Therefore, when creating makeup, it is very important to pay special attention to the eyes and be able to effectively emphasize their natural beauty.
Smoky eye makeup is very popular today. It is also called smoky eyes. In a similar way, both Hollywood stars and simple, but no less beautiful women paint their eyes. Such makeup can make the look more mysterious, exciting and looks especially beautiful at parties. But most importantly, it fits absolutely any eye and hair color, which makes it versatile. It will look spectacular on brunettes, suitable for a beautiful blonde and even for red-haired green-eyed girls. It is easy to create such eye makeup.
First, draw in the upper and lower eyelids with a soft black pencil. You can use an eyebrow pencil. At the same time, the eyeliner line may be uneven, but it must necessarily follow the growth line of the eyelashes, since the absence of gaps and light spots is the main rule of smoky eyes. The lower eyelid can be emphasized with a thinner line, while it is very important to paint over the inner part of the eyelid, which is located above the eyelash line. Do not be afraid that your eyes will appear narrow; when applying shadows and mascara to the eyelashes, they will only visually increase.
Too small eyes can be visually expanded if the eyeliner line of the lower eyelid is not slightly brought to the inner corner of the eye
It is very important to carefully blend the border of the eyeliner, as smoky eyes make-up involves barely noticeable transitions. To do this, use black matte eyeshadow. Apply them first to the upper eyelid and blend with a brush over the entire movable part so that the clear line of the eyeliner is not visible. Then blend the pencil on the lower eyelid, but not so large.
Apply gray eyeshadow to the border of the black eyeshadow and to the inner corner of the upper eyelid. Blend it again so that no sharp transitions are visible. Then match the eyeshadow slightly lighter than your natural skin tone and apply it to the area under the eyebrow, blending again. Thanks to these shades of eyeshadow and careful blending, the makeup will look spectacular, and not vulgar or ridiculous.
Remember that according to the rules of good tone, lips with such bright eyes should be painted with very light lipstick. It may be shiny, but by no means pearlescent
The final stage of luxurious eye makeup is the application of mascara to the eyelashes. For smoky eyes, mascara should be both lengthening and voluminous. Color twice, first on the lower lashes, then the same number of times on the upper. This must be done carefully, but quickly. Then apply some more mascara to the roots of your upper lashes for extra volume.
