While dark, smokey eyes are beautiful (and some of my favorites where makeup looks are concerned), they can be a bit enclosing. At times, they can also make your eyes actually appear smaller.
So in this video, I'm going to show you how to avoid all that, while still keeping the beautiful dark and smokey intensity of the deep eye shadow colors and liners used.
Oh, and I busted out my IT Cosmetics Naturally Pretty Vol.1 Matte (that's a mouthful) palette again!
If you missed the first tutorial using this palette earlier this week, check that out here and get all the details about the palette (swatches, etc.) in this recent post here.
It's seriously SO versatile.
So don't miss the video below for the full tutorial! I hope you all love it!!

Gorgeous look, it really suits you!
ReplyDeleteThat's really cool that you were able to create a look that is both smokey and yet brightening. I agree that those two do not typically go together. This look is gorgeous and makes your blue eyes look incredible.

Hi there. I've been using It Cosmetics for awhile now as well. Just love them. So glad Jamie brings them to TSC here in Canada.
ReplyDeleteI am loving the new Brow powder gel liner in auburn. Finally a shade for a redhead. The Celebration foundation is great too. You mentioned the CC Cream. Does it have medium coverage? Thinking it would be great for the summer.
At XMas she brought a cute palette just for us Canadians. With shadows, blush, bye bye under eye and lip stains. A winner for sure. The makeup is also good for you. No Talc etc. Which is an added bonus.
I have enjoyed your It look tutorials so far.
Have a great weekend

ReplyDeleteGreat ideas, lovely.makeup ideas
ReplyDeleteEye colour depends to a great extent on the pigmentation of the iris. Normally blue eyes, in addition to the iris pigmentation, are also caused by a factor called the Rayleigh scattering of light that makes the sky appear blue. Low levels of melanin in the iris make it appear dark thereby reflecting shorter wavelengths of light causing the blue color. While eye make-up for all types of eyes is not constant or easy, for people with blue eyes make-up is easy because any contrast color would highlight blue eyes and make them appear beautiful.
