The Smokey Eye Makeup look is one of the most classic and timeless beauty in beauty history. You could rock a smokey eye makeup look anywhere from a night out to a wedding. No matter your outfit, the smokey eye makeup looks will surely compliment your outfit. If done subtly, it can be worn to work. The smokey eye makeup looks best with a nude lip, but if you opt for bold, you can pair it with bold red lips. So here are some hacks to create the perfect smokey eye makeup look.

I always feel like the Mascara completes the look. The larger and more voluminous your lashes, the wider your eyes look.
