GET THE LOOK: Dramatic Eyes

Strong, sexy eyes look modern when paired with a nude lip. Inspired by the rock star glamour of Debbie Harry and Chrissie Hynde, pile on layers of smoky, smudgy eye shadow and bring out your inner Blondie!  A vibrant lavender and amethyst smoky eye makes any eye color POP! 
Here are some looks perfect for the holidays...courtesy of smashbox Cosmetics!


Apply a tight line of jet set waterproof eye liner in MIDNIGHT BLACK along the upper lashline and the inner rim using EYE LINER BRUSH #8. Using CREASE BRUSH #10, sweep the silver shade from EYE SHADOW TRIO in TWILIGHT from lashline to brow bone. Dip brush in the darkest shade and starting at the outer corner sweep color lightly into the crease of the eye, keeping intensity at the outer corner. For added definition, pull the dark shadow around and under lower lashes using DEFINER BRUSH #15. Highlight using the white shade to diffuse and brighten previously applied silver shadow.


Apply Cream Eye Liner in CAVIAR along upper lashline using ARCED LINER BRUSH #21, then apply Jet Set Waterproof Liner in BRONZE along the lower inner rim. To electrify color, apply the eggplant shadow from Eye Palette in CLASSIFYED over lids and up to crease using DEFINER BRUSH #15, then sweep along lower lashline. Using CREASE BRUSH #10, diffuse any hard lines by blending the soft bronze shade in the crease. Get dramatic, lush lashes with multiple coats of Bionic Mascara in JET BLACK.
