Smokey eyes are a classic and sultry makeup look that will never go out of style. It’s the perfect look for a night out, a special occasion, or just to add some drama to your everyday makeup routine. Smokey eye makeup can be adapted to suit different occasions and personal preferences. You can experiment with different eyeshadow shades, eyeliner styles, and techniques to create a smokey eye look that is perfect for you. To begin with, here’s the eye makeup tutorial for you to create the perfect smokey eye look.

Steps to Create a Perfect Smokey Eye

Step 1: Prime your eyelids
Before you start applying your eyeshadow, it’s important to prime your eyelids. This will help your eyeshadow to stay in place and prevent any caking or creasing. You can use Makeup Studio’s eye primer with a long-lasting formula to get a smooth and soft texture to put your eye makeup on. Apply a small amount of eye primer onto your eyelids and blend it in with your finger or a brush.

Step 2: Apply a light base eyeshadow
To create a smokey eye, you’ll need to start with a light base eyeshadow. This will help to create a smooth and even base for the rest of your eyeshadow. Choose a light, neutral shade that is slightly lighter than your skin tone. Apply this shade all over your eyelid, from your lash line to your brow bone. Find a wide range of shades for your base from Makeup Studio’s eyeshadow range.

Step 3: Define your crease
Next step in the smokey eye tutorial is to use a slightly darker shade. Define your crease by applying the eyeshadow in a windshield wiper motion. This will help to create depth and dimension to your eyes. Start by applying the eyeshadow at the outer corner of your eye and blend it inward, stopping about three-quarters of the way across your eyelid.

Step 4: Apply a dark shade to the outer corner of your eye
The secret to a perfect smokey eye is to create the smokey effect by applying a dark eyeshadow to the outer corner of your eye. Use a small brush to apply the eyeshadow to the outer V of your eye. Then, blend it inward toward your crease. Use a light hand and blend carefully to create a seamless transition between the shades. You can pick up eye makeup brushes from Makeup Studio for the best finish.

Step 5: Apply eyeliner
Eyeliner is an essential part of the smokey eye look. Use a black or dark brown eyeliner to line your upper and lower lash line. For a more dramatic look, you can also apply the eyeliner to your waterline. You can go with fluid or creamy eye liner as per your choice from Makeup Studio’s eyeliner range.

Step 6: Smudge your eyeliner
To create a smudged effect, use a small brush to smudge the eyeliner along your lash line. This will help to blend the liner with your eyeshadow and create a smokey effect.

Step 7: Apply mascara
Finish off your smokey eye look with mascara. Apply several coats of mascara to your upper and lower lashes to add volume and length. For voluminous lashes you must pick up mascara from Makeup Studio’s wide range and take your smokey eye makeup a notch higher.
