Make Up For Ever @ Ed Hardy + Giveaway!

Make Up For Ever @ Ed Hardy

Make Up For Ever Alliance artist, James Vincent (www.makeupforever-alliance.com), served as the key make up artist for the Ed Hardy swim show on Friday, July 16th. James created a bold black eye and strong red lip for a glamorous, old Hollywood look.

Complexion & Cheeks: The skin was bronzed and dewy with highlights on the brow bone and high cheek.

Eyes: To get a neutral base for the eye, James applied Make Up For Ever Eye Shadow #156 up to the brow bone. He then created a thick rim around the top of the eye extending to the liner beyond the outer corner of the lid using Make Up For Ever Aqua Black, and he then went on to rim the lower lash line as well. He finished by applying two coats of Make Up For Ever Aqua Smoky Lash.

Lips: For a gorgeous pop of red on the lips, James applied Make Up For Ever Aqua Cream #8.

To celebrate, Make Up For Ever and Temptalia are giving away:

  • Make Up For Ever Aqua Black
  • Make Up For Ever Aqua Eyes #0L
  • Make Up For Ever Aqua Cream #8

I know that’s right. That girl is Chris Brown’s current girlfriend Jazmine and let’s just say that she is definately no Rhianna. I dont like this look on her because usually she is so beautiful but this here does her no justice. POOR THING! SMH

Halo Avatar

same here before i read the coments i was thinking please, don’t let me be the only one who thinks that looks horrible and the eyeliner come on! thats not even pretty in a parallel universe. please reply if you agree this dosen’t look like the “old Hollywood” look the artist was going for

Xtina Avatar

The look is very street-walker-ish. I’m really confused by the flesh toned eyeliner. It just looks like these hookers can’t do their make up right!

ter Avatar

I’d wear a smokey eye anywhere. I wear glasses so I can pull off more eyemakeup. Now this model’s smokey eye look i’d wear on a late night date to a club or dimly lit restaraunt!

Alejandra Huerta Avatar

OMG !! I love to wear smokey eyes !! Specially on night when I´m with my friends or just when I want to look more elegant !! =)

Kelly Avatar

I would wear this eye if I were to do a fun night with my friends where we all go out looking a little silly, because this look is just to overbearing for me to wear on a regular basis.

Tanya Avatar

I lov Smoky eyes. the other day I wore a green smoky to go do my hair. lol
I also love the black/white smoky combo for a night out in town

rasilla Avatar

In the past, I thought smokeys were for evening events. but now adays everyone seems to be pulling off all kind of smokey eyes, not just the dark ones. So I think depending on how you do yours, and the colours you use, you can wear one any time! if we are talking about dark smokey eyes…well it would be only at night for me~ GOing out with the gals for drinks or whatever~

Jessica Avatar

I mainly do cat-eye eyeliner since it’s quick and easy but if I were able to I’d wear a smokey eye all day, everyday and to any occasion.

Kajsa Avatar

I don’t scare easily, so I can wear a smoky eye everywhere! Even if I’m just going out for some grocery shopping or for laundry day. I’m that epic! 🙂

Dana Avatar

I wear a smokey eye basically everywhere! Whenever I wear eye makeup I always smoke it out, either subtle or dramatic depending on where I am going

Joanne Avatar

A dark, sultry smokey eye is my go-to for parties, clubs and holiday celebrations, like New Year’s Eve. However, with a light hand (and subtler shades), I also rock a smokey eye to the mall, a brunch out, movie dates, etc..

Mary Beth Avatar

Sorry to be mean but this look is hideous. I want to win it anyway though. I have worn a smoky eye a total of once and I wore it to open mic night comedy night at a local bar. It looked good and I’ll be wearing it again.

