Would smokey eyes make up look good on dark skinned girl?

absolutely. it looks good on anyone... you just have to learn how to apply it. here is my smokey eye...step by step and simple as can be... (feel free to substitute lighter shades for the ones i mention)





start with a thin layer of shadow base or eye primer (urban decay primer potion, mary kay eye primer, merle norman automatic shadow base, or mac eye primer)





black or dark grey shadow in the shape of a sideways V on the corner of the eye, working into the crease with a flat shadow brush (i use merle norman shadow in ebony and a palladio flat shadow brush)





lighter grey shimmer shadow over the lid with a contour shadow brush, blending into the first darker shade (i use mac shadow in idol eyes and a mark contour brush)





silvery/champagne shimmer shadow under the brow bone and dotted on inner corners of eyes with full shadow brush (i use merle norman luminous shadow in sum beam and an avon shader brush)





black liner all the way across top lid, slightly thicker on outer edges, and 3/4 way across bottom (avon glimmersticks liner in blackest black)





sweep thin line of medium shimmer grey under lower lash line, below and slightly over black liner





curl lashes and add 2 coats of volumizing black mascara (maybelline volum' express turbo boost 7Xs mascara in black)











-you can also do a smokey eye with shades of brown, purple, green... any color.








here are the shades i recommend from a few different brands for the basic black/grey....





-from mac: black tied, charred OR idol eyes, and shroom


-from lancome: the new black, style section OR volcano, and off the rack


-from merle norman: ebony, zinc OR stay steel, sun beam


-from avon: night sky, steel OR slate, iced silver











stila (at sephora) has a smokey eye kit that has 4 shadows in a palette...push a tiny button and a voice speaks instructions to you. there is also a holographic image of an eye that shows where the different shades go when you turn it. $40





also available at sephora are hard candy and smashbox. hard candy makes a shadow quad called ';techno'; that sells for $28, and smashbox makes a shadow trio called ';twilight'; that sells for $30. both are good for grey smokey eyes.








for drugstore palettes, try revlon, loreal, covergirl and maybelline. i know all of those lines carry them, but not sure of the names. avon also has a shadow quads.





always keep lips light... glossy nudes are great with sexy smokey eyes.Would smokey eyes make up look good on dark skinned girl?
Of course!! As a black woman, I love doing the smoky eyes for nights out. It is great when followed by a nude glossy lip. If you are dark skinned try a lipgloss with a gold tint over nude(light brown) lipstick....tres cute!!





Also when doing the smoky eye, use a bit of shimmer on your upper lid. that will make the dark makeup pop even moreWould smokey eyes make up look good on dark skinned girl?
if its applied the right way and flatters you,


then yes


but thats with any1, light or dark!!!
As long as its applied right, I think it would.
~Yes smokey eyes seem to look good on every girl now %26amp; days. Just have to apply it right. And use a good kind of makeup, i love MAC eye shadows,they last all day %26amp; night! they can even show you how to apply it the right way @ the store to where it will look great %26amp; you can do it all the time~
like greyish? idk possibly but i would have to see it on you to really judge it, you know liek your acurate skin color and all
The smokey eye makeup may be to dark for your skin, that it would be better to use a lighter color to make your eyes stand out. Applying dark makeup would be to dark. Need to highlights on your skin.
Exactly- if it is applied right. So on a dark-skinned face go with the smokey eyes but ALSO wear pinkish lipstick- here..
Yeah! I saw a kinda punkish-gothish girl who did it and it looked really good on her.
