Brown smokey eyemake up + Black-Brown styling combination

Hallo dear friends :)

Today it's been a quite dark day , cloudy enough and i'm really happy since dark weather and cold is my favorite version of it <3
I personally love dark colors on clothing and make up so today I've got the perfect chance to share one of my beloved looks ( make up + outfit ) with you :D

Let's get started :)

• MAKE UP

Eye make up

After preparing my face properly and creating a perfect base for my make up (click here to find out more) , i started working on my Golden-Brown smokey eye make up .

To get this look i used : A beige non glitter eye shadow , a medium and a dark brown eyeshadow ( if you have a pair in a palette it's ideal ) , a golden glitter eyeshadow and of course black mascara .

I used this great example of a palette i found on internet and i put numbers on the colors you could use following the steps below :)

To begin with , i applied the beige eyeshadow as a base across the whole eye lid and then i used the medium brown one to form a horizontal V to the outer edges of the eyelids .  ( In your application be sure medium brown eyeshadow will cover ONLY the outer 1/2 of your eyelid :) We want the inner half to remain beige . )

Next , it was dark brown's turn . I applied it using a thinner brush ; on the outer edges , across the eyelashes' lines ( upper and lower ) and right above the eyelids to increase the depth of sight .

And right after it was my favorite magical touch ^_^  I used my index finger , took a small quantity of golden glitter eyeshadow and tapped it gently on the center of each eyelid ! 

Two layers of black mascara are just enough to give you super sexy eyes ;) 

What i love most on this make up , is that it looks just awesome on any skin and eye color

and it matches a lot with any hair color :) <3 

Blush and lips

Choose an appropriate blush depending on your skin color

 ( light and pink ones are suitable for light skin , coral/pitchy tones are super for olive and medium skin and terracotta/brown/bronze colors look impressive on dark skin )

I mixed a light pink blush with a coral bronze powder to approach better the brownish tone of the whole make up ( if you do the same - use the darker color right under your cheek bones )

Last but not least , comes the lip make up . As far as i have stated , my significant make up product is lip pencil . I used my favorite one , Tommy G , Double lip pencil no.5 - Dark side both for outline and filling ( it's the MUST have of winter in my opinion ) . The color is a dark reddish brown :)

Aaaaaaand voila ! 

• OUTFIT

Nothing would look better than a black-brown combination that matches perfectly to this wonderful make up , suits to anyone and can be worn from morning till evening in all circumstances .

A black blouse with 3/4 long sleeves , a pair of dark colored jeans , dark brown belt , yellow McKninley boots and and leopard printed scarf form my favorite outfit , highly recommended for this make up !

You can put on any coat/jacket you want ( depending on the weather conditions ) which is between beige and black/brown tones :)

Hope you liked my suggestion for a comfortable , elegant , dark style and you got inspired to try more combinations based on your own personal preference !