Annie Avatar

I would wear a smokey eye anywhere. Really! I find the smokey eye sexy and bold- why not wear it everywhere? A smokey eye can also be a soft brown smokey eye- and those are just great for day time. <3

Keener Avatar

I could wear a smoky eye everywhere (it’s the only thing I know how to do well with eyeshadow), while doing the dishes, while picking up soy milk at 9am, while slaying vampires, whatever your day entails a smoky eye complaints any activity… but mostly I reserve it for nights I want to be smouldering, usually those are the rare times I hit a club or when trying to add some edge to my look if I’m attending something like a wedding reception.

Phung Avatar

I would wear the smokey eye look to the Microsoft Christmas Party. I would wear a brownish with copper smokey eye look, my favorite eyeshadows are mostly browns and purples. I wore brown as my first eye shadow when I was growing up!

Mel Avatar

There aren’t a lot of places I WOULDN’T wear a smoky eye. I don’t wear a lot of makeup because I work with cars all day in a dirty shop, but when I do, a smoky eye is my goto look. I use lighter colors for daytime and casual events, and darker when I want to glam it up.

Hanna Avatar

I wear heavy dark smokey eyes for nights out. Dark but not heavy I wear at night time if I am going out for dinner or drinks with the girls. A more neutral smokey eye I wear doing the day – I like to wear bright colours in the summer where I wear more browns and grays in fall/winter.

Debby Avatar

I’d wear a smokey eye to just about anywhere but work. I work in a lab, so I wear pretty minimal makeup there. But for shopping in the afternoon, eating out, even just hanging out in the evening, I’d wear a smokey eye.

alice Avatar

There are so many variations of a smoky eyes, and with so many different colors. I wear them all the time. Smoky does not necessarily mean black. But I love black.

Jennifer Torres Avatar

I would wear a subtle and neutral smokey eye in the day 😀
and I would wear a dark smokey eye for a night out w/ my girls !

Suzanne Avatar

I would wear this smokey eye to the grocery store, or even to walk my dog.. I really love makeup, I dont care if people think it looks like its too much.. Cant get enought black eyeliner !!!

Megan Avatar

I would wear a smokey eye to somewhere pretty fancy and glamorous. I would even wear a smokey eye out to dinner at a nice restaurant.

Nazia Avatar

Well, a few years back I’d wear a dark smokey eye look everywhere, at anytime of the day too! But now, I lighten up the colors for a smokey look so I can still wear them where ever I’d like to go. But if I do a dark look, it would be to an all girls night out and out to dinner/parties.

Amy p Avatar

I’m still practicing my smokey eye, but I would love to wear one on a date, It would make me feel pretty, so a good confidence boost!

Lizz M. Avatar

I’d wear a smoky eye anywher For the most part i’d say I usually pull out the smoky eyes for a night out; i.e dinner, clubbing, concerts, etc.

Sabra Avatar

I usually wear a smoky eye to dinner or for a party, for dinner I’d definitely do a smoky eye which wasn’t that intense and then for parties I’d be making it as smoky as possible!

Prerna Avatar

Smoky Eyes can go light or intense. A light smoky eye can be worn it in the day with a nice summer dress, an intense, vivid one would be great for a night out on the town.

amy Avatar

I would wear a smokey eye anywhere, its all in the colors you use and how dramatic you want it to be. Heavier application with deep colors are good for evening and lighter grays and matte highlighter are good for day.

Leslie Vossmer Avatar

I am a dare devil who loves to wear a smokey eye to work especially when i am in meetings. It locks peoples attentions on yours eyes

Melissa Avatar

I’m sorry but I think that makeup is tragic!! Notice on the close up pic how the back doesnt go all the way to the lash line! In the further down picture the model on the left looks better. but the makeup artist who did the close up messed up the look.

Maisie Avatar

i would wear a smokey eye anywhere pretty much, especially neutral ones with browns… but id wear a bold black and grey smokey eye to a formal or out at night to dinner or something.

Lexi Avatar

i wear either a subtle bronze smokey eye or light purple smokey eye as my everday look! for a more dramatic smokey eye, i would love it wear it to a wedding or special event!

