Temptalia’s Smokey Eye Challenge

Posted in: Challenges

For August, I want to see you rock SMOKEY EYES!  Show us your favorite smokey eye–whether it’s colored, gray, black, or even a bit neutral.

The Challenge | Rock the smokey eye! Figure out where you are in your comfort zone, and then take it to the next level…

  • “They’re pretty to look at, but I’d never wear it!” | Your Challenge: Wear it in the comfort of your own home.
  • “I’ve tried it, but I couldn’t wear it out” | Your Challenge: Wear it to the grocery store! Round up some pals (or get the man in your life) to take you somewhere hip and trendy.
  • “There is this one smokey eye…” | Your Challenge: Turn a classic look you do into smokiness with a darker crease. 
  • “I rock smokey eyes all the time!” | Your Challenge: Encourage others that wearing smokey eyes can be fun–and that there are many ways to wear them!

Are you ready for Temptalia’s Smokey Eyes Challenge? If you take the challenge, I encourage you to submit the results in picture form to temptalia@gmail.com, as well as all testimonials and written results are happily taken–just include your comment on this post! If you’re a little wary of your photos being on the blog, think about posting them on the forum, where only members can view your photos.

I am so in to this challenge and its theme! For how long are you running it?

I have to get rid of a “pal” I have under my nose.

Til the end of the month - probably will accept a few submissions into September if they come, since I was late to post!

Crap! Hope this one is running for a while, I just got my wisdom teeth taken out and my face is super puffy (I don’t look like myself anymore!):(

Yep, through August, and I’ll probably take a few until the first week of September if they come!

I’m all for this one. Smokey eyes are my favorite ever. Plus I learned how to do smokey eyes from your tut on makeuptalk.

I’m all for extending this one, as well. I’m in Maine for the week and only brought neutral shades with me!

Hmm, I feel silly asking this, but how are smokey eyes different than regular? Like, your green eye, I wouldn’t know to categorize that as smokey eye. Is it just having a darker color in the crease? Or does it depend on how far up and out you extend that darker color?

The best part about smokey eyes is that they differ from person to person. Some feel only grays/silvers/blacks classify a smokey eye. Others feel it’s a more dramatic, darker crease.
