Smokey Eye ‘Til I Die!

I don’t understand if I’ll ever tire of doing smokey eyes. There are just so many different methods to work the look, such as this spin on a daytime eye for work. It’s a technique I discovered from my preferred MAC artist, Jen, utilizing products from the MAC metal desire as well as Red She stated collections.

I utilize rather a few different products for this look, however the most important MAC ones (because of their general influence on the look) are…

ANNONSE

MAC cleaned Metal-X cream shadow in Gilded Ash ($16.50): shimmery, gray-khaki cream eyeshadow

MAC Cocomotion Pigment ($19.50): shimmery brown-gold loose eyeshadow

MAC Mineralize Eyeshadow in Inter-View ($17.50): Shimmery brown, navy blue as well as bronze mineral eyeshadow trio

How to get the Look

For me, the simplest method to do a smokey eye is to layer textured products. Here, I layer powder eyeshadow, pigment as well as cream shadow.

I begin by dotting Laura Mercier Eye fundamentals in Wheat over my entire lid. It’s a primer utilized right here to prevent creasing as well as assists the eye makeup last longer.

With my finger, I blend Eye fundamentals evenly over the the entire lid.

Next, I tons a MAC 217 Blending clean by swiping it across the pan of Gilded Ash, as well as then clean the shadow onto the lid as well as just barely into the crease.

I repeat the previous step a number of times, building upon the color, as well as fading it from the lid into the crease.

Then, with a MAC 252 big Shader Brush, I apply Cocomotion Pigment into the crease as well as utilize a MAC 224 Tapered Blending clean to mellow out any type of harsh edges.

Next, I take the 252 as well as sweep MAC Ricepaper Eyeshadow beneath the entire brow, concentrating most of the color at the greatest point of the brow’s arch.

Grabbing my reliable 224, I run the clean head along the edges of the color to soften any type of obvious lines.

Then, to improve the smokey impact a bit bit more, I pat the dark brown shade from the Inter-View eyeshadow trio onto the outer third of my lid with a MAC 228 mini Shader Brush.

Still with the mini Shader Brush, I apply the dark blue shadow from Inter-View onto the outer corner, which adds a bit more depth to the look.

Time to line the eyes!

With a Laura Mercier flat Eye liner clean I smooth MAC Fluidline in Blacktrack onto the upper lash line, thickening the line as it moves outward toward my ear.

Next, utilizing the exact same clean I apply Blacktrack on the lower lash line as well as soften the edge of the line by smudging it with a makeup sponge.

Nesten der!

After covering up my dark circles with MAC studio surface Concealer in NW 25 as well as MAC Mineralize Skinfinish natural in Medium, I fill in my brows with MAC Concrete Eyeshadow utilizing a MAC 266 little angled Brush.

Then, I curl my lashes utilizing the ever-awesome Shu Uemura Eyelash Curler as well as surface the eyes by adding two coats of MAC Plushlash mascara.

All done with the eyes!

The rest of the look is super easy. To color the cheeks, I utilize my fingers to smooth on some NARS The several in Portofino.

Finally, I swipe Chanel Rouge appeal Lipstick in naive on my lips, topped off with a MAC remove Lipglass for additional shine.

I hope you have a spectacular Tuesday!
