Urban Decay: SMOKED

March 14, 2013

"Can you give me a sexy smokey eye???" is the question allot of my clients ask me.  As a result I must say, I really really like the SMOKED palette from Urban Decay. So that has been my favorite go-to for a sexy smokey eye. 

A smokey eye does not always mean black or grey, it can be plum, teal and col-bolt blue. With this palette you definitely get options. The colors are rich and super pigmented but hey I'm talking about urban decay so I really would expect nothing less! 


Here is one of my pretty clients from earlier this week. I gave her a smokey eye using ROCKSTAR and a little bit of LOADED on the bottom!


She loved it!!!

A classic Smokey Eye

January 16, 2013

Who wants a sexy smokey eye every now and then...I DO!!! I know achieving a smokey eye can be a bit tricky and of course you don't want too look like a raccoon lol. So here is a few tricks to achieve a smokey eye that I'm sure you will approve of.

To create a classic smokey eye I love, love, love M.A.C. black eye shadow called Carbon

As I have talked about before you should prime you eye first and for this I recommend a NYX Jumbo pencil BLACK BEAN
After applying the Black jumbo pencil to the eyelid.
You want to use a flat bush and put the mac carbon or any black eye shadow you have and place it on top of the lid you primed.
after that you can blend it out a bit with a fluffy shading brush.

I chose not to put liner or lashes on so you can see the eye shadow smoked out and blended


As always, I hope this helps... tootaloo
