Glittery Smoky Eye
Once you’ve mastered the simple smoky eye, you can start adding fun touches like pops of glitter to the center of your lid. The Valentino Beauty Dreamdust Glitter Eyeshadow in Silver Spark catches the light in the most mesmerizing way and is easy to pack onto your lid using your finger or a flat eyeshadow brush.Winged Smoky Eye
Use a thin angled brush to wing your black eyeshadow at the outer corners of your eyes for a sultry, smoldering take on a cat-eye. A cream or liquid eyeshadow, like the Giorgio Armani Beauty Eye Tint Long-Lasting Liquid Eyeshadow in Ebony, will give you maximum pigment and blendability.Colorful Smoky Eye
Stray from classic gray and black with a colorful smoky eye. Go for shades of purple and burgundy, as creator Frankie Darling does here, or switch up the color palette to match your mood. The Maybelline New York Shadow Block in West 4th & Perry Street is full of deep, rusty hues, while 26th & Madison Ave contains a striking emerald green that would look gorgeous blended all over the lid.Warm Smoky Eye
Warm-toned shadows can be just as grunge-y as a cool-toned smoky eye. For a similar look to the one makeup artist David Razzano created below, try using shadows from the NYX Professional Makeup Ultimate Color Palette in Ultimate Queen.
