See how day developed with make-up (9)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

eyeshadow

'make-up' is the definition.
(I know that eyeshadow is a type of makeup)

'see how day developed' is the wordplay.
'developed' indicates anagramming the letters.
'see'+'how'+'day'='seehowday'
'seehowday' is an anagram of 'EYESHADOW'.

'with' is the link.

(Other definitions for eyeshadow that I've seen before include "cosmetic" , "application to viewers" , "used to put dark side into orbit" , "Face application" , "beauty aid" .)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
