The smoky eye look is perfect for a night out, follow our easy step by step guide to learn how to achieve it.

1 Eyeliner

Start by drawing a black kohl pencil close to the upper eyelashes and underneath the eye. Don’t worry about it looking even as you’ll smudge it out with a small brush.

 

 

 

 

2 Eyeshadows

The next step is blending the kohl pencil lines with a dark grey or black eye shadow all the way up to the globe line. Finish off with a light shimmery eye shadow in the inner corner of the eyes.
