Go-to Gold Smoky Eye

  Gold Smoky Eye

Hello everyone and welcome back to my blog! I hope you’re all having an amazing new year! Mine has been good, a bit rough with my hubs out of town. But I’m pushing through and putting my mind to work. Today’s tutorial isn’t anything crazy or amazing to the average person, but this is my go to Smokey eye. With this makeup look, I feel like I can do anything. This is seriously the look I do all the time, weather I’m in a rush or have unlimited time to do my makeup. There are a few other looks I do pretty often, but I’m trying to branch out and do more fun, creative looks!

Today I did my face makeup before I did my eyes, so I primed my eyelids with my concealer. I used the Carli Bybel palette and set my lids with the bone cream shade. In the crease I used the camel brown shade on a soft fluffy brush, creating depth and shadow. I built the color up until I had a smooth transition with no harsh lines. In the outer corner I used the dark brown shade to really deepen things up. I love when I have a strong outer crease with a sharp edge. On the lid I used the golden bronze “highlight” color on a wet brush packing it on and gently fading it back towards the outer corner. On my bottom lash line, I used the dark brown on the outer half and the gold shade on the inner half.

Thank you so much for stopping by to check out this tutorial! I hope you liked it, and I hope you’ll comment and let me know what you think of this look. Please feel free to share this post with your friends and family or any makeup lovers out there!
