HELLO SPRING.

The 2 green colours I am using in this look are: (left to right) MAC 'humid', MAC 'lucky green' 
* if you don't have these products, use 2 shades of green- dark &light*





Make sure your eyelid is clean. Prime your eyelid with either a neutral paintpot/concealor or foundation. I used MAC 'bare study' paintpot.



With any eyeshadow makeup brush apply 'lucky green' (the lightest green shade) to you eyelid. Apply it onto the lid and keep the colour within the boundaries of the inner corner "v", the eye crease.


Now using an angle brush. This brush is MAC 266.


Using 'humid' (the darkest green shade) draw the shape that is displayed in the picture below. This shape is ontop of the 'lucky green'. The line extends outward at a 45 degree angle and drags along the eyelid crease.

*the black is where you should apply the colour 'humid'

So if you do this correctly it should look something like this...

Then using a blender brush. This is a MAC 217 brush. * this brush is a VERYVERY important part in accomplishing the smoked effect. Its essential to use a blender brush or else you cant properly blend the colours together.  


Using the blender brush make circles with your brush- following the pattern in which you applied the 'humid' (in the above picture). As you go back and forth along your crease the circle motion will essentially blend the colour outward toward your eyebrow-creating a "smoked" effect

Now apply a black eyeliner. You can use either a liquid liner/black eyeshadow/fluidline. I prefer to use MAC 'blacktrack' fluidline. I used the MAC 266 angle brush to apply the eyeliner. Apply the eyeliner along your top lash line. Wing the eyeliner out to the side of your eye, like shown below.
 *practice makes perfect, so practice on your hand to master the steady line*

Now apply the black eyeliner to the bottom lashline. Using the same angle brush, drag the liner from your inner "v" and extend it towards the end of your eyebrow, joining it to the wing. 


Now get a q-tip, rub it in some lotion and drag it on an angle towards the end of your eyebrow( shown in the picture below). This will wipe away the tip of the eyeliner you previously created.

Your eyeliner should now look something like this...


Apply mascara to the top and bottom lashes. 
Add a black pencil eyeliner along the bottom inside line.


If you want, you can highlight your brow bone for a more dramatic effect. Use any eyeshadow brush and apply a shimmery neutral colour to your brow bone. I used a MAC 'shroom' eyeshadow.


YOUR DONE!!!
