Smokey Saturday



For my first Smokey Saturday, I thought I would feature kind of a lighter smokey daytime (at least for me) eye.  I used a mix of high and low end products.  This is a pretty tame and typical look for me, but for those of you not typically comfortable with smokey looks or looks using multiple colors I think this could be a spring board to some pretty sexy stuff ;) Pictures were taken with my iphone, and not the HD side, sorry, but I'm getting better, I promise!

First I applied my Urban Decay Primer Potion.  For this look I used the original formula

Next I used a black creme  liner and a pencil brush to sculpt out a sort of winged shape on the outer third of my lid.  I took the color slightly along my lash-line, as well as into my crease and a bit above
.

It's important to remember that this step doesn't have to be perfectly blended as it's just being used to create a dark base for colors, and your general shape.

Over top of my black base, using a flat shader brush I packed on the MAC club dupe inside the Wet n Wild Comfort Zone palette .  I then blended with a clean blending brush and extended the color softly over my crease.



Next I added Urban Decay Tease and the peach from Wet n Wild I <3 Matte pallette as transition colors between my crease and brow bone.  


From the Urban Decay Naked 2 palette I added Bootycall on the inner portion of my eye and blended softly into the edges of the outer third color.  

I highlighted my browbone with a creamy matte color called Brulee from Wet n Wild. And my tearducts with L'Oreal Infalliable Eyeshadow in Iced Latte. 

Urban Decay 24/7 Gilde on Eye Pencil in Stash was added to my waterline and smudged along the lower lash line.

I finished with a thick winged black creme liner and a coat of Maybelline The Falsies Black Drama


And here the resulting final pics :