LNU Avatar

I wear a smoky eye everywhere to be honest! The only thing I do is tone it down for everyday by barely passing my crease. Benefit where theres smoke, is my staple smoky eye shade!

JD Avatar

I usually do smoky eyes every day! But in the daytime unusually use plums, olives and bronzes. At night I bust out navy and grey…black is a little much for my eyes/skin tone…

May Avatar

I’d wear a smokey eye anywhere! (Except the pool or somewhere like that obviously.) But I love wearing smokey eyes, one of my favorite looks, I’m constantly trying to perfect it.

Jenn Avatar

I’d wear a smoky eye for a girls’ night out in the city or when hitting the clubs. But the only time I’ve worn a smoky eye was for prom!

Yumi Avatar

I wouldn’t wear a smoky eye on a date because I try to look natural for that. Probably just going out with friends, e.g. bar, party, girls’ night out!

sofia Avatar

anytime!! i would play between more natural colours for everyday look or darkest for more dramatic look for formal or night looks

Tabi Avatar

I’d wear a smokey eye of browns anywhere! But if we’re talking strictly blacks/grays, I’d wait until a nice night out to dinner. =)

Lena Avatar

I’m pretty daring when it comes to eye looks, so I’d wear a smokey eye look just about anywhere. I love wearing them at night or to events, though.

Sophie Avatar

I would wear a Smokey Eye look to a party! But of course, that’s one of the more “common” answers. Realistically, I’m not even going to lie—I just wear that look whenever it fits my mood. I would have no problem wearing that to work or church! 🙂

Lauren Avatar

I would wear a smokey eye anywhere! Since I’m thinking of quitting my job, I might just wear a fierce smokey eye the day I do that!

dolce aria Avatar

I wear Smoky eyes anywhere. Honestly, “gentle” makeup doesn’t really work on my face. I have a strong bone structure, but a good amount of baby roundness. So soft makeup looks usually make my face look puffy, and distorted. I use harsher smoky eyes and brighter lips and contours to kind of create the shape that’s underneath.

Valerie C. Avatar

I’d wear a smoky eye to any evening event such as a party, club, restaurant, casino etc. I also love a toned down version for day 🙂

Iolanthe Avatar

Well, I’d wear a smokey eye out on the weekends, but if it were waterproof, I’d wear it outside in a rainstorm! Nothing like running around in the rain everyone else is trying to escape, all while looking as glamorous as possible…

Aimee Avatar

when im up on stage performing 🙂 i love performing… i would wear this eye with an intense contemporary dance. this would definitely help in making eye contact with the audience and drawing them in!

Annette Felix Avatar

I love smokey eyes! I would wear it to go out clubbin or at a formal event. But for something so dramatic as that on the pictures, definitely to a fashion show or Halloween. =) Great giveaway! Hope I win! =) Thank you!

jasmine Avatar

I actually wear smokey eyes whenever i want. I used to save them for concerts and parties, but nowadays I just play with different colours so i can wear them to work aswell.

Madison Avatar

Well I to enjoy smokey eyes no matter when and where I am but I always concentrate on one when I intend to go out and just have fun with the girls. <3

Keshia Avatar

I would wear a smokey look anywhere! I love the smokey eyed look, it adds mystery and everyone likes a mystery to a girl.
Plus, it’s not something everyone would be wearing on the street, but I would because I’m not afraid to wear something dramatic and head turning!

Briony edmunds Avatar

Everywhere!! Though I prefer to go clothes shopping with a neutral smokey eye so nothing clashes when I’m trying things on :)!

Lexia Avatar

i love smokey eye makeup and wear it practically everywhere.
i can just tone down the drama when I want to wear it to work or school.

