Eye makeup tips often include advice on creating a smokey look. Some suggest black eye cosmetics, but you can try a slightly lighter shade of eye makeup like coffee or chocolate brown. Lining your eyes with charcoal black eyeliner can make eyes look very small. Perhaps just lining the outer corners of your eyes would enhance the smokey look. Try both and see which you prefer.

The crease is very important to the smokey eye and it needs special attention. With a taupe colored shadow, or a mixture of gray and brown, pick up a small amount (to begin), and work it into the crease area. Continue until the area is well defined, with lots of attention to the blending process. Remember, the look we are after is smokey.
With your favorite mascara, coat lashes so that they play up the darkness of the eye area. Several coats might be necessary.

Tips on how to do Smokey eye makeup?
* Remember to keep lips nude. When applying strong makeup (like smoky eyes or red lips) put the focus on either eyes or lips, never both.
* Apply white translucent powder below the eye and dust off after applying eye makeup. It will catch any fallen shadow.
* For a bit of fun, try a blue or purple mascara. It will make blue eyes "pop."
* Liner doesn't have to come in pencil form. Makeup experts know eyeshadows make some of the best eyeliners. To do this take an eyeliner brush, wet it, then dab wet brush into the dark shadow. This allows for a deep, precise line. You can also use the dark shadows without wetting brush first. Either way, eyeliner is necessary for smoky eye.
The key to the perfect smoky eye is proper blending. You want to make sure colors are blended together flawlessly.

Asean Make Up Tips

Your black hair, and pale but yellow tonned skin are best complemented by soft, warm colors. These will define your makeup looks and counteract any sallowness in your complexion. Here are some tips on how to apply makeup for asian and indians.
Asian Makeup Tips
1. Applying eyeshadow
- After applying your foundation, concealer and powder, sweep some lilac eyeshadow over your eyelid. This pale colour is a better option than using darker eyeshadows near the eyes asn they have a tendency to make them look deep set, particularly as your eyelids tend to be quite small.
2. Lightly fill your eyebrows with a dark brown or eyebrow pencil to provide a strong frame to your eyes. This will help balance the eyeliner which is going to be applied next.
3. Applying Eyeliner - A lick of blue black eye liner will emphasize your beautiful- shaped eyes, and help correct any droopiness. Slick it along the lower lashes and into outer corners of your eyes to create balance. To prevent the overall look from seeming too harsh, use a cotton bud to soften the eyeliner slightly.
4. Applying Mascara - Place your eyelashes between the edges of a curler, and gently squeeze for a few seconds. Then apply two coats of black mascara.
5. Applying blusher - A warm blusher gives a wonderful boost to your complexion and brings out is natural glow. Dust it over the plumpest part of your cheeks.
6. Applying lipstick - A baby pink lipstick bring your lips fasionably into focus. The cool blue tone to this shade works wonderfully on your colouring.
Tip: Asian eyelashes are often poker straight and so you can really benefit from the use of eyelash curlers.
