Don’t you just love smoky eyes? I do. I’ve been a fan ever since I saw them. I wanted to create a look that incorporates a smoky eye, but can be used for daytime, which is a new for the smoky eye. Here is what I used to create this look:
Left to Right:
Sonia Kashuk Shadow Brush
Urban Decay Primer Potion (not shown)
Bust (lid only)
Skimp (highlight under brow)
Naked (all over entire eye up to brow)
Toasted (from center eye to outer corner & along brow bone)
Creep (V in outer corner)
Step 1: Prime eye with eye shadow primer. I used Urban Decay Eyeshadow Primer Potion.
Step 2: Apply Naked all over entire eye up to eye brown.
Step 3: Next, apply Skimp as a highlight underneath eye brow, as shown below.
Step 4: Apply Bust all over lid & on brow bone.
Step 5: Apply Toasted from the center of the eye to the outer corner on the lid only.
Step 6: Apply Creep in the outer corner creating a V shape. Blend inside of the V to create the fading effect. Blend the outside of the V.
Step 7: Apply liquid liner & mascara.
That’s it!

This is absolutely lovely! I have always loved the smoky eye, but usually it’s done is such dark and bold colors, it doesn’t work at all for daytime. I love how you did neutral browns in this version. I do believe I might just have to try it tomorrow!
