How To Create Stunning Brown Smokey Eye Makeup Using Eyebrow Pencil?
What do you need to create brown smokey eyes? The first thing that pops in your mind is undoubtedly an eyeshadow palette. But what if we say that you can create sultry smokey eyes with just your go-to eyebrow pencil? Your reliable eyebrow pencil can accomplish so much more than
simply shaping your arches. With a few easy steps and the correct eyebrow makeup shades, you can achieve a beautiful brown smokey eye that is ideal for any event.
Step-by-step Guide on Creating Brown Smokey Eye With Eyebrow Pencil
You can now create the stunning smokey eye makeup without even touching your eyeshadow palette. Here’s a step-by-step tutorial to become a brow-pencil-smokey-eye master:
Step 1: Prime Your Eyelids
Start your brown smokey eye makeup with primed eyelids. Apply a thin layer of concealer, foundation, or eyeshadow primer on your lids to create a smooth canvas, ensure easy blending, and makeup color pop and long-lasting.
Step 2: Build the Base
Beginners, take notes! You should always create the smokey eye base with light color. Apply light
brown eyebrow pencil gently all over your eyelids. Focus on the part nearest to your lash line. Once done, blend it upwards with your finger or a fluffy brush for a warm base.
Step 3: Add Depth with Natural Brown
Take out the natural brown pencil from your arsenal. Apply it along your lash line. Soften the edges with a brush or the tip of your finger. You can add depth to your crease by applying this shade and blending thoroughly.
Step 4: Add Dimension with Grey Brown
Now comes the most interesting and intense step! For that mysterious and captivating look, use your grey-brown pencil to darken the outer V of your eye. This cool brown shade neutralizes other colors and takes the smokey eye makeup to the next level. Now, lend, blend, blend so there aren’t any
rough lines!
Step 5: Smudge & Smoke the Lower Lash Line
Don’t forget your lower lash line! Apply all three shades and softly smudge your lower lash line. Start with light brown, followed by natural brown, and a hint of grey-brown on the lower outer V. This will help create a balanced smokey eye look that ties the entire eye together.
Step 6: Draw Your Brows
Draw eyebrows as per your natural shape. Don’t overdo it, as you wouldn’t want to draw much attention to your brow instead of your sultry eyes.
Step 7: End with Creamy Mascara
Ditch regular mascara and use creamy eyebrow makeup (that comes with a spoolie) to adorn your precious lashes. The application process remains the same for both these products. Wiggle the
brown eyebrow makeup wand across your lashes for a light, fluttery finish.
And that’s it! A stunning, brown smokey eye that is both simple to create and flattering. Makeup is fun when you have the right products and have mastered eye makeup blending techniques. So, put down those daunting palettes and give your eyebrow pencil a chance to show its skills in the eyeshadow realm.
