HOW TO GET THAT SEXY SMOKEY EYES LOOK

Smokey eyes have always helped in creating a very glamorous, sexy and attractive look. If you want your eyes to do all the talking, flirting and 'things', the smokey eyes look is it! I'm going to show you how to get that gorgeous look. Note that the best way to create smokey eyes is by using make-up brushes (and not your finger tips). There are different methods of achieving this look with different results but this is what I thought is the easiest. Also note this is to get smokey eyes with a pop of colour.


STEP 1: Coat your bottom inner lash line (section 1) with a black liner pencil. If the tip’s too sharp, dab onto a tissue first. Next, prep lids with a balmlike eye cream for easy blending, and coat the top and bottom lash lines (sections 2 and 3) with the same black liner pencil.

STEP 2: Layer a dark blue pencil over the black in sections 2 and 3. Then use a shadow brush to blend the two shades up and over the lid (section 4) and along the bottom lash line. (Instead of blue, you can use gold, purple, green or any other dark color depending on the finished look you're going for)
STEP 3: Using a separate brush for the highlighter color, apply performance eyeshadow ( as shown below)  in the crease (section 5) and blend. Finish with mascara.
This is to get the look below. Will probably share more methods and more results with you later, just stick with me, ok? Really hope this helps.

Coat your bottom inner lash line (section 1) with a black liner pencil. If the tip’s too sharp, dab onto a tissue first, suggests MAC makeup guru Gordon Espinet, who created the look at Just Cavalli. Next, prep lids with a balmlike eye cream for easy blending, and rim the top and bottom lash lines (sections 2 and 3) with the same pencil.
