Subtle Smoky Fall Makeup Tutorial
Be daring with a sophisticated smoky eye. Smoky eyes come in a variety of colors and styles, and sometimes an understated look creates the biggest impact.
This look inspires adventure as it deviates from the traditional black smoky eye. Using new Cream Stay Shadow Stick in metro, a cool slate gray, we create a unique statement that will take you from desk to date night.
Cream Stay Shadow Sticks have intense staying power, and no-budge color is exactly what you need with a deep eye look. Apply them directly to the lid and blend quickly. Once this color sets, it stays in place all day.
What gives this eye makeup an added twist is Eye Shadow in coy. Blending this gorgeous, warm, matte caramel shade through the crease creates a glowing effect and a stunning contrast with metro. Using a transition shade creates a gradual color shift from the lid.
The best part about this fall makeup is how easy it is! If you’re a smoky eye beginner, start here. And, never underestimate the power of a solid brow. Fill in your brows with Precise Micro Browliner for a polished look.