Amanda E. Avatar

I agree that these models are too made up… definitely not what I emulate with smoky eye makeup. It almost looks like the makeup artist used sharpies on their lids. And Ed Hardy needs to go away forever, in my opinion :/ but still, smoky eyes are great for any occasion if you do them right! Understated for an AM meeting, full out for late nights 🙂

Hannelore Avatar

Hmm, if I would wear smokey eyes, it would be out, at a party, or maybe to an event! Oh maybe to a festival or something^^ thanks for the contest

Janine Avatar

Anything from a bar, dinner, or an evening wedding… but it would have to be at night, and sans the red lips! Only models, hookers, and a select few can pull that one off!

ANA CRISTINA Avatar

I would wear a smokey eye to any and all special occassions. I love smokey eyes, that mess of eye that they did I wouldn’t wear outside of the house, especially with that red lip LOL

Ashley Avatar

Swimming of course! LOL, no, not really. But my favorite place to wear a smokey is when I perform. (I am a concert clarinetist.) I think it makes me sound better, heehee 🙂

kali Avatar

I think she looks really cute with her smokey cat eye -it fits in the theme of Ed Hardy. (I don’t think anyone should wear that much makeup while at the pool or beach though!)

Andddd I have to mention, these girls have REAL bodies! I’m happy to see that they’re not stick figures.

Crystal Avatar

I would wear a smokey eye during a night on the town. I would not however wear a smokey eye while wearing my bathing suit. 😉

Monica Avatar

I think you could wear a smokey eye anywhere, it just depends on the colors and their intensity. But the black smokey eye look, I would probably wear out to a dark restaurant or to a night club.

Catherine Avatar

I would were a smokey eye to go out with my friends or anytime in fact! I wear makeup according to my mood, not according to the time or the place!

Adail Avatar

There are a few different places where I’d wear a smoky eye. Any nighttime party…a club…maybe out to dinner if I was going somewhere fancier.

Audri Avatar

I do smokey eyes whenever I feel like it – and that isn’t always a good thing, haha. Church is no place for a smokey eye. 😉 No – but I love rockin’ smokey eyes at a concert. Behind glasses, it’s quite intense.

Alexis Avatar

I would wear a smokey eye whenever I felt like it. Oh yes because I am edgy!Haha if I feel like doing a bright eye I do it if I feel that I want a darker look I go smokey, thats just my makeup mentality I suppose.

nikki c. Avatar

i’d wear a smoky eye to a dinner date with my
boyfriend:)
he’s been wanting me to try a smoky eye because i’m a neutral gal and I usually wear just mascara and a bit of eyeliner on my tightline:)

Bekah Avatar

I have small, undefined eyes. A smokey eye would be perfect for bringing them out! I’d definitely wear a smokey eye to parties, and heck, I’d wear one any day, just to shake things up!

Sharon M Avatar

I’d wear a smokey eye anywhere. It’s all in the colour and intensity for me… darker at night and for special occasions, lighter and more subtle for work. 🙂 (Although the models just look… tacky?)

Thank you for the giveaway! It would be cool to win these, especially as MUFE isn’t available locally any more.

Zenaida Avatar

Psh I would wear a smokey eye to a grocery store!!! I even had one on yesterday, for a dress fitting just to see how it would look and then went to the grocery store after.

Candice Stark Avatar

I’d wear a smokey eye anytime i go out at night.
BTW, i hate that models makeup, they could of made it so much better, plus Ed Hardy is so awful.

Jennifer Avatar

I wear a smokey eye everywhere! Perhaps a bit overkill, but I go to a very liberal alternative high school, so I’m revelling in it. But I do make it a little less dramatic than the model’s smokey eye, noted.

Yasmin Avatar

i would and always where a smoky eye to wherever places that i feels like wearing it!Either to the mall,party and absolutely hang out with friends on weekend.I just can’t separate from wearing smoky eyes because it makes me feels funky.

Erin Avatar

I wouldn’t wear THIS look anywhere! This is hardly “old Hollywood glamour” – it’s gawd aweful!

I wear smokey eyes for a big night out on the town.

