Get Gorgeous Smoky Eyes For Spring
Posted by Te-see on May 14th, 2009
SPRING IS IN THE AIR and to prove it check out Kerry Washington’s gorgeous eyes in shades Violet and Plums. What a refreshing alternative to the dark smoky eyes we have been seeing so much of.
Get Kerry’s look with ease by mixing a Violet and deep Plum shimmer shadow together and then applying to the eyelid and up into the crease of eye as seen here. To create Beth suggests using the OMG! Kit in plum, violet, and pale pink shimmer. Line the eyes with a smudge proof gel eyeliner in black, try Onyx Stay Put Gel Liner, $18 at beth bender beauty. Make sure to taper the liner as you get closer to the center of eye and keep it thicker at the ends as seen here on Kerry. You can also line underneath the eye stopping in the center and smudging for a softer line. Finish by adding some powder shadow to complete the look.
FINISH the look with a bit of tinted moisturizer to even out the complexion before giving your cheeks a pop of blush with Desert Rose Powder Blush, $20 at bobbibrown.com. Try Laura Mercier’s Tinted Moisturizer, $42 at lauramercier.com. It gives your skin a healthy glow and deposits just the right amount of color without looking too heavy.
PUCKER UP with Creamy Lip Color in Crystal Pink, $22 at bobbibrown.com and for extra, extra shine add a layer of Crush Liquid Lip Glaze, $16 at bethbenderbeauty.com.

I just started using a gel eyeliner and I love it! I can’t believe how the color doesn’t budge. I had my makeup done for my wedding and by the end of the night it was still perfectly in place.
I love the colors in the OMG! Kit. My girlfriend who wears only beth bender beauty bought me the kit for my birthday and I wear it almost everyday.
Thanks for the great post!
