You’re going to want very dense, lush looking lashes for this smoky look. That means multiple coats.

My go-to mascara has always been L’Oreal Voluminous Carbon Black. This is a “night out” makeup, so I’d opt for the waterproof…just in case your night gets WILD!

I get the most dramatic, clump-free results by applying a few thin coats of mascara. I coat the lashes, then comb through with a clean mascara spoolie or an eyelash comb. I let each coat dry completely before moving to the next. It usually takes 3 light coats on upper lashes and, at least, two coats on lowers to get the most dramatic results. If you’re lash-challenged, you could add a set of feathery false eyelashes, but make sure they look pretty, not drag-ish (you know what i mean…lol).

Finishing The Look

I avoid using obvious blush color when eye makeup is this strong – the cheek color competes with the beautiful neutrality of the eyes. Try using a bronzer instead. I feel the same way about lip color, it should be closer to nude, so it doesn’t compete for attention with those sultry eyes.
