Julia Roberts Takes a Cue From The Hot Weather With Shine Free Smoky Eyes

Posted by The Girls in the BSW Beauty Dept. on June 29th, 2011

At the premiere of Larry Crowne this week in Los Angeles, Julia Roberts played the humidity card and showed us her way to rocking a sultry smoky eye even in the heat.  Rather than going for the super dramatic eye and sweeping shadow up to the brown bone, she kept the color soft and contained along her eyelids to prevent any slippage, or smudging.

If you’re eyelids are even shinier in the warmer weather, using an eye primer will absorb excess oil and give your eye shadow extra staying power.  To create Julia’s summer smoky eyes, apply a slate gray powder below the crease of your lids, using a tapping, not a brushing motion. Keep the shadow away from the inner corners of your eyes and repeat the process along your bottom lash line. Your eyes will have a hint of sculpted definition, and your makeup will stay put. Finish by applying a gel eyeliner in Onyx along the top lashline, and using whatever is left on the brush to sweep along the bottom lashes as seen here.
