Do you find it difficult to put on a nice smokey eye look? Then this ingenious makeup hack is just right for you. Why we can no longer do without the new make-up trend.

Applying eyeshadow is particularly difficult for beginners to make-up. There are an infinite number of colors to combine and a number of brushes with different functions. Not infrequently that one loses the overview. But that is now a thing of the past, because with the help of this hack we not only become real make-up professionals, but also save a lot of time.

Smokey Eyes: It’s that easy

Before you start with your make-up look, you first have to decide on four eyeshadow colors. In order to achieve the perfect smokey eye look, it is best to choose eyeshadow colors from a color group that allow a color gradient from dark to light. Now grab a flat eyeshadow brush and gradually apply the eyeshadow vertically to your eyelid. Start with the darkest tone on the outer eye and then work your way up to the lightest tone in the inner corner of the eye – this flatters the eye and makes the gaze more alert.

Veneering in record time

After you’ve finished applying it, put the flat makeup brush away. Because now it’s time to blend the eyeshadow. To do this, simply move the new brush across your eyelid in horizontal movements until you can no longer see any hard edges. Now apply a little mascara to the lashes and the smokey eye look is perfect.
