Perfect the smoky eye with six easy steps

Perfect the smoky eye with six easy stepsNot all women like to draw too much attention by wearing bold makeup. A smoky eye will not necessarily overtake your entire look - adjust the colors according to your personal style.

  • With a kohl (pencil) liner - line upper lid all the way across.
  • On the lower lash line, apply liner half-way across if you have small eyes and all the way across if you have larger eyes.
  • Take a flat brush or an eye makeup sponge applicator and moisten - smudge dark shadow across the penciled line.
  • Add a layer of the same eye-shadow up to your crease but not above.
  • Use a light, creamy color to accent your brow bone.
  • Mascara!!! Two to three coats will finish this look.
Bold: black, navy, deep brown
Subtle: Sage green, medium charcoal, plum
