Sensational Smokey Eye Makeup Tutorial!!

Smokey eye makeup is a dramatic style of eye makeup that gives eyes a dark, smokey appearance. This style of eye makeup is quite popular, though it is generally not a style that should be worn every day. Instead, smokey eye makeup looks best for fancy occasions.

• Start with white shadow on the entire eyelid. Choose a medium, smokey colour for the lower lid. Apply three quarters of the way up.
• Continue to layer the colour to make darker. Add a deeper colour on top and in the crease to intensify the look.
• Concentrate on the crease. Continue to layer the shadow deeply enough to create the dramatic effect.

• Use your finger to soften the shadow.
• Using pencil or dark shadow or liner, apply in smooth strokes moving from the outer to the inner corner of the eyelid.
• To give the pencil line staying power, use a liner brush to sweep a layer of eye shadow over the pencil.

• Re-apply more shadow to add more definition. Continue layering and checking for the effect you desire.
• Line underneath the eye beginning at the outside corner, moving toward the inner corner.
• line as close to the lashes as possible.

• Soften the line using a clean finger or Q-tip.
• Smudge the line to create a smokey look, somewhere between liner and shadow. The liner can be thickened.
• Final Smokey Eye.
