When In Doubt... Smoke It Out!

Ah, words to live by. lol. seriously tho, when you're not sure what to do with your makeup and you really don't want to be just plain and simple... Smoke it out.. and in any color! When on my way to work and trying to figure out what I want to do with my makeup, I tend to draw blanks or even sink into a bit of a lazy funk. The ride isn't the smoothest and sometimes, I want to do a look that I can actually complete on the way, rather than a look that I have to finish up at the office. That is the classic smokey eye! When I say classic, what I mean is the graduation of color from dark to light starting at the lash line and working up toward the brow... the ladies of Jerseylicious (whom I ADORE... except tracy.. fuck that sloppy bitch) have been calling the eye with a super defined crease and dramatic blending, a smokey eye... and while they're not wrong (I wouldn't dare call the Glam Fairy wrong lol!) that's not really what I personally think of when I say smokey eye.. so from now on, i'll call that the Jersey Smoke. hahahahahahhahah! Anyhoo, I exercise my right to smoke with black as my base and blend it out into greys, blues, purples, pinks and even reds.. but never forget that you can start with any color and still achieve a successful smokey eye. So... seriously, when in doubt and not willing to settle for simple liner and gloss, Smoke It Out! and let your eyes pop, the way they should. ;-)
