Not only that, there are many products on the market that provide step-by-step instructions.
Feeling more confident but just not sure what mixture of products will work well together? In my rounds of internet searching, i have come across a very helpful little guide from House of Fraser on how to create the look! With a range of products from Urban Decay, Bobbi Brown and Shu Uemura- why not check out their Beauty Outfit-Smokey Eyes
Need some help? Then look no further...
Why not check out the Estee Lauder Makeup Looks- smokey eye page for a comprehensive list of essential products and tips on how to re create this key trend simply and easily!
Its all about the smudge-technique and building up the colour with the Estee LauderPure Colour Eyeshadow in Onyx and Garnet Desire. One product you cannot be without here is a good blending brush to merge those colours together.
Not sure you are skilled enough for blending? Why not try the Max Factor Smoky Eye Effect Eyeshadow that has been dubbed fool-proof with its two pencil tips that compliment each other for that perfect mix. Or try Maybelline's video online for a step-by-step visual tutorial
Or for a DIY version, there are plenty of palettes on the market that offer quick cheats and top-tips to create the look!
I have bought several over the years- hoping to find one that works well for me and doesn't make me look like I have got a black eye!
My favourite is:
Benefit Smokin Eyes Palette £28.50. Not only does it come with handy instructions, it includes everyhting else you need for eyes and eyebrows. Complete with tweezers, Benefit's own Brow Zing brow shaping wax and a eyeliner pencil! There are 3 eyeshadow colours- pink highlight for the corners of your eyes, the pewter base colour and then the all important deep charcoal.
