Their are so many different ways to wear eye make-up. This article will explain how to apply your eye make-up to have a smoky look.

Difficulty: Easy
Instructions
  1. Step 1

    Buy black eye liner. If you do not already have black eye liner, then get some. Apply the black eye liner around your entire eye. I like to use Maybelline New York define-a-line to outline my entire eye making sure to keep the eye liner line thin.

  2. Step 2

    Retrace. After you have outlined your eye in black eye liner, retrace the top of your eye to make a thicker line of black. Be careful not to get to much on, in other words apply as needed.

  3. Step 3

    Apply white eye-shadown. Next you will want to use some white eye-shadow. Put the white eye shadow on top of your eyelid first, after that you will want to carefully go over the black eye liner with the white eye shadow, by using only the tip of the shadow brush.

  4. Step 4

    Apply mascara. Finally get out your black mascara and apply as usual. Whew la! You should have a sexy, smoky look that will be sure to capture tons of attention from many onlookers.

Tips & Warnings
  • I choose very black when selecting my mascara color.
