While I love elaborate eye makeup looks and keep them filed in a folder on my Instagram account, I also want them to take minimal effort and time to apply. With just one product, the Beauty by POPSUGAR Crystal Power Palette in Lady Jade ($37), you can create a simple bronze summertime eye shadow look — one friendly enough to wear through all of the adventures you have planned this season. The palette's highly pigmented, buttery textures will blend seamlessly together for your new go-to makeup look.

Check out the three-step tutorial ahead.

Step 1: Lay Down Your Base

Taking a dense, flat eye-shading brush, pick up the matte beige shade named Solid Gold and buff it across your lids. This base layer will make your crease and lid shadows look more vibrant.

Step 2: Blend In Your Crease Color

Step 2: Blend In Your Crease Color

Blend in a deeper shade, like the matte terracotta called Amber, across your crease.

Step 3: Buff Your Lids With Gold

Sweep Agate, the yellow-gold shade, across your lids beneath your crease color, being careful to not completely overlap the with the one in your crease. Taking a clean, fluffy brush, blend the two colors into a gradient across your lids.
