Two different poses in two days - I really am spoiling you!
As part of my shake-up my make-up challenge, after I gave you retro look overload (see here, here and here), I decided to go back to Beauty School Basic's with a soft smokey eye.
It really is a classic, and I'm sure you can see why - rock it up with a leather jacket and ripped jeans, or pair it with your favourite little black dress, the possibilities are endless. Even better, it suits practically every skin tone, and adds effortless cool. To put it quite simply, you need to have this look up your sleeve.
I've toned down the eye, but feel free to abuse your eyeliner, the more smudged you get, the cooler you'll look,
(don't have a smudging brush - use an earbud).

Looks gorgeous. I am pretty good with the dark kind but I need to get better at something lighter and soft like this.
