Smokey Black eyes are seen all over magazines and the red carpet. This look was inspired by Fergie at Idol Gives Back. I don’t remember exactly what it looked like. I just loved the black sparkles.

He U! Love, Love, Love it. It’s a gorgeous and not too over the top look. Nars night breed looks fantastic, i’ll have to check that out. Thanks for the tut.
wow! looks great! i always wanted to do a black smokey eye, but then it would turn out REALLY SCARY!!!!!!
i love that you are using the coastal scent brushes! yay!
have you ever tried the 222, 223, or 225 blending brushes? i know you heart heart heart the 224 and 217, but i was looking on the mac website and found those other ones. i’m kinda studying the brushes before i buy! =)
ps. looks like someone got their bangs trimmed! =) or is it just me? either way, looks great!
hey u!!
I have the 222, I like it a lot. But I just always grab the 224 for some reason.
The too faced eyeshadow is what keeps my shadow from moving all day. The cream color base or the other color bases I use help the colors blend or enhance the vibrancy
PPS. you look like a rockstar! =D
oh yeah, hey pursebuzz, why do you use both the too faced insurance and the mac base? instead of either or? is there a benefit to using both?
