Stumble It!Perfect for Summer: The Sultry Brown Smoky Eye
Posted by The Girls in the BSW Beauty Dept. on July 1st, 2010
Model Ariadne Artiles is so gorgeous she could wear a potato sack, not a stitch of makeup, and still look amazing. It’s hard not to be mesmerized by those eyes, and her chiseled features, but that aside, this smoky bronze liner would actually look good on anyone, and it’s easy enough to create without the hassle of too many steps or tools.
To get the look we asked our resident beauty expert, and Creative Director of beth bender beauty, Beth Bender. “This is one of my favorite looks for summer, and by adding a little more color you can create instant drama for an evening look.” To do, start by applying a bronze colored eye pencil along the lashline, making the line slightly thicker than you might.
Next, with a black water-proof eyeliner, add a thin line along the lashes on top of the bronze color, and smudge into lashline. Apply only the bronze shimmer pencil underneath the eyes and smudge.
Using a pink-beige shadow, apply all over the eye area, and finish by adding a wash of brown shadow in the crease. To take the look from day to night, add more color in the crease of eye, liner underneath the eyes with your black liner, and finish by sweeping your brown shadow over the liner and smudging together for a smoldering effect. You can also add some pink-beige shadow to diffuse the brown and brighten the eyes.
