How To Get Smokey!

 

The smokey eye is one of my favorite eyemakeup looks!

It's a little tricky to achieve at first, but with some practice, it's well worth the look and by choosing the right colors, can be very versatile.

Below, I've posted a picture tutorial to help walk you through this look:

 

1. Begin with a good primer; I used NYX;

2. You'll need three brushes: your shadow brush, a smudge brush and a blending brush;

3. Begin with your shadow brush and dust some black shadow over your entire lid;

4. With your smudge brush and the black shadow, use the black shadow to contour your entire eye;

5. With your blending brush, use a copper or brown shadow and begin applying it to your lid starting in your inner eye crease, blending the black shadow in an upwards and outward motin.

6. Use a concealer to clean up any fall-out; and your favorite liners to line your water-line and your upper lid, to bring the shadow together.
