How to create the smokey eyes look


Here are the tips from our SANTE make-up artist:teaser-model_smokeyeyes-10x15-4e956647220da

Expression! Kajal Eyeliner

For radiant eyes, first apply a line of Kajal deep black No. 08 around the whole eye. In addition, dot a little more directly onto the lower lid. Use the special sponge at the end of the pencil to spread it softly. Eyecatcher! Eyeshadow Trio. Use the Eyeshadow Trio Smokey Eyes No. 06, perfectly tuned for this look. The sophisticated combination of anthracite and aubergine gives you the dark foundation, and the matte shade modulates into soft medium grey-brown, set off by a coolly shining highlighter.

Step 1:

For the main accent, put the dark colour on the upper lid onto the outside third of the kajal outline. Smooth out towards the eyelid fold and inwards right into the innermost corner of the eye. Follow the kajal outline on the lower lid with the eye shadow, too, and gently fade it out. For subtle daytime make-up, only apply the eye shadow along the kajal outline.

Step 2:

Apply the middle shade into the eyelid fold and spread evenly. Do the same as a light shadow on the lower lid.

Step 3:

For lovely light-and-shadow effects, put on the highlighter lightly under the eyebrow, right at the inner corner of your eye and on the inner third of the lower lid. Perfect Brow! With the Eyebrow Pencil brown No. 02 (for light-coloured hair, use blonde No. 01) fill out the eyebrows, then brush the hairs outwards and slightly upwards again. The highest point of the eyebrows should lie in the outward third.

Dramatic finale!

Mascara Volume black No. 02 magics up deep black, expressive lashes. Gently vibrating the brush, work from the root to the tips.

Helpful hint: applying several layers of mascara thickens your lashes wonderfully.
