• Step 2:Choose a medium/dark eye shadow. Using a standard eye shadow makeup brush, apply this shadow from the upper lash line in an upward motion, covering the entire eyelid area. Using a smaller eye shadow brush, repeat this step on the lower lid. Apply this shadow right underneath your eye, in a thin line close to the lash line.

Continue to Step 3



• Step 3:Using the same medium/dark eye shadow and eye shadow makeup brush, apply this shadow into the socket area, working it into the crease of your eye (the crease can be located easiest when the eye is open). Darken shadow in crease line to desired depth.

Continue to Step 4



• Step 4:Apply a “highlighter” (any lighter color desired, such as white, silver gold, etc.) with a small eye shadow brush just under the brow bone to blend with the dark shadow applied to the other areas of the eye. Also apply this shadow to the inner corner of your eye, just around the tear duct to brighten the look of your eyes.

Continue to Step 5



• Step 5:Apply eyeliner of your choice, concerning type (liquid, pencil, gel) and color (typically black, gray, brown), on your upper eyelid as close to the lash line as possible. Perfection is not necessary, as you should blend this line upward into the eyelid with a cotton swab. Repeat step on lower lid, staying as close to the lash line as possible. Short strokes are best to achieve the best result.

• Step 6:Apply mascara of your choice (a lengthening mascara is recommended) to the upper and lower lashes. This is the final touch on the “smokey eye” effect you are trying to achieve.
