It is the time of the year when we all want to look good for the holiday parties and family photos.
Trying a new look can be scary. However, the classic look that never gets old is smoky eyes. It is intense, versatile and low-maintenance.
Here is how to get smoky eyes:
1. First you need to define the shape and add intensity to the lash line. Do it by tracing the upper lid with a soft black pencil.
2. Next, you must diffuse the line. Use your fingertip to gently smudge it.
3. Now apply inky powder to the crease of the eye. For this, use a medium-size domed brush. Then blend it downward for a wash of color over the entire lid.
4. Next, you will need a smaller brush with firm bristles. Use it to press a gunmetal shade into the lower lash line.
5. In order to lighten the overall effect, you need to apply a silver powder to the inner corners.
6. Using a small, easy-to-maneuver wand, pile on the mascara.
7. Avoid heavy lip color. Go for a glossy or balm-like neutral.
