Hello, my Pretties!
I've have been blogging and documenting most of my makeup looks for a little over a year now and I have never been able to successfully create a smoky eye. That is, until now. Well, maybe.
Here is a Look for Inspiration that I did attempting to do a smoky eye for the 1,000th time.
I have no idea why a smoky eye is so hard for me to do. I've tried it so many times and each time it was a fail. I think this look is the closest I have come to a successful smoky eye. And it still needs some work!
I have a Lorac eyeshadow/eyeliner pencil that is black and sparkly. That is what I used on my lid. I applied it heavily and smudged it out with my finger. I then applied a bronze shadow in my crease and blended it out as much as I could with an eyeshadow brush. My brow high light was just a matte flesh tone with added matte white right below the curve of the arch of my brow.
And here is the point where I come to you for tips on how to create a great smoky eye. What is it that you do? I would love and appreciate any tips or tricks that you might like to share with me to help a girl out.
Wow, this just might be my shortest post ever!
Luv & Luk,
