Hey everyone! Some of you love super colorful looks, some enjoy natural looks, but as I've revealed through some of my "Questions of the Week" MANY of you love a good smokey eye. That's what I'd like to show you in this "Eye of the day" post :D It's very dramatic, not for everyday use- but would be great for a night out on the town or a big event. Enjoy!
-Apply Too Faced Shadow insurance as a primer all over lids
-Apply a deep blue matte shadow lightly all over the lid (I used the blue on the bottom row, 3 shades from the right in my Coastal Scents 42 color Double Stack Matte shadow & blush palette)
-Use black shade (I used Glam Couture pressed shadow in Night in Vegas- a sparkly black) to develop the outer V shape.
-Use a rich matte black to further deepen the outer half of the crease (I used the black in the corner of the CS palette) Blend, blend, blend!
-Highlight with a light shimmery shade- I used my Coastal Scents Hot Pot single in S03. I also used a very light touch of that on the inner part of the lid.
-Line the eyes... I used Revlon Colorstay liquid liner in Blackest Black for the top lash line, and the pencil liner in black on the bottom. I topped the bottom liner with the deep blue matte shadow we used earlier.
-Apply false lashes... This is a MUST to achieve the effect of this look. I used Ardell Invisiband Demi Luvies (Available at Sally Beauty Supply). Doesn't give you a natural look, but a fun one!
-On the lips... I used Rimmel Lasting Finish Lipstick in Metallic Seduction. I then dotted a light nude shimmer shade in the center of my lips for fullness- sorry I can't remember the exact shade I used there! Any light shimmery gloss will do :D
Thanks for stopping by my blog- and have a great day!!
