Choose your Favorite colors.

Well, unlike makeup you have freedom to choose the collection of colors to apply on for making smoky eyes, although you will need to have three shades of similar hue in order to get desired results. The goal of classic smoky eye is achieved with black and gray, but bronze and brown are also considered to be a good choice.

Green eyes appeared to be good particularly with a gray or plum colors, while blue eyes look more attractive with gold or copper colors whereas brown eyes are perfect with shades like navy or gray. For better results it highly recommended that you choose merely all three shades of each color like LIGHT color, MEDIUM base color, and a DARK smoky color. You should also avoid choosing gaudy and bright colors that can cause mess, and for girls with very fair skin darker colors.

Use the right supplies.

Although it may be quick and easy to choose the first three complementary shades of eyeshadow you find with a sponge applicator, the perfect smoky eye is created using the right supplies.

Using loose powders is always a good choice and a nice tip to create smoky eye as it has the ability to make a perfect blend. We also have a choice to use pressed powders and cream shadows, since loose eyeshadow yields good effect, it is considered to be a rational one. Using pitch-black eyeliner accentuates your smoky eye look other than that you have an option to use pencil, cream or liquid eye-liner, instead. Cream and liquid eyeliners give a very smooth finish, whereas a pencil eyeliner gives a softer look. Make sure that you use quality makeup brushes resulting in a nice blending effect. The best makeup brush that most of the makeup artists recommend for a smoky eye is a domed eyeshadow brush, which is rounded at the top. Rest assure that you have applied concealer and eyeshadow to your lids before applying smoky eye. Use a concealer brush for the purpose.

Applying your face makeup.

Before putting on smoky eye, you should create the base. Apply concealer under your eyes and on darker spots, and then apply foundation over the top to smooth things up.

You also have an option to apply blush or bronzer on face. It is suggested to use large fluffy brush to apply bronzer onto the hollows of cheeks. Apply blush to cheeks for more charismatic looks. It is worth mentioning here to apply both lightly, for more natural and smoother effect. Make sure your eyebrows are in good shape and color, as it enhances the after effect of smoky eyes.

Applying your highlighter.

Highlighters do more than giving skin a soft, smoother and luminous finish. They also emphasize facial contours and minimize certain features, creating greater balance and harmony through a few clever optical illusions. Highlighter is the lightest among three of eyeshadows. Using eyeshadow brush, apply highlighter on inner corner of both upper and lower eyelids with gentle hands and give soft touches under your eyebrows from beginning to end. This will lay the perfect pitch for rest of your work and make things easier.

Putting on medium shade.

The very next step is to take the middle eyeshadow shade and apply it over your entire eyelid. Make sure that you have made a perfect blend with the highlighter at inside corner so that it may not have any immediate change in effect in order to make things smoother and give it more natural look. Apply it in upwards direction to the natural crease on your eyelid and not all the way through the highlighter underneath your eyebrows.

Begin adding darkest colors.

Start at the outside corner of your eyes, and sweep in ‘C’ direction from around halfway inwards from the outside of your face on the eyelash line and halfway inwards on the crease of your eyelid.

The darkest part should always be at the upper edge of your eyelash. Whenever you need to apply more of your darker shadow, start from that point in inwards or upwards direction. Don’t apply the shadow too far in. You might not want the ⅓-½ of your eyelid to have any dark shadow. This will result in an open and bright look to your eyes. You can also sweep your dark eyeshadow towards the end of your eyebrow. Make sure that the outside corner of your lash line are dark since it gives your eyes open and stand out look. Try a little of your dark shadow under your eye onto your lower lid. This will help to balance the darkness out on the top of your eyes.

Blending shadows well.
 

Start by blending the lightest colors. It’s important that your medium (lid) color does not appear to have any harsh divide with your dark color. Gently move your brush in a “C” shape in order to get smooth and flawless effect. Blend the dark crease shadow towards your brow-bone in outwards direction. Make sure it should fade into your skin, and does not have any significant overlap on your highlighter under your eyebrows.

Adding eyeliner.

If you want a gorgeous cat-eye look, start applying your eyeliner from the inside corner lash line towards the end of your eyebrow. End it slightly before the edge of your eyeshadow where the darkest part starts. For a blurry look draw a dark line across the top of your lash line and then use your ring finger. This procedure will improve the smoky eye looks.

In order to give it more smoky look tight-line your eyes. This is when you use eyeliner to draw a line on the inner-rim of your eyes, under your upper eyelashes and above your lower eyelashes. This can be difficult for the reason as you need to use your eyeliner quite close to your eyeball. For brighter look even with the dark shades above you can use white eyeliner pencil to tight-line the inner rim of your eyelashes nearest your tear duct by your nose.

Add your mascara. Apply your mascara, wiggling your brush between your lashes. Don’t add more than two coats to avoid clumps and an unnatural look. Apply a single coat to your bottom lashes.

NOTE: Brush away any excess color that fell onto your cheeks during the procedure in order to get perfect results, using a jumbo makeup brush.

Putting your darkest colors along the lash-line.

This is where you have stepped into the final stage of depth touches. You need your darkest eyeshadow and your brush to sweep it along the entire part of your upper eyelash with gentle hands. The application should be dark near the roots of eyelashes and as it goes on towards the crease it should be light having a blending effect. You can opt to use a little onto the lower lash-line only near the outer edge.

Adding your middle tone.

I hope following along to this point you might have had an amazing smoky eye look you’ve ever had before to this perfection. But to make things look more prettier take your medium shade of eyeshadow and start applying from halfway up your eyelid towards your crease. You should start off from the part of your lid where it can meet your darkest color. Blend this color upwards beyond your crease and into your highlighter if you want. The goal is to get your eyeshadow lighter gradually from your lashes to your eyebrows.

Blending your colors.
 

Blend the colors that go in the direction of your eyelashes in strokes horizontally. Make sure that your lash line is the darkest part of your eyelid, and if necessary apply a bit more of your darkest shadow directly to your lash line as you blend upwards. Don’t forget to blend outwards and the edges of your eye, so that your shadow softly fades into your natural skin tone. The same should be done for the color that has been placed underneath your eyes.

Adding your eyeliner.

Use a jumbo eyeliner pencil to draw a thick line across your upper lash line only for more prominent and ultra-smoky eye look. Then, use your ring finger to blur the edges upwards.
