Broze Smokey Eye

When you think of the word smokey eye you immediately think black, silver, dark colors.  While this is obviously gorgeous it's also very limiting.  There are so many different colors you can use to achieve the same effect of a sexy smokey eye without having to reach for the black.  Bronzes, browns and golds for example are all great colors that can be used to create the "Victoria Secret" version of the smokey eye.   So  I thought I'd do a smokey eye video using my Naked 2 palette to show you don't have to reach for the black to pull off a gorgeous smokey eye!

I Think This May Be My Favorite Look of All Time....

So I mentioned yesterday in my Mac Haul post that I was OBSESSED with my new Sassy Moss Fluidline.  It's just the most gorgeous green, gold color ever!  It's made to be a liner but I used it all over my lid for an amazing, beautiful pop of color!  I actually wore this look to work and didn't feel like I had too much makeup on or looked like I was headed to the club.  It just was so beautiful, so much fun and so different than my normal look!  

I promised I'd make a video showing my look as I mentioned how obsessed with it I was :) I did, so check it out below!

Mac Earth Palette Look

Mac offers these great eye shadow palettes of 4 different colors that are great for beginners, or people who are unsure which colors to mix.  I recently purchased this really pretty one that has yellows and browns, all of which look great alone or mixed with the other colors.  I decided to do a look showing of the ways in which you can use these palettes, and using bright spring colors to go with it.  Hope you guys enjoy!

Gold Copper Look

I'm obsessed with my Mac Pressed Pigments.  I think they're so great, especially if you love really bright or sparkly eyes.  I recently purchased a bunch and I've been trying a variety of different looks using them.  I tried out this golden copper look and I am absolutely loving it!  It's so pretty and not too obnoxiously sparkly that you couldn't wear it to work.  I tried to use as few colors as possible so it'd be easy to do.  Hope you guys like it!

Gold/Navy Eye Look

I usually do a smokey eye with purple or black so I decided to experiment with navy.  I think navy eye shadow looks great on people with blue or green eyes especially, so if you have either of those try experimenting with this look.  I found adding a little gold really complimented the blue and adding some depth to the look.  

Check out my video to see the look!
