I love a good smokey eye! There are soo many ways to do one.BUT who has 1 hour to devote to just their eye shadow? Nope not me....well not hardly ever.) .SO I thought I would share a quick and simple way to get a beautiful smokey eye with out using a lot of products,brushes or time....."The 5min Smokey eye!"
Products used:
- Loreal volume collagen lash- Estee Lauder coffee pencil
- Mac Rubenesque painpot
- Mac Mulch e/s
- Mac brushes: 239, 217
Step one:
Use ring finger (tends to give you the lightest touch ) apply a SMALL amount of Mac's Rubenesque paint pot..just dab on lid and whats left on finger lightly go up to brow bone....(do this on both eye lids)
Like in this picture--------->
TIP:use pinky finger to place under eye below lashes............
Step 2:
sweep into the color Mulch e/s by mac with the 239 brush,gently tap off excess so you don't get fall out.
Step 3: pack color on the lid of your eye over the paint pot applied earlier to the crease.don't go above the crease of the eye.
Step 4: Now take Mac 217 a stiff dome shaped brush begin to blend out the edges above the crease using circle motions or over the rainbow motion with brush of back and forth.till hard line is gone.
Step 5: use the brush as a guide line to find where you shouldn't go down any further as part of the outer 3ard corner of the eye.start at tip of nose swing up brush to edge of eye where it hits the end of outta part of your eye,that's where you stop.that way you know where you naturally should put the darker color.
Take more the Mulch color on the end of the 239,find spot in outer corner that you measured for earlier, pat a little more of the mulch color there to intensify the smokey look....
step 6: Estee Lauder coffee pencil-------
smudge along lash line into the lashes....the idea is to have a liner that blends into the lashes.....line water line with same pencil....
Step 7: Apply fav mascara ..........
Thats it.....super simple and shouldn't take longer than 5 mins!
Have fun!!!!
