As the saying goes, the eyes are the windows to one’s soul. Now smokey eyes, on the other hand, are much like dark, tinted windows with lace curtains – mysterious and eye-catching.
This makeup trend has been around for quite some time (literally since the times of Cleopatra and ancient Egypt) and we’ve been witness to a plethora of new styles and colour combinations. We see them in nightclubs, on runways and red carpets, at weddings and even funerals. Whether opting for a subtle, brown smoked look or the complete black-out style, a smokey eye can truly complement practically any ensemble.
We’ve picked out a few celebrity smokey eye looks that will leave you wide-eyed and ready to grab your makeup kit!
