It goes on sheer and lightweight, but provides a heavy-duty staying power perfect for all-night wear.

2. Duo Eyeshadows by NARS
First, apply two shades of purple eyeshadow, like NARS’ Duo Eyeshadows in sets like Violetta or Jolie Poupee onto the lids using an eyeshadow brush. When applying the shade, sweep the lightest shade onto the middle of the lid. Then sweep the darker shade onto the outer portions. Afterwards, take the brush and blend the colors together in an attempt to rid away harsh lines. The key to beautiful smoky eyes is to blend, melting the colors together to create a hazy effect. As for the iridescent color, brush something like Night Fairy by NARS over the crease and apply a bit at the corners to reflect light.

When it comes to lining the eyes, one of two things can be done. First off, take an angled brush, wet it with a little bit of water, and then dip it into the eye shadow to create a colored liner. When ready, line the eyes then smudge along both lash lines, seeing as how the shadow is more forgiving. If moist shadows don’t do it for you, then simply purchase a long-lasting eyeliner and line your upper and lower lash lines in an attempt to redefine the eye. Start at the middle of the lid and maneuver the pencil upwards to create a cat-like shape. Try a waterproof eyeliner like Stila’s Stay All Day Waterproof Liquid Eye Liner. It has quick-dry precision and is super-easy to use, making it a must-have for any smoky-eye set up.

This gives off exaggerated lashes and a dramatic styling—a perfect touch to a pair beautiful peepers.
