Blue eyeshadow & X Factor

On Sunday evening I watched the X Factor final. Kimberley Walsh was presenting from South Shields (Cheryl Cole's friend and Girls Aloud band member I am told) and had the loveliest eyeshadow I've seen in ages. A kind of neutral slightly peachy nude shade with a blue half way up her eye I can't find a picture of it anywhere. It was very nice and I would like to learn how to do it.

I bought some blue eyeshadow today.

Can anyone help me?

TIA

I saw it! I wonder if we can search for an image online - google images - and get a close up to copy it?

Here's the clip on youtube but it's not great. Here's a photo but her eyes are a bit scrunched up! And here's link. Can you work from any of those?

Essie! Well done and I am pleased I am not the only one that noticed it! I found the photo but it's barely visible . The link you posted doesn't work. Isn't it beautiful? How am I going to learn how to do it? Do you think I should write to her .

LOL, you write to her asking for make up tips! I bet she didn't do it herself...
Do a search on google for Kimberley Walsh South Shields and you should get the Youtube link. Or just look on youtube? It's not brilliant, but you might be able to pause it on a blink... How about iplayer or whatever ITV has?
We'll be weird KW eyelid stalkers!

I'm no make up artist - but any chance it's a smokey eye effect just done with blue not dark??

I don't think it is. I made a first attempt last night before bed. Dp thought I'd gone mad. I went up to brush my teeth & came down in full makeup. It was quite nice but not right.
