Affordable Smoky Eye: Featuring The Nudes Palette from Maybelline

I plan on getting plenty of use out of The Nudes Palette from Maybelline. A nude eyeshadow palette wouldn’t be complete without the colors to do a smoky eye. Here is a smoky eye look to try. I used the third quad in The Nudes Palette.

Eyes

Used NYX Jumbo Eye Pencil in Black Bean as a base to the lid and crease

Applied the dark brown eyeshadow to the crease

Applied the black shadow to the lid

Used the light brown shadow as a blending color and also applied it to the brow bone

Used the shimmering beige shadow under the highest point of the eyebrow arch

Applied NYX Slide On Eye Pencil in Jet Black to the upper and lower lash line as well as the water line

Smudged the black eyeshadow to the lower lash line

Applied Real Impact! Mascara from Maybelline to the upper and lower lashes

Applied Maybelline Master Glaze™ Blush in Plums Up to the cheeks

Applied Maybelline Color Sensational® The Buffs lipstick in Touchable Taupe
