Smoky eyes for sexy party look

Heavy smoky eyes are difficult to achieve but once you know, it creates  a striking party look.

*Apply foundation and loose powder for a flawless matt face.

*Grab a shimmery dark grey, black or bitter-chocolate brown shadow and sweep it across your eyelid. This will make sure that the focus of your look is your eyes.

*Use a soft kohl eyeliner in black and line the whole of your eyes. Dont worry about being too precise but get as close to the lashes as possible. Use a  cotton bud to smudge all the way round- you want soft blurred eyes not harsh lines.

*Finish off the eyes with two coats of curling mascara.

*Apply blusher to the apples of your cheeks and then sweep this up into your hairline to give a sexy slant to your cheekbones.

*Apply lipstick matching to your makeup and you are ready for the party.
