Step by Step Smokey Eyes
Smoky eyes are popular style for quite awhile. Here we show you how to create the perfect smoky eyes.
The most important thing is proper blending. You must blend colors together without a flaw.
The process is easy and takes about 5 minutes.
Here’s How To Do Smokey Eyes:
Begin with a black eyeliner pencil and draw a thick line aross the top lip next to the lashes. Dont worry if it goes a little wonky, it doesn’t matter yet.
With a cotton bud, gently smudge the eyeliner to make the line hazy and over the majority of your lid.
Then get a grey eyeshadow and put it on the lid, reaching up just beyond the crease.
If you want to make the color more intense, use a wet brush to apply it.
Next, use black or very dark grey eyeshadow over the lid, but NOT above the eye crease. That is the top lid done.
Now, with the grey eyeshadow, get a thin brush, and apply it on the lower lid, right up against the lashes, from the outside corner, getting more faded as you reach the middle and stop. Tidy it up if you need to.
Then apply the black mascara in a zig zag motion across the lashes, only on the top ones to make them fuller.
Pull your eyelid and then apply the eyeliner as close to the lashes as possible.
You are done. You will look fantastic!
Some additional tips:
- Keep lips nude. It is not a good idea to apply strong makeup to both your eyes and lips. Either play up your eyes or your lips, never both. If you do, you will look like a clown.
- For a bit of fun, try a blue or purple mascara.
- Liner doesn’t have to be in pencil form.
