I recommend a basic base eyeshadow.

I recommend this as a basic base eyeshadow. It is the famous Laura Mercier shade, Ginger. It is also well-known as the "Suzy eyeshadow." It is a color that suits everyone, and it has great staying power and applies smoothly. I use it frequently as a base color on my eyelids and under my eyes. Laura Mercier eyeshadows also come with a built-in mirror, making them even more convenient to carry around!
