Today, I’m showing you how to create a warm brown smokey eye.
If you prefer cool tones, you can still follow along, just change up your eyeshadow shades. Let’s jump in.
Best cream eyeshadow
Tools and materials:
- 2-in-1 foundation/concealer
- Beauty blender
- Black eyeliner pencil
- Cream eyeshadow sticks: 2 shades
- Assorted brushes
- Black eyeshadow powder
- Black mascara
- False lashes
- Tweezers
- Bronzer

1. Apply 2-in-1 foundation/concealer
Apply a few dots of foundation/concealer and blend them with a beauty blender.
2. Apply black eyeliner on your water lines
Use a black eyeliner to line your water lines (top and bottom).
3. Apply the lightest eyeshadow shade
For your first layer of eyeshadow, choose your lightest color and color it on the mobile lid.
Blend it up toward the socket in sweeping motions with a small brush.
Then take what remains on the brush and sweep it under your lower lashes.
4. Apply a medium eyeshadow shade
For layer 2, color on a medium shade to your mobile lids.
Blend it with the brush, but be sure not to go as high up as the light, base color.
Apply the remnants on the brush under the bottom lashes too.
5. Deepen the lash line
Pick up a black powder eyeshadow on a smaller brush and apply it along your lash lines to deepen for a dramatic, dark black.
6. Apply mascara
Apply black mascara to your lashes.
7. Apply false lashes
Use tweezers to carefully apply false lashes according to the directions on the package.
8. Apply bronzer
Warm up the skin by applying bronzer at your hairline and at the tops of your cheekbones. Then blend well with a brush.
9. Brighten
To brighten and add a bit more coverage, apply concealer to any dark spots, particularly under the eyes or by your nose.
Then blend well with a brush.
10. Apply setting powder
Apply powder to a beauty blender and dab on a light layer to set your makeup.
11. Color your lips
Apply lipstick in a shade that compliments your eyeshadows.
12. Apply blush
Apply blush along your cheekbones to complete the look.
