We all agree that some makeup looks are classic, like a bold red lip, a cat-eye look and a smokey eye – but sometimes it is fun to recreate those looks and play around. Despite all the trends out there, 2023 is all about stepping outside the box and pushing the boundaries.
Classic Black Smokey Eyes
A classic smokey eye involves dark eyeshadow shades, usually black or dark browns which are applied in the crease of the eyelid very often along with eyeliner and false lashes. The result is a dramatic, sultry and provocative look that will make you feel sexy and powerful.
Warm Brown Smokey Eyes
Regardless of the colour of your eye, brown shadows will enhance their colour, making your eyes look brighter and bolder. Whether it’s a shimmery or matte shade, it will instantly shape and define your eye. Warm Brown Smokey Eyes suits almost every skin tone and is easy to adapt from day to night.
You can never go wrong with this look!

The Smudged Smokey Eyes Look
To create a smudged smokey eye, you need to apply eyeliner close to your lash line, then using a cotton swab or a fine flat brush, soften up the lines lightly. Even though black eyeliner is the most used you can also achieve this look with other colours that you love. Get experimenting and tag us in your favourite looks!

Glittery or glossy Smokey Eyes
Who doesn’t like sparkles? One of the best modern makeup trends if you are tired of the traditional smokey eye is a glittery, glossy or sparkling Smokey Eye. Now you can level up your look by adding glitter all over your eyelid so you can shine bright like a diamond. Another useful trick is to simply put a glint of your favourite lip gloss over your eyeshadow to give you that beautiful shiny and wet look.
