Hello, I have bought this lovely shiny eyeshadow palette - now what do I do with it? Could you lovelies tell me what to put where - from 1 - 12 left to right maybe. Please speak slowly using simple words because I am totally, totally clueless. Thank you.

You'll need some big eyes to use them all from 1 -12.

There are tutorials on youtube - just search for naked palette tutorial and you'll get a lot of videos.

Haha coffee am imagining a bush baby wearing eyeshadow.

I'd only use 3 or 4 at a time, neutral pale shade all over the lid with a slightly darker shade along the top lash line, then a dark colour in the socket line (& bottom lash line if you want) and blend it all well.

If you can be bothered take the lightest colour & apply in the corner of your eye to highlight.

Hope that made sense?

Ooh, lots of ways!
The middle colours as a wash over the whole lower lid and in the eye socket, finish with mascara for a light, not too made-up look;

Again wash the mid-depth colours over the lower lid, with a combination of two light colours, one in the inner eye corner and one up to the brow;

the full smokey eye using 4 colours-see tutorial here; and .

Or, using a fine bruch, use the darkest colours as a nice smudgey eye liner.
