How To Create Smokey Eyes With Eyeliners

Fashion makeup artist and 88DB.com member Fionna Lau shares her tips

I haven't met anyone who does not know or does not want to have smokey eyes makeup. Everyone loves the smoky eyes look. Do you know that you can achieve the smoky make up look by using eyeliners too? Yes!

Creating smoky makeup looks is one of the most popular eye makeup and timeless makeup ever known. It is always in fashion and suitable for all types of eyes. It can be worn as a casual everyday makeup or as a formal evening make up look. This eye makeup for Asians is an absolute favourite!

This smokey eye tip is for day looks -

1) Firstly, line the rim of your upper eyelids with black eyeliner pencil, making sure it goes into the lashline.

2) Go over the top of the black eyeliner with a brown eyeliner pencil starting from the outer ends of the eye to the centre of the eye.

3) Softly shade the eyelids using short strokes and smudge the brown eyeliner with your ring finger. For the bottom eyelids, rim with the brown eyeliner instead of black to soften the smokey eye.

4) Smudge the eyeliner along the rim with your ring finger, and draw another line again. For a more intense smokey look, you can do the same as the top lid - rim with black and followed by brown, and smudge. I prefer to use a more creamy formula eye pencil as it draws easily than a waterproof eyeliner pencil.

5) Pad a little translucent loose powder over the lids to seal in the creamy formula. Although it may smudge on the bottom lid during the day.

It doesn't matter as it adds effects to the overall raw smokey eye look!
