My Dearest Beauties,
Smokey eyes! We all love them! So sultry and sexy! Well, today I bring to you a very easy way to achieve a smokey eye look with accessible products and easy techniques. As you have already noticed, I have all my face makeup and eyebrows done.
Let's jump right in. I started by applying a thin coat of L'oreal Paris Gel Intenza Eyeliner in 01 Pure black. I applied that gel eyeliner on my lid and the outer edge of my lower lash line like I showed you in the picture below. Make sure to blend all the rough edges. This is going to ensure that our smokey eye lasts and that it is the blackest of blacks.
Once I was done with the dark base, I went in for the black shadow in this beautiful little palette from L'oreal Paris in E5 Velours Noir. I patted that black shadow all over the already black area to ensure that it will not move and make me look like a panda (not that they aren't cute). You know the drill everything applied should be then blended with a clean fluffy brush to avoid any harsh lines. Done with black, I then went in with the gunpowder shade from the palette and applied it to the center on my eyelid to create a gradient. To brighten the whole look up I finished off with some of the white shimmer shade in the inner corner of my eye. Of course, I blended everything in together with another fluffy clean brush.
You are done, except, to make a smokey eye look extra beautiful I recommend you take a bit of your favorite bronzer on a clean brush and sweep it on top of the black, kind of just above where your eye naturally creases. This will make you look like your were born with a perfect smokey eye on.
This is the look with no mascara.
I gave my lashes a very good curl and then went in with L'oreal Paris Lash Architect Black Lacquer Mascara in Black. I, then, finished it all off with L'oreal Paris Glam Shine Stain Splash in 102 Romy.
Follow these steps and you will get a beautiful smokey eye. Tell me what you think of this look in the comments below. (I will have to excuse myself for the sun, it just wasn't cooperating with me while taking the pictures, please excuse him, kidding! Excuse me for some of the orange pictures, my face contouring doesn't look ugly or dirty in real life at all).
Much love,
Samar

Beautiful makeup!!! But I should prefer you have more light eyebrow. In this way they make your face too heavy. Kisses
