Do,s n Don't ..... 'A smokey eye story !

Don'ts 

Smokey  eyes .

I can go on for ever about what you do and don't  do when comeing to applying make-up ... But it will only fall on deaf ear , but I have to stand my corner about don't and does when comeing to applying  smokey eyes , first of all it's the most taught after style of make-up  , everybody and their Aunty wants smokey eyes ,  but it not a look that suites  evey eye shape , if you hava small and tiny  eyes, smokey will make them look smaller more like piss holes in the snow.


It also has to be done right or you can look like you have been punch in the eyes  a few times , take your time and do it right , start off soft and build up the look take time and look in the mirror , make small changes its like painting a picture ....keyword ......blend,blend,blend,and more blend , but my pet hate has got to be and  is the  point i am trying to make  is teaming smokey eyes with dark lips .






That  only work at Holloween Night ...   Fashion shows  , Rocky Horror show or editoral shoots ........
The look is smokey eyes and nude lips .... Oh yes .. Now that look stunning   ... Do you know you can use other than black for smokey eyes ? You can my chicks , try navy blues,darkest green , dark plums and very dark chocolate browns .

. And"" metal  greys are very hot and sexy at the Xmas office party seasons  how about add some glitter siliver glitter on black eyeshadow look devine its quick  , it's Stylelish and it effortless   .... Well  if you  been doing it a few times ....




So get into the party mood  , be different be creative ,  be innovation, be fabulous  remember you can go as smokey as you like  on eyes and keep  it  natural nude on lips or even lip gloss with a hit of pearl 


, golds or shimmering pink to highlight center of the lip  Yes go ahead dub some of the silver or gold  glitter you brought right in the middle of those fabulous lips of yours , just set off the Look ... Karen's Rules .
