SEXY SMOKY EYES THAT ROCK!!


MAKE A SPLASH WITH SILVER SHIMMER EYES



Katherine McPhee shows us how gorgeous a rich silver liner can look. “The secret to doing these beautiful eyes is to create a gradual transition from a sheer lavender to a smoky gray on your lids” say beth bender of beth bender beauty.

To get the look bender suggests starting with a thin layer of opalescent lavender cream shadow and applying over your lids. Apply along your lower lashes and the inner corner of eyes too. Next, lightly brush a shimmery gray powder shadow from the outer corners to the middle of your lids. Sweep the same color underneath the eye as seen here on Katherine. Using a lighter shade of silver, line along the inner rims for extra glisten.
