Have you tried the Bronzey-Smokey Eye?

So, I decided to play today and create a "new" smokey eye.  And, I impressed myself because the end result was pretty awesome...

I did a typical smokey eye (that is tailored to my hooded lid and almond shaped-deep set eyes) and then for a kick, added a light punch of a creme shadow to the inner corners of the eyes in a bronze color.  It was perfect for my brown eyes and the combination of the bronze, black, and gun-metal shades really looked nice together....And the whole look is virtually impossible to do without 5 very important tools: 1) a really good precision shadow brush,  2) a gel pot eyeliner with 3) an angle liner brush and 4) the right eyeshadows and definitely 5) an eyeshadow base!  Keys to success....add color little by little and BLEND, BLEND, BLEND!



And then I worked out for an hour and got all shiny and decided to take another picture because I was still so impressed with the look, haha :)  Ignore the sheen...


The pictures don't do it justice- (sorry, that's my mediocre little point-and-shoot camera and self-photography....)

Give it a try!  You will love it!
