Celebrity Keri Hilson added a touch of red carpet glamour to her already edgy hair style, by pairing it with soft smoky eyes that were a huge hit. Seen here at the Hollywood premiere of Takers, although somewhat dramatic, they still had a light effect because of how the colors were applied to the eyes.

Celebrity makeup artist Beth Bender who gets more requests for smoky eyes than any makeup artist I know, says “rather than applying a charcoal shadow on your entire eyelid, only add it below the crease.” “Finish by adding a shimmery, neutral shadow directly over the darker color, and blending well for a softer version of a smoky eye.”

Beth’s Beauty Tip: Hilson went for a sheer pewter tone that was blended all the way up to her brow bone. The most important thing you can do when creating a look like this on yourself is to also blend the colors well.

The Kardashian sisters’ famous for not only their reality shows, but also their men, have also gained media attention with their smoky eyes. While attending the Beach Bunny Swimwear runway show we couldn’t help but notice the three styles of smokiness each of them was sporting.  Each did their own version of a smoky eye, but all eyes were on Kim and Khloe’s.

Big sister Kim’s smoky eyes are so popular that a search on google returns 117,000,000 hits to choose from. How crazy is that, but all true!  Her smoky eyes get almost as much press as she does. In true Kim Kardashian fashion she went for a more heavily lined look, and softened it with gray shadow applied in the crease and on the outer lid.

To finish her signature eyes she added a shimmery beige-pink shadow to the inner corner of her eyelids and blended it with the gray. This instantly opened the eyes for a dreamy, eye popping effect.

The most dramatic of the three was definitely Khloe.

She went for a straight all-or-nothing black-rimmed and lined eye all done with a jet-black pencil. Just a soft wash of a charcoal shadow was applied to the outer corner with a winged, almost cat like point. To set the eyeliner underneath the eye she used a soft taupe shadow which acted as a veil to catch any bleeding liner.

Three sisters, three smoky eyes. Who knew they would carry so much weight in the world of beauty!

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.

The Perfect Smoky eyes anytime of the year can be a challenge when you are trying to re-create something from a magazine, or the runway. The trick to achieving them not only requires the right eye shadows, but also the right tools.

A good brush set is a good place to start. You really only need a few to do a smoky eye. The first is a full size shadow brush for all over color, or to apply color to the eyelid, the second is a blender brush for applying color to the crease of eye, and the third is a smudge brush that softens the color (especially under the eye) and gives them their alluring look.

Once you have selected and purchased your brushes, keeping them in good condition will depend on how you care for them, and will also play a very big role in the actual application of your smoky eyes. Brushes that are used everyday, and more than once, should be cleaned at least twice a month.

To clean your brushes, you can buy a brush cleanser like Bobbi Brown’s which is the best, or use a gentle shampoo, and using just a drop placed in the palm of your hand, dampen your brush, and swirl it around into the shampoo. Rinse under luke warm water until the color runs off the brush. Try to get only the brush hairs wet, and squeeze out any excess water before placing your brush on a shelf so that the hairs are not touching, and are extended beyond the width of shelf.

Apricot Eyeshadow seems to be the color of the moment here in Hollywood. From shimmers, to soft matte shades, creams, powders, and my favorite, iridescent.

Every time I step onto a red carpet, there it is, apricot. So, what’s with the craze you ask? Well for one thing, it looks beautiful, and it works on every skin tone since the color is fairly neutral. You can apply using your fingers which is great for us ladies who are always on the go, but the best part is it looks great.

Jennie Garth, Edyta Sliwinska, Jennifer Carpenter, Jessica Alba, and Kate Blanchett have all been spotted with apricot hues on the eyes. Another benefit to wearing the shade, is that it makes your eyes look warmer which is perfect for an evening out on the town, or even a little flirting too.

Get in the Apricot Craze and check out these shades:

1. Glamorous from Lorac

2. Sweet-Talk from Josie Maran

3. Laura Mercier’s Eye Basic in Peach

When it comes to colorful eye makeup this spring, overdoing it is an understatement, and can make the difference between looking like you mistook your blush for eyeshadow, or getting it just right. When working with brighter, stronger hues, it’s always best to layer the color so you get the perfect application.

Celebrity make-up artist and beauty expert beth bender suggests starting first by lining your eyes with a waterproof black pencil, her favorite is benefit’s BADgal eyeliner, followed by rimming the eyes with a light blue pencil. Continue by sweeping your choice of a blue-green shimmer shadow, or bright blue shimmer shadow over your lids. “Shimmer shadows are a lot easier to work with and for first timers will be easier to blend if the color becomes too intense” say beth. “I like to use the On the List, or Girls Night Out kits because they include softer shades that allow you to build the color, and the shimmers are easier to apply.”

Make sure to avoid getting too close to the brows, which can end up looking very theatrical and definitely not glamorous. Instead apply a lighter shimmer shadow on the browbone blending into the crease.

Beth’s Beauty Tip: “I like to use my fingers to apply the first layer of color, especially if it’s a shimmer and then go back and blend with a brush”.  Use a Q-tip with a drop of eye cream to clean up any eyeshadow that may have fallen, and before applying concealer. You can add a few individual lashes at the ends of each eye for added glamour.”