Grin Avatar

I wear smoky eyes anywhere in the evening

PS: Dear Christine, could you please update your giveaway posts with the name of the winner, or else it seems like noone won, so the desire to participate in new giveaways lessen.

katrina Avatar

i would wear a smoky eye anywhere and anytime i feel like wearing one. either, shopping at the mall, having coffee with friends, or clubbing. i would just adjust the intensity of the smokiness base on occasion. BUT i wouldn’t wear this kind of smoky eye LOL. it looks like it was applied by a child who jus started to draw LOL

RonyaLii Avatar

Mette Avatar

I’d wear a smoky eye with a soft pink lip and subtly glowy cheeks, the look would go with any outfit but my choice would be a summery floral dress!

Sarah Avatar

I don’t wear makeup a lot so I usually wear smoky eyes whenever I’m wearing makeup , neutrals don’t suit me or make my eyes looks reaaly tiny and face looks sick.

Zoffe Avatar

I wear smokey eyes everywhere, haha! 😀
They’re basically my go-to makeup look when I’m in a hurry but still want some cool makeup!

I’m not a fan of the way the makeup is applied on the models though :/

Rachael W Avatar

For my company holiday party every year, i do dark, smokey eyes.
I also like to do bronzey/brown smokey eyes and champagne/taupe for everyday looks. Going out for drinks would be grey and silver!

Amy Avatar

I actually wear neutral smokey eyes to school and when I’m going out, I wear some bolder smokey eye with a hint of color in it. I like the simple black and grey, but sometimes I like to add on some blue or green.

Nicole Avatar

most of the time I do wear a smokey eye in black when I’m going out with friends for a nite out in the time, other then that I do wear a smokey eye in other colors too

ALessa Ngo Avatar

I’d wear a smokey eye when I hang out with my friends to everywhere because I think smokey eye look fits me very well, more than anything.

DonnaN Avatar

I would wear a subdued smokey eye, probably on a date night w/ my hubby….but i definately would NOT wear it with fake bangs and a swimsuit….REALLY?!?

Lyndsay Avatar

I hate their makeup application in these photos…but thats not to say the product couldn’t be made to look good…

I’d wear a smokey eye out for a romantic dinner with my husband.

Gen Avatar

I’ll wear a really dark smoky eyes going to dinner with my husband but a do waer it some time to time but with subtle or pale colors too.

Shanna Avatar

I don’t go out much (to a club or bar type scene) so if I DO go to a bar, I’d possibly wear a smokey eye there, or if I went out to a nice restaurant. Sometimes I’ll do it just because I feel like it – I don’t always want a reason =D It’s always more subtle than the chicks in the pictures, though, haha.

Cristina Avatar

To the club or just any night out with my girlfriends! Just because they are called “bedroom eyes” don’t mean you can’t wear them elsewhere!

PeachBellini Avatar

I wear smoky eyes a lot… darker shades in the evening, I especially love dark greys/blacks and more subtle looks for the day, like smoky browns or purples. Can’t say I like the looks on the models in the pics though, esp the hair:(

Maria Avatar

I will wear a smokey eye ANYWHERE! I usually have some variety on everyday, if i’m going out at night it’s usually more dramatic. 🙂

ashlee Avatar

i’d wear a smokey eye anywhere anytime I love them during the day , during the night , any time really
def a normal part of my look

Shah'ada Avatar

I’d wear a smoky eye anywhere. . . but a dark smoky eye, just while going out on the town at night (which rarely happens lol).

Lauren Sutherland Avatar

I’d wear a smoky eye when I really want to be noticed! I’d tone it down from what the models are wearing a bit though!

Brooke Avatar

I love to wear a smokey eye ANYwhere. I rarely get the chance to go out with having two kids, so anytime my foot goes out the door my eye is smokey… whether it’s a neutral brown smokey or something more dramatic. I love to play!

Audrey H. Avatar

I’d wear MUFE smoky eye out on a special dinner date with my DH which we haven’t done in ages. Would be fun! Thanks for the sweet giveaway!

