Make Up Look: Sultry Smokey Using the Sleek Storm Palette
Hey guys. I always seem to get requests for smokey eyes and I'll be honest with you, smokey eyes aren't my forte. I always seem to struggle in creating something different to whats already out there! So I had a little play this week and *think* I came up with something that is a little different, darker and almost more sultry than the classic smokey eyes that I normally think of. What do you think? I know for sure, I'll be rocking this on my next night out/special occasion!
Overall I really do love this look. Its not often I actually like my own looks, but I can't wait to actually go out and wear this! The pop of gold in the center really brightens the eye, brings light to it and really dazzles! Let me know, what do you think?
Have you tried the Sleek Storm Palette? If you haven't, you need too!

Love it. The navy in the inner corner as well as the outer corner looks amazing. I've not seen a look like this before, well done you :)
ReplyDeleteI really get inspired every time I look at your make up pictures. :D

Thank you, you are so so lovely to me! I appreciate your comments every single time Juyey :) I thought the dark inner corner really added something!
DeleteSuch a lovely look! How do you get the 'winged' lines so sharp, but still smokey?! Honestly, I would end up with it all over my face.

Thank you Sam :) I literally make a wing using pencil eyeliner, like you would normally. I then blend it out a little bit but keep within the original wing and then go over it with shadow to get it "smokey" :)
DeleteLove this look, wish i had the patience to try and recreate this ha! x

Thanks Jen :)
DeleteI am absolutely in love with this. I love the blue on the inside and outside sandwiching the gold in between. Genius. Love it!
ReplyDeleteThank you Ash :) I originally didn't do blue on the inner corner but changed it at the last minute and really liked the result!
DeleteOoh this one's a stunner! I've stupidly never tried any Sleek palettes yet, think this has convinced me I need to!
ReplyDeleteOhhh Amy you need too! They are SUCH a pleasure to use honestly :)
DeleteOh wow, that is some seriously gorgeous makeup! :D
ReplyDeleteThank you Maja :)
DeleteBeautiful! I love your looks <3 I like how this smoky eye has a highlight in the middle.
ReplyDeleteThank you again Sarah, your comments always mean the world to me. I love adding a pop of something in the middle, just to add dimension and catch the light :)
DeleteI'm so mesmerized by the way you coordinated the colors! I've never tried any Sleek palettes because they're not the easiest to get but I'd def. try this one out. A bunch of smokey shades in one palette? Yes, please!
