In a TikTok posted on December 30, 2025, creator Shelby Ann (@shelbyannbell) shared an affordable New Year's Eve eyeshadow tutorial, emphasizing that you don't need new makeup.
What concealer did Shelby Ann use as an eyeshadow base?
Shelby Ann used the Maybelline Lifter Concealer in shade 15 as her base. She explained her technique: "I use the Maybelline Lifter concealer in the shade 15. I carved out my brow and then I just brought down the rest of the concealer onto my eyelid."
What eyeshadow palette did she use?
She reached for the ColourPop Feeling Bubbly palette. She noted, "We're going with our Feeling Bubbly palette from ColourPop. You can use what you already have. Do not feel like you need to go out and buy a brand new eyeshadow palette for this."
What mascara and eyeliner did Shelby Ann recommend?
For mascara, she used the Essence Lash Princess Waterproof Mascara. She shared her preference: "This is the Essence Lash Princess Waterproof. I personally like a waterproof mascara because I feel like it holds curl better."
For eyeliner, she chose the Essence But First Espresso Eyeliner. She said, "This one is from Essence in the shade But First Espresso. I'm going to tightline my top lash line with a dark brown eyeliner."
What single eyeshadow did she add?
She applied the Adriana Nicole eyeshadow in the shade Goddess as a topper, exclaiming, "I'm using the Adriana Nicole eyeshadow in the shade Goddess. You guys, this is so beautiful."
What false lashes did she use?
She finished with the House of Lashes Muse lashes. She said, "This is the Muse from House of Lashes. These are the perfect half lash. They're so beautiful."
What brushes did Shelby Ann use in this tutorial?
She used several brushes for application and blending:
- Gesset E01 Brush: "This is a Gesset brush. This is the E01 and it's a double-ended eyeshadow brush. I'm going with the fluffier side. I'm just blending in a windshield wiper motion with that fluffy brush."
- Morphe M303 Brush: "This is a Morphe M303. I'm going to pick up a little bit of this white shade. I'm going to tap that right on the part of the eyelid."
- Morphe M332 Brush: "This is a Morphe M332. I'm going to pick up a little bit of the deepest brown shade. I'm going to put that right here in the outer corner."
- Morphe M302 Brush: "This is the Morphe M302. This is just like a packing brush. I'm going to pick up some of the shadow on the brush."
