Hello my lovelies, today I am doing a quick Purple Smoky Eye Tutorial using Marc Jacobs Eye-Conic shadow palette and playing with a Fenty highlighter. Since I have a hooded eye it’s not a traditional smoky eye with a full dark lid. Instead I’ve chosen to do a modified smoky with a silver lid. I’ve used the dark purple in the crease to minimize the appearance of my droopy/hooded lid. I had fun with this witchy purple and digging this killer smoky eye!

Hope you enjoy!

Until next time…

Eye liner always seems to be a challenge. Even more so if you’re like me and have a droopy lid brought on by genetics and now, age. During my long career I’ve run into countless eye shapes and decided I’d give a few pointers to those out there struggling with a droopy crease like mine. I hope this video helps you in finding the perfect wing for your fabulous eyes!
