Another Smokey Eye Look

Thank you Tina for being so patient during our photo shoot. :) Hope to work with you again soon....

Here is a tutorial on how create a smokey eye effect:
  1. Step 1: Choose A Color

    A smoky eye is done with one color of eye shadow. Brown, grey, or black are good choices. Dark plum or navy are for the brave. Eyeliners should match.

  2. Step 2: Prep Your Lid

    Apply a thin layer of foundation across your lids. Then sweep on a nude colored shadow or powder. Use a light shimmer if you’re feeling fancy.

  3. Step 3: Pencil In

    Using your pencil, draw a line around your eyes. If you want your smoky eyes to look especially frisky, draw on your inner rims as well. Blend with a cotton swab.

  4. Step 4: Brush Up

    Start by sweeping on a layer of shadow close to the lashline with your eyeshadow brush, diffusing the eyeliner.

    With a light hand, add another layer of eye shadow and blend upward... so the the color fades evenly from lash to crease. Line the lower eye with a liner brush and diffuse with a cotton swab.

  5. Step 5: Finishing Touches

    Use a cotton swab to blend or clean up any shadow.

    Apply two coats of mascara on curled lashes to polish the smoky eye look.
