Smokiest smokey eyes with dark soul

post #1 of 44
Thread Starter 
Someone requested a tut on this look on another board, so I thought I'd post it here aswell






Products used:
- MAC prep + prime face
- MAC sff foundation in NW20 + a bit of NW35
- Make up store cover all mix
- MAC blot powder loose
- Make up store tri brow
- UDPP
- MAC sharkskin shadestick
- MAC dark soul pigment
- MAC fairylite pigment
- MAC blacktrack fluidline
- MAC graphblack technakohl
- MAC plush lash mascara
- H&M brow fix
- FOB eyeshadow brush
- Japonesque eyeshadow brush
- MAC #208 brush


Put on your foundation, concelaer and set with powder. Apply UDPP to lids and blend with your fingers. Add some loose powder underneath your eyes to catch up any fallout eyeshadow.


Grab your sharkskin shadestick. It works fine with a kohl eye liner aswell if you don't have sharskin.


Apply sharkskin to lids in the rouge shape that you want your black eyeshadow to be.


Pick up some dark soul on your eyeshadow brush


Apply it to your lids over sharkskin


It should look something like this. Left eye has dark soul applied over sharkskin, right eye is sharkskin only.


Grab some more dark soul and gently apply some outside the sharkskin shape, add a little bit at the time so you don't go overboard!


When you're done, it should look something like this:


Pick up some fairylite pigment on your other eyeshadow brush


Apply it to the brow bone and inner corner of eye, near the nose bridge.


Blending time! Gently blend any sharp lines, don't over-do it thogh; the original shape should still be visible.


All blended! I added some more dark soul to enhance the shape even more. Brush off the loose powder and clean up any fallout in the inner corner of the eye with a q-tip.


Fill in your brows. Well defined brows is a must for this look.


Line your lower lashline with graphblack technakohl


Line your waterline aswell


Grab your #208 brush and pick up some dark soul on it


Smudge it between your lower lashes and over the eye liner to make it smokier and to fill in the gap between the lower lash liner and the waterline liner


Line your upper lashline with blacktrack fluidline and #208 brush


Also, put some graphblack outside the inner corner of your eye to frame the eye completly


It should look something like this


Last step is to add two layers of plush lash mascara...


...and you're done!

Re: Smokiest smokey eyes with dark soul

Thanks everyone! Glad you liked it

Dark soul can be a bit wierd to get the hang of, but if you use a dark, sticky base underneath it it goes on beautifully.

Re: Smokiest smokey eyes with dark soul

Thanks for the tut! Love the look. I'm convinced I need sharkskin shadestick now. Man I'm gonna be broke.

Trista: sharkskin is awesome under dark eyeshadows. At least they don't cost as much in the US as they do over here, I think they charge about $26 for a shadestick here in Sweden...

Re: Smokiest smokey eyes with dark soul

imperfectbeauty: I guess you could, I don't own black tied myself but I think they're quite similar, both have silver glitter in it

Re: Smokiest smokey eyes with dark soul

My take on your smokey eye. It could be much better...i think i need to smoke it out a little more but it looked great in person!! i couldn't really get any decent closeups. Here you go
