How do you ladies apply smoky eyes make-up; and what make-up/colours and tools you use? Please post your way step by step. I wanna learn
You know, I nearly prefer navy to black, less harshOriginally posted by SoJess@Jan 10th, 2004 - 10:35 pm
Oooh, I love the smoky eye look when I go out. My newest thing is Navy liner - makes my light brown eyes look lighter and brighter!

You must first line your eyes with a kohl pencil both inner and outside rims. Be generous with the pencil. Squeeze your eyes hard a couple times, so that the kohl 'runs' a bit . Then use a q-tip or a smudging brush to smudge the area around the eyes.
Then apply a dark color of shadow up to the crease or a tiny bit higher (choose any dark colors. Blend also over the area you put the pencil on, and don't forget the are under the yes as well. Most people play with with greys or browns. I personally prefer plums, and lately dark blues).
Blend, blend, blend, and blend a little more... LOL Just as Lena said.
Finally put a light color on the brow bone, but keep it natural. Reapply the pencil on the inner rims if necessary.
Finally, a couple thick coats of mascara and you're ready!
I hope you understand my explanation...

MAC's Blu-Noir shadow is great for a less harsh-looking smoky eye. If you haven't tried it, it's a gorgeous blackish navy/purple. I love it
I like bobbi brown gel liner in navy or if you prefer a pencil, lancome le stylo waterproof in minuit. Both stay put very well until washed off. For navy shadow-the mac blu-noir or contrast. For mascara, try the navy in lancome definicils. What shade of light lipstick are you looking for?? I like the amplified creams from mac-they feel really good on.Originally posted by NANA@Jan 24th, 2004 - 8:08 am
