no matter what her complexion. Here is how to get that perfect smoky-eyed look!

carefully outline your eyes (up and down) with black power eye shadow.
black pencil.

the effect.

gold eye shadow on the inside of your eyelids, blending it outwards.

pencil on your upper and lower eyelids, over the black outline.

black liquid eyeliner, to make your eyes stand out further.

For beautiful lashes,
use an eyelash curler to curl them upwards and open your eyes. Hold your lashes
gently with the curler for at least 30 seconds and then apply mascara
immediately.
8.
Apply at least two coats
of mascara to your eyelashes. When applying mascara, remember to emphasize the
roots of your lashes. Hold your brush horizontal and apply mascara to your
upper lashes with firm, outward strokes. Apply mascara to the top of your
lashes as well, by looking down into a magnifying mirror. When applying mascara
to your lower lashes, do so with the tip of your mascara wand, using side to
side strokes.

let it dry and then comb through your lashes so they don’t stick together.

definition.
Colored Contacts
Invest in a pair of colored
contact lenses. They add depth to the eyes, and the right color can do wonders
for you. In addition, the price of colored contact lenses has reduced
dramatically. If you have perfect vision, you may find looking after contact
lenses a hassle, but then again, there is no gain without pain ! And if you
have an eye number, there is really no reason why you shouldn’t get colored
contacts - so if you’ve been considering buying a pair.
Dark Circles
Get rid of dark circles. Place a potato slice on each eyelid.
Remove it after around ten-fifteen minutes. You could also use cucumber slices.
Conceal dark circles
with the help of a concealor. After applying concealor to your under eye area,
proceed with foundation application. Finish off with a dusting of compact
powder. This ensures that the concealor blends in well.
Puffiness
No matter how perfect your eye make-up, its just not going to look
good if you’ve got puffy eyes. Here is what you can do to reduce puffiness:
Take a bowl and fill it up with ice cubes and water. Splash this
freezing cold water ten times on your face, and another ten times on your eyes.
Do this at least a couple of times a week. Not only will your puffiness reduce
dramatically, but your face will start glowing as well. Follow up with
moisturizer and under-eye cream
