Smoky Eye Live Chat

[Danapotter]

Dana: Hello Jen!
Jen: Hello Dana!
Dana: I need help with choosing colors and how to do a smoky eye
Dana: I am not exactly sure how to do this and even when I try with the colors I bought from another company, it turns out blue tinted.
Jen: I am happy to assist you with creating a smoky eye.
Jen: For a smoldering effect, begin with a base colour on your lid to ensure smooth blending (try Brule Satin Eye Shadow). Next, pat MAC Smut Eye Shadow on the lid (use MAC brush #252), blending it up just past the crease (use MAC brush #217). Sweep a bit of the Smut Eye Shadow under the outer 1/3 of the lower lash line for soft smoky definition using the tip of the #252 brush (continue to the inner corner for a super-smoky look). Line your eyes with Smolder MAC Eye Kohl Pencil and finish with 2 coats of MAC Pro Lash Mascara in Coal Black -- thick, lush lashes are key to the smoky look.
Jen: Let me know if you would like the direct links to view shades. I'm happy to provide them for you.
Dana: Yes please, just for the eyeshadows
Jen: No problem.
Jen: Click here for the MAC Eye Shadow page.
Dana: Okay!
Dana: Also, what should I wear on my lips when doing a smoky eye?
Dana: Lipglass or lipstick or something else?
Jen: It really depends on what you prefer, and the type of look you are going for.
Jen: I recommend going with more of a sheer lipstick such as Fresh Brew Lustre Lipstick, or Oh Baby Lipglass.
Jen: Both would look great lined with Cork Lip Pencil.
Dana: Okay! I will have top check those out!

I know this was a long time ago, but I thought I'd answer anyway.
Let's take Shroom, Concrete, and Espresso. You can do something really really dramatic by using Blacktrack as a base, but that seems a waste of a pretty small pot just for experimenting. First line the top lid and while it's still wet blend it up a bit to smoke it out. You can put Concrete all over (basically just avoid the browbone and the inner eyelid). Then use espresso on the lid up to the crease, (I also like to contour my eyesocket a little bit and blend it outward past the crease) and smoke it around the bottom lashline as well.
