Well have you ever wondered how to do the smokey eye? Thought it was too hard too do? It is actually not as hard as you think. Choose the colors that best brings out your eyes.
THIS IS FOR GREEN/HAZEL EYES.
1. The first step is to put on primer or base, I'd recommend Urban Decay's Primer Potion ($17 at ULTA)
2. Next put a dark eyeliner on the upper and lower lash line. I'd recommend Cover Girl's Perfect Point Eyeliner in Plum Velvet($3 dollars at most stores)
3. Now soften the edges of the liner with another make up brush
4. Now for the shadow, choose the dark plum/mauve color you can find. sweep that on your lid.
5. now blending upward add a medium toned purpleish shade in the crease.
6. Almost done, now add still blending upward a lighter purple shade just above the crease, and the lightest on the brow bone,
7. go back and take the second lightest and line the bottom lashes
8. now you want lengthened eye lashes, use a lengthening eye mascara, rimmel londons glam eyes would work best.
Have fun finding your best shades.

Your Eye Color and What colors bring them out.
Haven't you always wondered what colors best bring out your eye shades? I did until I started looking up stuff, and messing around with colors. Now I am sharing them with you. Have fun mixing and matching the fun colors and shades around.
Blue Eyes: I wish I had blue eyes, it is the most celebrated color. Blue exist because low quantities of melanin and the action of chromosome 15 makes the iris reflect light much as a lake would.
The colors that you can use are in favor of the warmer tones. Such as navy, smokey gray, chocolate, apricot, or copper.
Green Eyes: Chromosome 19 affords you this pretty rare eye color.
The colors that you'd want to use are from mauve to plum, all red based hues add fire to your gaze. Opposites attract, as they say. . .
Gray Eyes: This is a blank canvas shade. What your eyes to appear blue? Use gray or copper. Feeling Green? Dress in Lavender or Aquamarine.
Hazel Eyes: Warm, sand tones ranging from beige to brown and very dark eyelashes will complement these brilliant peepers as well as, plum, purple, and green-bronze tones.
Black: The rainbows spectrum offer itself to you, but beware of too light or pearly tones that can unflatteringly discolor the white of your eyes.
Midnight Blue, dark gray, brown or buff tones will accentuate the mystery of dark eyes.

Lets get things started.
Hey I'm Tori. I am a senior in high school. I got into make up intensely like a couple years ago. I love doing all of the different looks, goth, preppy, girlie, celebrity, and so much more. This not only includes make-up but hair as well. I am making this blog for people who don't know how to put on make up or do hairstyles, for people who want to learn how to do different looks, for people who just have trouble with make up and hair in general. I take requests and suggestions. I can also give advice if you need it. Thanks for looking at my blog. I will start taking suggestions immediately.
