The smokey eye makeup style has been popular for some time now. You can recreate this look flawlessly by following these tips:
Apply your makeup
Don’t add concealer until after you are done with the eyes. This helps prevent dark eyeshadow stains under the eyes. Don’t forget to apply your blush as well because this helps you to measure how much eyeshadow you need.
Don’t forget to prime your eyelids
Use a base for your eyeshadow to make the smokey eye look smoother and stay longer. After applying primer, let it dry before adding the eyeshadow. This is crucial to creating a dramatic design.
Use a neutral shadow
Use it on the entire eyelid area and pick a color that blends with your skin tone. Use a black eyeliner to line the eye. Cover the lashes completely. Next, use a small brush to go over the line you created to soften it.
Apply your black eyeshadow
Apply over the softened eyeliner and smudge it. Next, apply the blending shadow. Pick a base eyeshadow that blends with the other colors you have picked. Start applying it on your lash line and reach the lid crease. End it under the brow bone. Apply the black shadow to your bottom lid and encircle the eyes with the shadow.
