Smokey Eye Makeup Application 

or how to make this magnificent look...

At first You need to choose the Right Colors to create your smokey image.

But, first of all make your skin perfect!:


And now you can easily create your sexy smokey eyes!

1. Prepare the eyelid.


The key to keeping eyeshadow from melting into your eyelid crease as the day goes on is to kept eyelids oil-free.

To do this start with an eyeshadow base (also called "primer").



2. Apply eyeliner.



If you're going for a typical black, brown or gray smoky eye, apply liner in one of those colors above the upper lash line, drawing line thicker in the middle of eye.

If your opting for a jewel-toned eye (violet makes a gorgeous smoky eye), line eyes with a purple, blue or deep green liner.

3. Blend in color on bottom lashes



For color on the bottom (a key smoky eye look) you'll want a lighter eyeliner.

The key is to smudge it.

You can also apply a bit of shadow to get full smudge effect.

4. Apply light base color.



Again, the key to a smoky eye is pairing a lighter base with the darker hue. Use a nice cream shade for your base.
Sweep a light, shimmery shadow over the lids to your browbone.
Try Stila's whipped eye shadows. The moist "mousse" consistency seems to stay on forever.

5. Blend in darker color, but keep dark color below the crease.



Now that you have the base and eyeliner on, it's time to get the smoky effect. You need a darker eyeshadow shade. Using an eyeshadow brush blend in color starting at your lash line, blending up. Make sure to blend color into the lash line so the eye liner disappears. Stop deep color at crease.



6. Doublecheck your work



Make sure eyes match and blend color with a Q-tip if need be.

7. Finish with several coats of volumizing mascara.



And You have your perfect Smokey Eye Look in 5 min!

mneera says:

j says:

Ok I must say I like this alot. I hate it when you look at smokey eye stuff and it is with a dark crease. To me that is just a modified smokey eye, a real smokey eye is what you explained, a monocromatic dark look that spreads it's darkness from the lash out. thanks

esibella says:

annelise says:

Carrie says:

its good when it not too dark then u look like u got punished in the eye!!

cjsysreform says:

Love it. Can't beat the smoky eye for a sexy evening look. I like how you have some pictures of how it can be done with less drama, and others that are way out there. When I do smoky eyes I usually mix some violet shadow in with the dark gray, because violet is the best shade to set off my eye color.

Nicole Moreland says:

I love it...It brings me out more!!

Chong Vang says:

Its a beautiful thing!
Amazing idea!
I love it!

NO! That is too much!

tess Graham says:

Katie says:

Ugh, I'm so tired of that Natalie Portman photo. She's stunning, but that makeup makes her look weird, and that pic of Jessica Alba makes her look like a hooker. Only Keira can pull it off.
