Smokey Plum Eye "Tutorial"



Hi. I've been ask by a friend for the use of plum/pink type of eyeshadow. She tried to create smokey eye but all she get is red-eye-kinda look. So after I tried and experiment with my plum shadow, here's what I get. I'm not sure if this is the right look but at least my eyes doesn't look swollen with the pinky type of plum color.

Here's the easy step-by-steps from me.

Step 1 : Eye base!!! Smokey eye need some real good eye primer cause you doesn't want the black/dark color to crease after half hour. (Sorry forgot take photo of that.)

Step 2 : Use black eyeshadow to line your eyes. Thick on the upper lash line and thin at the bottom lash line. You should get something like this. Try to avoid lining the inner corner of your eyes unless you really have big round eyes.




Step 3 : Take the plum/pink shadow of your choice and layer on top of the black shadow line. Start layering from the outside of the black shadow, then on the black shadow and BLEND!




Step 4 (Optional) : Well, if you want more dramatic eyes, line your eyes again with the black shadow but don't create hard line. Try to smudge it in.

Final : Mascara and brows and you're done! Add fake lashes for some real glam look. I didn't have my glue with me with I'm doing this tutorial, so please bare with my short lashes. :(





So what do you think? This look ok? Tell me tell me!!!

love,
