If any of you girls out there are like me, you love to laze around and procrastinate.. Well, what happens when we procrastinate too long for say, getting ready for a party? We end up screwing up our make up, BIG TIME!
So, here's a trick I use for smokey party make-up when I've wasted too much time napping or just don't feel like putting in as much effort as I would in getting ready BUT still want to look like I have! *evil laugh*

Awesome, eh? EH?? |
So here's what you need:
- Black eyeliner pencil (I used Max Factor)
- Any shimmery shadow (I used the wine colour from Jordana Sultry Eyes Quad)
- Mascara (optional, I usually use HyperCurl by Maybelline)
Step 1: If you have the time, prep- prime your eyes, apply the black pencil all over your eye lid, don't go beyond the crease, don't forget to line your lash line and waterline. Then before the pencil sets, blend it out to your crease still keeping the colour solid near the lashes.

Messy doesn't matter at this point. |
|
I just use a disposable blender to blend it out. |
Step 2: Take the shimmery shadow and pat it on all over the lid, then blend out towards the brow. Sweep it on the lower lid too! Put on some mascara if required.
|
Pat it on the eyelid area, then sweep to blend upwards. |
AND DONE!! What? You don't believe me?? Really! Done... LOOK:

Excuse my tired eyes, I'm not a morning person. X( |
It took me 10 minutes to do one eye with taking pictures. I did my other eye too, took around 3-4 minutes..
I used another shadow to show you guys. :)

Silver shadow from 88 palette. :) |
So, are you girls gonna give this look a go? Getting ready for Saturday night just got more efficient! LOL! Have you used this trick before? Or are you going to give it a shot? Let me know with your comments here or on my FB page. :)
