I love smokey eye makeup.It adds a lot of drama and intensity to the eye look.Previously,I have done tutes on is a smokey looks but they are generally mono shade ones.This time,I was playing with Lord n Berry eye pigment and came up with this look.It is a combination of warmer and cooler tones and I loved the effect.
Here is the Step by Step tutorial of the same:
1).Apply Kajal on he lids below the crease on prepped and primed lids.Applying a primer is quite helpful as it prevents the black from creasing and fading.You don’t have to be neat or precise.
2).Smudge the kajal’s line.Not the main intense area but kind of softening the edges.
3).Apply black eye shadow in the crease and in the area that you blended the kajal in.
4).Smoke out the black eye shadow blending it upwards.Take it higher just leaving space for the brow bone highlight.
5).Apply a shimmery shade blend out the harsh edges and highlighting the brow bone.6).Now apply a golden brown pigment in the center of the lids and blend out the harsh edges.Make sure that you apply it quite heavily as the tends to loose its intensity after a while.Also,apply the black eye shadow in the lower lash line as well.
7).Now,use a silver-white cool toned pigment to highlight the inner corners of the eyes as well as for highlighting the brow bone.Define the brows.
8).Apply a thick layer line of kohl on the lids and smoke it a bit by smudging it with a brush.Line your waterline.Apply oodles of mascara.
This look requires minimal products and hardly takes 5-7 minutes.
