Thursday Tutorial~Bronze Smokey Eye

My all time favorite shade of smokey eye is Bronze.  It's not as harsh as a grey or black smokey eye especially if you have lighter eyes, hair and brows.  I came across this tutorial on my favorite blog, The Beauty Department, and it's exactly what I do for my smoked out bronzed eye plus it features just the right products to make this look last all night!

Check it out…

This is the easiest way to make your eye shadow last all night. Because if you just use cream shadow, it will most likely travel and end up in your crease. And if you just use powder shadow, it will probably dissipate from your own eyelid oils and fade as the night goes on. But something magical happens when you put the two of them together! Here’s how:

TOOLS:

Your favorite cream shadow — we used my assistant Sophia’s (who kindly modeled for me today) go-to Benefit Creaseless Cream Shadow in Busy Signal.

Your favorite powder shadow — we used Stila Mineral Eye Shadow in Twig.

An eye shadow brush — try this classic must-have from Bobbi Brown.

STEPS:

Apply the cream shadow all over lid, crease and lower lash line.

Layer the powder shadow on top of the cream shadow. Make sure to give the brush a quick tap on a counter top to lose any excess powder that could make it go on less evenly.
