Sassy- Just experiment! Have fun! I'm not sure if you're talking about any eyeshadow at all or just your darker shades, but you can wear eye shadow over your whole lid. Try a light wash (my favorite is a champagne color with a little irridescence) over your entire lid, and definitely right under your brow. Then use a medium shade (like a taupe for a neutral look) on your lid up to your crease. And a darker shade (mocha for neutral) on your crease, making it darker on the outer corners and fading lighter toward the inner corners. Make sure to blend! Start from here and then go wild. The fun about make up is that it's so individual and that you'll never know what looks good on you until you try.
Oh, and I recommend checking out a few makeover books from the library. That is a really good place to start to find eyeshadow and other techniques.
