Don’t worry, we have the easiest tips for you to get the best smoky look in your eyes and frame your look with a ‘ smokey eyes ‘ makeup that you will want to wear as soon as possible.
It’s time to take a look at all the eyeshadows you have at home and choose the shades with which you will work. Although darker tone colors such as hazelnut or black are generally chosen , you can try alternative colors such as emerald green or merlot red .
This technique consists of being a much more intense makeup at the root of the eyelash that opens in color to the outside . Therefore, work the water line , the one in which it is in contact with your eye, with a dark eye pencil , with which you will create a deep base of ‘make up‘.
With a cream eye shadow also in a dark tone, depending on the colors you have chosen, apply a thick line on your eyelid in the part closest to the eyelashes. Then blend it down the mobile eyelid with a brush or the pad of your finger. Repeat this process on the lower eyelid with a slightly thinner line with that last touch of blur to get no cuts between the color and the skin.
Apply translucent powders to the eye contour since, since you are going to use different pigments, you can remove any pigment that may fall and stain your skin.
Take the main shade of the eye shadow you have chosen and apply it on a brush . Remove the excess and spread on the mobile eyelid and the lower eyelid over the cream shadow, exerting light pressure .
Select a new color that will serve as a somewhat brighter transition . A somewhat easier trick is to use translucent powders instead of a new shade. With a loose hair brush , work this new shadow or loose powder where the dark color ends, trying to erase the previous line without reaching the eyebrow, which will create a spectacular blur effect.
