step by step

1

Smoke It

First start with a clean, bare eye. To begin, apply the lighter shade of Eye Studio® Color Plush™ Silk Eyeshadow in Pink Persuasion as your base lid color. Then using Expert Tools™ Angled Definer Brush, apply a few coats of the darkest color from the outer corner to the middle of your lid. Now define your eye by outlining the same dark shadow on your upper and lower lash line. Blend.

2

Lengthen It

Add drama and finish our smoky eye with Lash Stiletto® Ultimate Length Washable Mascara. Lightly apply from root to tip on your bottom and top lashes. Continue building lashes until you reach your desired look. Do not let dry between coats.

3

Finish It

A nude lip is the perfect complement to such a dramatic eye. Apply lipcolor directly from tube by dotting on color to the center of your lips. Then lightly blend by dabbing your fingertip from the center to the outer corners. This runway version features Color Sensational® Totally Toffee.
