Simple Smokey Eye for Beginners

Hi Everyone!
Hope you all are well :D I hope you all had a happy and safe night last night ringing in the New Year and I wish you all the best for the year coming! I just want to quickly thank each and everyone of you for your continued support over the last year, it doesn't go unnoticed :) I thoroughly enjoy sitting down to read your comments and I cannot wait to see what this year brings ^.^ From the bottom of my heart thanks again, you guys rock! :D

Todays look its pretty self explanatory, its a simple smokey eye that will suit all occasions. Like I said in the video this is the groundwork, you can make this look as simple or as dramatic as you like to suit the occasion. You can build up the intensity of the shadows by repeating the steps outlined in the video or you can add extra steps like liner and lashes to amp up the makeup look for a night time event :)
Either way whatever way you wear it, it'll look fab I promise!

ps: My poor Macbook is on its last legs which is why I haven't been uploading consistently. That, along with the fact that I'm in the middle of my finals at college...pray for me hahaha. Hopefully in the coming few weeks i'll have a new laptop and things will be back to normal!

this is the easiest and simplest smokey eye tutorial I've ever watched. Other smokey eye tutorials uses a ton of different shades of eye shadows that almost look identical to one another that's why you can't even tell the difference when applied. But this! Like, this video got all the basic colors and still looked absolutely great!
Thank you for making this tutorial. This really helps a lot

The music is so sooting it almost made me forget that I don't know how to do my eye make-up. :D

No matter how simply it looks..i can't

[daniellel]

this video is honestly the best tutorial. it's simple, relaxing, and clear. the slow pace is perfect and the music is soothing and not over whelming like so many other videos! Also no extra talk and straight to the point. Awesome job

[tinawallace]

Beautiful! Well done. I love it, and I can't wait to replicate your process when I do my eyes.

[sezozturk]

I love your eye color! It's so unique and beautiful.

This is far THE BEST smokey tutorial for beginners. No fancy words or fancy materials that only makeup experts know/use. Very flexible, like she uses the bronzer as an eyeshadow. Very few & very simple products used. Soothing voice. It sound like it's just the neighbor girl teaching you how to do makeup. When I started makeup I thought only the high-end ones are what works coy that's what I saw on Youtube. Eventually i realized I was wrong, there's a Lotta just as good products at Walmart too.

I cannot believe that your eyecolor is real. The most beautiful eyes I've seen my entire life.

I love this video and all your videos because you don't wear fake eyelashes!!!

[angeldavis]

Glad to see I don’t have to line my inner eyed lid. So refreshing. Thank you.

[vanessaf]

I'm hopeless with eye makeup and have watched a bunch of "smokey eyes for beginners" tutorials. Yours is the only one that was actually helpful!

[AusyJo]

FINALLY a smokey eye I think I can actually do. Thanks!

[debbiefechter]

Beautiful!! Easy and complete look for dimensions. Not too dramatic.

[amyanda]

I was super happy to find this smoky eye in lighter colors. Very pretty.

[melaniemurphyofficial]

Perfection! Please just move in with me and do my makeup, always! :) The music is so gorgeous and relaxing x

[msliper]

for begginers... and no matter how many times I try using many products, brushes, I end up looking like a 9 yo playing with mamas eyeshadows :( And I am already 20!

[saraemerson]

Since I am a bit young I have been trying so hard to find a simple soft smokey eye and I found it thanks to you!
