Test Drive a Smoky Eye

May 9th, 2013


My attempt at blending

I received the BA Star Smoky Eye Palette from BrandBacker to review all opinions are my own.

I am no makeup artist. My blending techniques are basic at best. I know this is not my area, but I love makeup. I love a great eye shadow job that will make me look over and over again. So when I got this Smoky eye palette in the mail. I let it sit for about two weeks unopened. I didn’t know what to do with the glitter. I was afraid it would make me look like a street walker. I am a bright color girl. I love the highlight life. So smoky dark eye looks are fantastic, but not my thing. I tried it out on the day I got my hair cut. I got such great compliments from the salon. I thought I would share the look with you.
