
Thanks for the tips. I've agree with everyone else on the use of a base before applying e/s. What a difference!
