Smokey Eye Makeup With the Best Brands
Nothing says "sultry" like flawlessly executed smokey eye makeup. And while it might seem like a complicated technique, with the right products, achieving a smokey eye look can be simple. Whether you want to create a light smokey eye or dramatic smokey eye, CVS's wide selection of brands can help you achieve the look you want.
What Is a Smokey Eye Makeup Look?
Let's start with the basics. A smokey eye is when the eyelids are heavily shadowed with dark colors. The result is a seductive, dramatic gaze that can make your eyes pop.
Why does this style work so well? When done correctly, a smokey eye can help your eyes stand out. Depending on how colorful the eyeshadow palettes, you can create a range of looks, from simple to dramatic. You can also use a variety of products, such as eyeshadow multisticks, to create this classic look.
What Do I Need to Create a Smokey Eye Makeup Look?
When it comes to creating a smokey eye look, it's necessary to have the right products.
First, you need a quality eyeshadow palette with a range of light and dark colors so you can create a variety of looks. Next, you need good eyeliner. Pencil or marker liners are a great choice to achieve a smokey look because you can easily smudge them for a softer effect. Last, volumizing mascara can help highlight your eyes.
It's also important to have the right brushes. A small, dense brush is ideal for packing on color, and a larger, fluffy brush is great for blending.
What Color of Smokey Eye Makeup Is Best for My Eye Color?
There are a few considerations when choosing the right eye makeup for your eye color.
Make sure the shades you choose complement your eye color. If you have blue eyes, for example, try using bronze, brown or gray shadows. If you have green eyes, purple shadows can enhance your eyes. And if you have brown eyes, just about any color goes.
Also consider the overall look you're going for. If you want a simple smokey eye makeup look, using one or two colors is usually enough. But if you're going for something more dramatic, experiment with a wider range of colors. You can use light smokey eye makeup by using lighter pigments for a soft daytime look.
