Like all makeup tips, you must always start by applying foundation to your eyelids and the parts under your eyes. Make sure to choose the right shade that matches your skin tone.

The next step is also very important so you must consider it carefully which is choosing the color of your eyeshadow in three tones or more. The usual colors for smoky eyes are the black or gray tones. However, you could also make it work out with a brown or violet color. For the color of your eyeliner and mascara, opt for the darkest hue. If you want to try the brown color for your smoky eyes, choose the darkest brown hue.
Now that you have chosen the colors and prepared all the necessary things to get you started, it is time to apply on the eyeshadow. Close one of your eyes and from your eyeshadow palette, draw a line on your lower lash lines. After that, pick the medium tone from your palette and dab it above your lid creases up to your brow bones. Then sweep the lightest tone around the corners of your eyes to make them seem larger.
For the finishing touches, apply an eyeliner and blend it with your eyeshadow by using a cotton swab or just by using your finger. After that, curl your lashes and swipe your mascara onto them.