Ashley Avatar

I would wear a smoky eye on a night on the town, somewhere fun with my girlfriends. Something nice and dramatic would complement the craziness we’d get into.

Kristin Avatar

I’d wear it out on the town to enjoy being single again! I just broke up with my college boyfriend of three years so this would be a great smoky, sexy look!

Sara(m) Avatar

I’ll be rocking a smoky eye next month when I hit Vegas and spend my evenings playing at the tables and sipping cocktails! 😀

stephanieee Avatar

I love smoky eyes but not the look applied to the models.
I would wear smoky eye look when going out with the girls for dinner or spicing up date night.

Alexis B. Avatar

I think these models make up looks awful, the hair too – yugh. BUTTTT I just realized I haven’t worn a dark smokey eye in months, I love it for a weekend dinner with my boo. 🙂

monica Avatar

this makeup is so gross. i mean, i totally understand that a lot of runway makeup isn’t for everyday wear. but this is just tacky and not appealing in any way. eww.

K Avatar

I would wear a smokey eye to work. The smokey eye look is my go to look when I speak at conferences. I wear glasses so it makes my eyes stand out from far away but also not be too bright. Especially since I like to wear a lot of colors when I am not working.

Erin Avatar

I love wearing a smokey eye daily. Its the easiest thing to do when you don’t have time for makeup. And its the fastest way to fix a makeup “mistake”.

Cheyenne Avatar

To be honest their smokey eye is a little outrageous! I wouldn’t wear it with a swim suit either. I rather wear a smokey eye when I want to impress my boyfriend on a dinner date.

Michelle B. Avatar

I would wear a smokey eye to a night out in the city combined with a vibrant– yet subtle hint of pink or violet to add some fun to it. I would also do a smokey eye at a concert or anywhere I could stand out and flaunt my greatest feature.

Stephanie Avatar

I’d definitely rock the smokey eye to my next girls’ night out! Since graduating from college, it’s hard to get everyone together but when we do, we get fierce!

joanne w Avatar

I think it depends on what type of smokey eye I’d be wearing and for this particular look I can only think of wearing this to clubbing or Halloween. Definitely not for everyday use 😛

maya pastori Avatar

I love smoky eye, i wear it all the times, then depending on where i’m going and what i’m doing, i can exagerate or make it very soft. I wear smoky eye especially if i’m going out at night, then i love to pair it always with nude-peachy-rosy lips and peachy-rosy cheeks!!!

Petra Avatar

I’d wear a smokey eye anywhere – but for the office/daytime, I’d use softer colours (lilacs/purples and browns/taupes) and use less eyeliner.

Erin Avatar

I don’t like the Ed Hardy smokey eye at all.

I wear different degrees of a smokey eye to anywhere. I light smokey eye to work or church and a full blown smokey eye on a night out with my husband.

Danielle F. Avatar

I will and have worn a smokey eye when I am going out with the girls, or when I feel like I want to have a more sultry look for a date night with the boyfriend.

Eva Avatar

I would not wear a black eye (as shown above in the pictures). I’d wear a smokey eye everywhere–seriously, even the gym. It’s my favorite look.

stephanie paul Avatar

i would wear a smokey on as night out with nude lips…the dark eyes && red lips is way too much but then again it is for a fashion show

Shannon Avatar

smokey eyes are for clubbing for me, full of smokiness and falsies lol. i find it hard to pull off unless i wear falsies to open my eyes, and i personally think it can be really too ott for day time. of course i do know people who CAN pull off smoky eyes even during the day, but i think those people are few and far in between

Kayla Avatar

I’d wear a smoky eye anywhere! I work at a cafe where there is pretty much no negativity towards my crazy makeup, so I can even wear it to work. 😉

summer saiedi Avatar

I would do a bronzy/daytime smokey eye for a more natural look that required one to wear it whilst shopping or eating out at a restaurant with friends. I love wearing colorful smokey eyes out to a bar or club. It makes one seem more exotic as well as confident to step out of the box!!

