- Prep your eyelids with primer to be sure your makeup lasts. Apply primer from the lash line to the brow bone before applying any shadow.
- Line your upper lashes with a dark liner. Deep purple or dark charcoal in liquid or gel form work well. Line your upper lash line making the line a bit thicker in the center of the eye compared to the edges.
- Apply a lighter liner to your lower lash line. Use an eye pencil, powder liner or eye shadow applied with a tiny brush. Pick a lighter hue but similar color to the liner used on the upper lash line.
- Add a light eyeshadow such as pale purple to your eyelid from the lashes to the crease. Select a darker shade of purple eye shadow and apply directly into the crease.
- Dip your eye shadow brush into the dark color and apply it gently over your eyeliner and then blend upward. Use a very small amount of shadow at first and blend carefully toward the crease. Continue applying more dark shadow until you get the desired smokey effect. You can apply a lighter color of purple or berry from the crease to the brow bone for extra drama.
- Use an eyelash curler to curl your lashes. Apply two coats of black mascara. With all the attention on your eyes, you don't need much more makeup. A rosy blush and glossy pink lipstickcompletes the look.
