Smokey Eyes


Darlings, CC rarely posts about beauty and makeup, but she had to make an exception for the smokey eye... CC's BF GP is positively obsessed with this look, so CC is making every effort to duplicate it. What do you think of the smokey eye?

    maybe it's because I really-really liked heavy metal when I was in highschool, but this is my favorite make up style. thanks for sharing, lovely Carrie!

    Ooh, I don't blame GP for loving the smokey eyed look. It is literally one of my favorite makeup styles. Smokey eyes and nude lips - gorg!! :)

    I love Keira and Natalie smokey eyes!! This technique is a very sexy way to make eyes look more intense. But also is difficult!!

    Smokey eyes are beautiful. The makeup in the photos you posted is pretty. I've seen several examples of smokey eye makeup done by bloggers I follow (like London Rose, among others) and a great variety of beautiful smokey eye makeup tutorials by some of my YouTube friends and on some of the YouTube channels I subscribe to. Some of the makeup, brushes, methods and talent are awesome and some of the resulting looks are fantastic.

    admittedly, I love it. It's really the only eye I ever do ...lighter for the day ...heavier for the night. I hope it never goes out of style because it's what makes my eyes stand out the best.