Natalie Avatar

I’d wear a smoky eye look to a more formal dressed up event. I think a colored one (like a pretty navy or plum) looks gorgeous with a formal dress. Thanks for the opportunity!

ak Avatar

HA HA HA HA HAAAAAA I’m sorry but this picture looks like a very pretty Shaggy Dog or Cowardly Lion! LOL LOL It made me wanna die, I bursted out laughing!

Joanna Avatar

Honestly, I would wear a smoky eye everywhere. I know people think that it may be too much to wear to work or to school, but I just love wearing it anywhere I feel. My favorite especially is out at a party though. I like to add a bit of sparkle and glitter to it for the nighttime. 🙂

ak Avatar

The clothes in this are awful, and the girl in the pick, they have her looking like Shaggy Dog or the Cowardly Lion. Burn these negatives and while your at it burn the positives too!

Laura Avatar

I would wear a smokey eye when going out at night with my Hubby or friends.. But really anytime if it looked good with my outfit!

Kristina Linn Avatar

Really I wear some version of a smokey eye every day to work. Its kind of my bread an butter, though of course I use lighter colors so my director doesn’t have a heart attack.

Christina Avatar

I would wear a smokey eye when I’m having a night out on the town with my girls- whether we go clubbing, bar hopping, or just eating at a restaurant.

Jamie Avatar

I wear smokey eyes all the time… even during the day! I’ll do it with all different colors… I love to experiment and am lucky I can!

Ishnar Lopez Avatar

I love smokey eyes, it’s such a versatile look, you don’t have to do the typical black-grey e/s, you can do a pink smokey eyes, green, blue, purple… I love smokey eyes for work, and I’m not afraid of doing the smokey eyes and a bold red lip…

Helenita Avatar

I’d wear a smoky eye to almost anything, even the supermarket! this is my favorite eye makeup look! Plus you can use a little more sublte colors and it won’t look overly dramatic 🙂

Airess Avatar

To be honest I would wear a smokey eye anywhere!!! But most definitely to a club or party or lounge or an after 5 wedding. I’m not really shy when it comes to wearing different makeup looks… so I would even wear this during the day.

Sharmen Avatar

Anytime, anywhere… As long as I felt like it. There are dozens of different ways to do a smoky eye, and they all don’t need to involve the color black.

jazmin Avatar

i usually wear smoke looks when i go to the mall… which is about every sunday.. and during the week i just wear a smoky lash line and mascara with sometimes a hint of color on my waterline.

Sarah P Avatar

Smokey eye can go anywhere!! But i love a green colored smokey look!

And to anyone that thinks this look is ridiculous on the models…..IT’S CALLED A FASHION SHOW! Why would you think it’s a “wearable” look anyway!? And makeup is MUFE NOT Ed Hardy…..

Steph Avatar

I almost never wear smokey eyes in the summer, but I have a bachelorette party coming up for my friend in september. I’ll def. wear a smokey eye then!

pjsparklez Avatar

i don’t have many opportunities to wear a smokey eye, but when it is time to get all dressed up and go out with my girls for a night on the town, that is when i would wear a smokey eye.

melissa vaught Avatar

Oh how I would LUV to win this prize!! I would wear a smokey eye on a much needed nite out with my husband. Our Anniversary was this week and we haven’t got to go out alone in a long time. So when we finally do get the chance, I want to make sure I look “smokin’ hot” with smokey eyes. He always tells me how beautiful he thinks my eyes are…Awwww!

Juliette Avatar

I’d wear a somkey eye to a rock gig! BUT make sure it’s all waterproof because things can get hot at certain venues… MUA tend to say ‘the messier the better’ but it isn’t always quite right!

Mira Borggreen Avatar

A smokey eye can be worn everywhere…depends on the color choice and how smokey it really is;) I love a dark dramatic smokey eye for a night out/dinner. A fun colorful one for a day w your girl friends/beauty buds;) or a very natural toned one for work;) Smokey all the way!
