Simple Black Smokey Eyes.

Just keep in mind that "Smokey Eyes" is a technique and NOT a color.

This technique can be created in any color of your choice.

1. Prime eyes using Urban Decay "Primer Potion"
2. Apply NYX Jumbo Eye Pencil Liner in "Black Bean' as a shadow  base.
3. Apply Mac "Carbon" eyeshadow to lids using BareMinerals shadow contour brush
4. Apply Mac 'Carbon" shadow to bottom lids using BareMinerals Smudge brush.
5. Blend eyeshadow using a blending brush( i used a no name blending brush i bought at a hair show) and blending shadow upwards in the crease and the brow bone so the color slighlty fades away as it reaches the brow bone.
6. You can choose whether or not you want to blend your shadow outwards giving it that "wing out" appeal or you can blend the shadow inwards ( like I did) ending the shadow exactly above the lids ( like I did).
7. Apply a matte white shadow with a pencil brush ( I used a shadow from my Manly eyeshadow palette) to the brow bone and blend.
8. Apply BareMinerals "Cultured Pearl" shadow over the matte white shadow to highlight the brow bone.
9. Line Waterline using NYX "white" eyeliner pencil (I did) or a black eyeliner pencil for a darker look.
10. Apply Dior iconic 090 (black) mascara.
11. Line brows using Anastasia Brow powder.
12. Apply Mac "Margin" blush to cheeks using BareMinerals "angled face" brush.
13. Outline Lips using a nude Lipliner.
14. Apply Mac "viva glam Gaga 2" lipstick to lips.
15. Apply any lashes of your choice.

HAPPY
GLAMMING :)
