Sonakshi Sinha Inspired Smokey Liner

Hello all you beautiful people! As promised, here is a wearable look inspired by the beautiful Sonakshi Sinha. This look is great for a night out, a wedding or if you just feel like being glamorous! Switch up the eye shadow with any colour of your choice and use the same technique. Let's jump right in :)


 Step 1: Prime your eyelids with an eye shadow primer. I used Too Faced Eye Shadow Insurance.

Step 2: Using a pale eye shadow (I used Virgin from the Naked palette), pat the eye shadow over your lid.

Step 3: Concentrate the color on the actual lid but blend any harsh edges with a fluffy brush.

Step 4: Take your favourite black kohl pencil (I used Urban Decays Zero eyeliner) and use a flat angled brush to take product from the actual pencil tip. This will give you precision and control.

Step 5: Line your upper lash line, beginning the line from 1/3 way in. Don't start your line at your inner tea duct, rather skip 1/3 and then begin the line. Take a black eye shadow and fade that line to make it a nice smokey line but still maintaining the darkness.

Step 6: Repeat to the lower lash line.

7. Line your lips with a dark pink lip liner (I used Rosebud from Avon) and fill in your lips with a peachy lipstick (I used Just Peachy from Wet n Wild).

Step 8: Blend so there are no harsh edges.

And voila! Easy as that. Feel free to elongate your liner if you want a more cat eye effect.
