SMOKEY EYE PROM LOOK

HI!

Today I wanted to create a prom look as requested! This is the end result...


However, today you are in for a treat as I have created a step by step guide on how to complete this look which goes from the very beginning to the very end. EVERY SINGLE STEP. 

STEP 1:


Start by applying your primer! I used Urban Decay's Primer Potion in 'Original' and I have already filled in my brows.


STEP 2:



Start with a light colour for your transition and apply this in your crease (I used Smashbox Cosmetics 'Full Exposure' Palette - M5)


STEP 3:



 Apply a darker colour to your crease (I used the 'Full Exposure Palette - M6)


STEP 4:


Once you are comfortable with the second colour you can then apply a darker colour. I used Urban Decay's 'Naked 2' Palette - Busted. The reason we've been applying a slightly darker colour each time is so that it makes life a lot easier when it comes to blending which is what this look is all about. I also suggest that you want to create a harsher line (almost like a winged line) then use something like a card / or cellotape and put it against the corner of your eye and position it to where you would like the line to be (if you get what I mean?) 


STEP 5:


Then apply black. Black is a pain sometimes so you have to be so careful and I mean really careful because this stuff can be soooo hard to blend out!! Watch out for this bad boy! I used 'Blackout' from Naked 2. 


STEP 6:


Apply a glitter shade, I chose to use 'Verve' from the Naked 2 palette. When I applied this I dipped my brush in water and I used a brush that's been with me since day 1 ('Line Softener' from The Body Shop) I RECOMMEND THIS BRUSH 100% IT IS AMAZING FOR CREATING BOLD LOOKS LIKE THIS.


STEP 7:


Apply your under eye  colour. I just used black instead of any of the browns because when I tightline, this will look hella good. Make sure you blend it out with a blending brush. (I used 'Blackout' from the Naked 2 palette again)


STEP 8:



TIGHTLINE. This can hurt so be careful. Apply your fave liner to your waterline and the inner corner of your eye. I used a gel liner from Maybelline... I can't quite remember what it's called but it seems to work well for me! 


STEP 9:




Apply your lashes and mascara! I also used some eyelash curlers for full impact but again, this step is optional. You don't have to apply lashes but since this look is a prom look and there will be lots of photos, you will look fabulous with them! I used Eylure's 'Kimberley' Lashes.

AND YOU'RE FINISHED AND READY TO GO!

This look is definitely a darker look and you have to be so careful when you're applying it so I suggest practicing this look a few times before prom or whatever the occasion because you don't want to mess it up on the day!

Anyway I hope you enjoyed and let me know if you would like to see any other looks!

Until next time,
