Smokey Eyes Step-by-Step

One you have applied your mascara and allowed it to dry you will need to focus on cleaning up under the eye area. You may notice lots of eyeshadow or even mascara "fallout" there. Use a concealer brush, small face brush, or even a Q-tip to very lightly brush away the makeup that has fallen from your eyes and is collecting under them. If you decide to use a Q-tip, make sure not to press the eye but lightly roll the Q-tip instead. In the photo we are using the Bare Escentuals Maximum Coverage Concealer Brush to whisk away all unwanted eye makeup fallout.
