how do you do smoky eye makeup without looking like a raccoon?

so smokey can be established with several different colors. Most people think they need a black eye shadow, but it doesnt always have to be that way. Also! A lot of people dont know this, but using your finger instead of an applicator helps give a more even blend of color.

I would start by using an eyeliner that is a charcoal grey. Then, I would buy a three combo eye shadow, probably in a smokey grey, a dark blue and a light blue. Use the light blue for the area directly under your eyebrows, take the grey and fill your eye lid area with that, and then use a bit of the blue to blend into the light blue and grey. You want the color to be even so it looks more natural.

by doing it light and careful

bronzer so you look tan:)

lol or just use like greys, not black! :)
