Smoky Eyes (3/3)

Smoky eyes don’t have to be dramatic. For a daytime look, choose softer shades to create the same open-eyed effect. Smoky eyes can make your eyes appear bigger and more awake, perfect for an everyday look.

Use neutral tones like beige, taupe, and light brown for a subtle yet gorgeous smoky eye. A cream eyeshadow or a nude eyeshadow palette is great for this soft smoky effect.

Daytime Makeup Rules

The line between daytime and evening makeup is becoming less defined, but there are still a few guidelines to follow for a balanced, everyday look:

• If you’re going for smoky eyes, skip the lower lash mascara for a fresher, more natural look.
• If you love eyeliner, keep it light on the bottom lash line, and opt for neutral tones on the upper lid.
• Balance is key! Pair bold eyes with neutral lip colors, or keep eyes soft and light if you’re going for a bold lip.
