Smokey Eyes Makeup

Smokey eyes have been a big style for quite awhile and there's no sign this particular trend is dying. Here we show you step-by-step instructions on how to get the perfect smokey eye.The key to the perfect smokey eye is proper blending. You want to make sure colors are blended together flawlessly. Also, it's important to pair light base colors with rich dark colors. 

• Choose two colors, one dark color which will be the feature color, and another lighter color which will be the supporting color. This choice will be dependent on factors such as the color of your eyes, hair as well as your skin tone.
• If for instance you have blue eyes, colors like black, grey, dark blue, purple or violet will do nicely as feature colors for your eye shadow.
• If however, your eyes are green or hazel colored, you ought to use dark green, purple, deep khaki or brown colored eye shadows.
• Copper, grey, black or brown eye shadow also suit brown eyes.

While actually applying the makeup, you will need to follow certain precautions in order to ensure you’re able to create the right effect. Here are some of those:

• Check the eyelids to make sure that there is no oil film or there are no smudges on it in order to prevent the makeup from melting, and in turn, creating more smudges.
• Use eyeliner that is of a lighter color when lining the lower lashes. Make sure that it is well spread, and if necessary, apply some eye shadow.
• The upper lining of eyelashes ought to be lined with same color as the smokey eye makeup.
• Make sure that the supporting color blends well with the feature color for the perfect outcome. Colors like soft gold and purple or peach and emerald green are two nice combinations.
• Finally, once the colors and the eyeliner are perfectly done, add some mascara to enhance the effect..
