Try the Wet n Wild trios, they have picture instructions on the back :) also I wouldn't use a white for your browbone unless it was a sheer white, as it would look very harsh. Try a light champagne shimmer (shimmer, NOT glitter) or a matte creamy color instead. For basic eye makeup, a general rule of thumb is lightest color on your browbone, medium color on the lid, and darkest color in your crease :)

Crease should be the darkest. Lid medium. And brown bone very light.

Lid color - virtually anything
Crease - mostly matte to blend/transition color
Deeper/darker outer crease/ "v" - darker than the crease or even black, can be matte, satin, slight shimmer.
Brow bone is usually natural. Depending on how much shimmer is going on your eyes. If you have a mostly matte eye look you could have a matte or satin color. If it's mostly shimmer, try a matte brow bone color. Get creative, look at pictures, and have fun with it :)
