Stick to dark browns, or greys, don't use black eyeshadow unless you are going for an emo look.Smokey Eye make-up...?
Smoky eyes can consist of any colours you want. They are most commonly created with greys and blacks, but you can also create a good purple smoky eye, a green smoky eye, etc. I jotted down some products below which are relatively inexpensive, I really hope this helps you!





NYX Single Eyeshadow - Dune (Apply this all over you lid up to crease)





NYX Single Eyeshadow - Black (Use a smaller brush to apply this colour into you're crease and work it in to the inner corner of you're eye)





Rimmel Eyeshadow - White (Apply this under you're eyebrow area, to create highlight)





Smudge a black eyeliner under your eyes, and apply a thick coating of mascara to finish the eye look. I hope this helps!
Difficulty: Easy


Time Required: 5 minutes





Prep the lid. The key to keeping eyeshadow from melting into your eyelid crease as the day goes on is to kept eyelids oil-free. To do this start with an eyeshadow base (also called ';primer';).





Apply eyeliner. If you're going for a typical black, brown or gray smoky eye, apply liner in one of those colors above the upper lash line, drawing line thicker in the middle of eye. If your opting for a jewel-toned eye (violet makes a gorgeous smokey eye), line eyes with a purple, blue or deep green liner.








Blend in color on bottom lashes For color on the bottom (a key smokey eye look) you'll want a lighter eyeliner. The key is to ';smudge it.'; You can also apply a bit of shadow to get full smudge effect.








Apply light base color Again, the key to a smokey eye is pairing a lighter base with the darker hue. a nice shade is a cream shade. Sweep a light, shimmery shadow over the lids to your browbone.





Blend in darker color, but keep dark color below the crease. Now that you have the base and eyeliner on, it's time to get the smoky effect. You need a darker eyeshadow shade. Using an eyeshadow brush blend in color starting at your lash line, blending up. Make sure to blend color into the lash line so the eye liner disappears. Stop deep color at crease.





Doublecheck your work Make sure eyes match and blend color with a Q-tip if need be.





Finish with several coats of volumizing mascara.





(a personal tip not from the site: nude lips or really soft pink lips look killer with smokey eyes :D)
