Take a small amount and place it right in the centre of your eyelid. It will definitely add that wow factor. • Clean up under the eyes and continue with the rest of your face. • Moisturise your skin and under-eye area. • Don’t skip the primer as you want your makeup to last. • Concealer is your best friend for this makeup look as your eyes will attract the attention, so make sure those dark under-eye circles are well hidden. Dust a small amount of powder to set it. • Apply your foundation; make sure it is well blended into the skin. • Now it’s time to take your smudge or pencil brush and with whatever is left on it go back and smudge your lower lash line to ensure there are no lines between your eyeshadow and concealer. It should be blended nicely. • Shape and fill in your brows - they will complete your eye makeup but don’t overdo it. • Powder the skin where needed. • Go for a bronzer or a small amount of blusher to add a bit of colour to your face. • Don’t forget, if you chose dark intense colours for your eyes you should avoid bright lip colours. Nude compliments a smoky eye really well. And there you have it; a mysterious and sexy gaze to die for! I hope you found this article helpful. Have a wonderful holiday season ladies, make yourselves look extra beautiful and enjoy practising your smoky eye look! By Asta Perkins astaperkins.co.uk @astaperkins 49
