How to Apply Smokey Eye Make Up

Here is the tip :

The right eye make up can help in creating magic and getting attention to your eyes. Whether it is the right shade of eye shadow or skillfully applied mascara, the application of eye makeup is critical to your overall makeup routine. Use skillful techniques to hide flaws and play up the best part of your eyes.

You must choose a good concealer. Always choose one shade lighter than your skin tone and completely cover any dark circles. Since the smokey eye is very dark, you want to be certain you have good coverage here.


With a black eye pencil, draw a line along the upper lashes. Start thin at the inner corner of the eye gradually getting thicker as you work your way out.


As close to the lower lash line as possible, draw a thin line. You can stop either one third of the way in or take it all of the way in to the inner corner. It all depends on how dramatic of a look you want. Play around with both and see what looks best on you.How to Apply Smokey Eye Make Up


Select your color. Violets and blues are good for brown eyes and grays, browns or blues are good for blue eyes. You’ll need three colors of the same shade, a highlight that is a shimmer and flesh toned, a mid-tone that is a matte and a shade darker than your skin tone and a contour color in a matte or shimmer that is the darkest color you’ll use.


Apply the highlight, or the lightest color, directly on your brow bone down to the crease of your eye. Dab a bit of the highlight color in the duct of each eye.How to Apply Smokey Eye Make Up


Put the mid-tone on your eyelid. Start at your eyelashes and work your way up to the crease of your eye, blending with the highlight color.


With black liquid eye liner, draw a line on top of the black eye pencil. This gives it staying power.


Coat top and bottom lashes with two coats of black mascara.
