| Start with a more sticky primer, apply it over the entire lid |
| Use a big brush and the highlighter shadow and apply it just under the brow. |
| Use a blending brush and draw a "C" shape over the crease using a medium tone shadow |
| Now it should look like this |
| Don't draw the "C" too far back, you want to stop where the eye ends! |
| Start from the outer corner of the eye and dab the dark loose eyeshadow on but not all the way to the inner corner of the eye |
| Use a smaller brush and make sure to saturate the primer so it won't crease |
| Blend it in, thoroughly |
| Now it should look like this |
| Use a medium size brush and dab a light loose eyeshadow on, starting from the inner corner of the eye and stop approximately just before the middle |
| Use more of the lighter eyeshadow and go further than the middle if you want to keep it lighter |
| Time to darken it a bit more using a black eye pencil |
| For a lighter look, don't draw the eye pencil all they way, stop where you want. |
| Draw it thoroughly as a eyeliner |
| Make sure you really get in between the lashes |
| Take the loose darker eyeshadow and dap it on the eye pencil to make it blend in |
| Take some dark loose eyeshadow on the eyeliner as well |
| Two coats of your favorite volume mascara |
| Now, you got yourself a couple of nice smokey eyes! |

hey great makeup, good explication xxxx
Gorgeous! More tutorials please!!!
Oh, and re: the glitter eyebrows: I use glitter liners normally - when I go to wipe it off it just goes everywhere and I have to scrub it all off for ages! If I use loose glitter for my lips or eye makeup and I drop some on my skin, I use tape to get it off - but I don't want to use tape to get it off my eyebrows in case it pulls my hair off!
I love how simple this smoky look is and it looks amazing.
This is an awesome tutorial!! I like that you gave so many step by step pictures.
Great tutorial!! xo
I like the fact that it's a plum smokey eye... it makes it imminently more wearable for every day. Beautiful!
VERY GOOD:) THX FOR THE TUTORIAL:P
Oh oh oh! Beautiful smokey eyes. Thank you for this tutorial, I am a bit lazy at applying shadow so this should give me inspiration.
Awesome tutorial! It's really great to see the actual size of the brushes, as well. ^^
