Classic Smokey Eye

What is a classic smokey eye? Smoky eyes are a makeup technique where dark eyeshadow is placed on the entire eyelid which is blended or 'smoked out' onto the lower lashline. This effect creates a very soft and beautiful transition between the darkest and lightest eyeshadows on the eyes, visually adding a seductive element to the eye. Get the look with primarily three eyeshadows: black, gray and ivory or white.

Colorful Smokey Eye

If you're not a fan of the neutral color palette or just aren't feeling the classic brown or black smokey, try going bold with a colorful smokey. The technique is the same, the only thing that you need to add is a pop of your favorite color. Purple, blue, green or even burgundy red - any bold color, that will accentuate your eye color and outfit.
