7 Steps For Smokey EyesStep 1: First use an eyeshadow base or an oil-free foundation on your eyelids to help your eye makeup go on smoothly and adhere better. Step 2: Take your medium range of eyeshadow and use it on your lid and above the crease area. Do not take it all the way up to the eyebrows. On the outer corner of your eyes, keep it in an upwards motion. Step 3: Use either your shadow brush or flat eyeliner brush and place the same color of eyeshadow under your eyes as though you were lining them and bring the color upwards until it meets the color you applied to the crease area. Step 4: Smudge under your eyes with a cotton swab. You may need a second coat. If so, now is the time to apply it. Step 5: Line both your upper and lower eyelids using the
easy eyeliner method.
Step 7: Use either a dark brown or black mascara and apply with the fluffy eyelashes technique.

If you find that you need more color then use a blush in the same range of color as your lipstick.
