  1. knight devine and electra. They are excellent. I have blue eyes also and i usually use mac's browns and neutral colors. I love them all it is so hard to choose.  


  2. The contrast of your blue eyes to a dark, dramatic smokey look would be show-stopping.

    In my opinion, I believe using blacks and grays for your smokey eye would make your blue eyes pop since it's a contrast of light to dark.

    If you want a more natural smokey eye, using brown is always fine!

    I honestly think that the best eyeshadows for the dark smokey eye would be MAC eyeshadow in Club (it's limited edition.. but a decent DUPE of this color would be Silver Ring) and Carbon (a matte black, AH LOVE IT!)

    For the brown-based smokey eye, I love MAC eyeshadow in Espresso (a golden deep dark brown) and Soba (golden brown to accent the darker brown).

    The best and only way to get a great look no matter what eyeshadows you decide to use it a good blending brush. I love the 222 brush from MAC, perfect blending brush! The effect of the smokey eye is the blending technique because from the inner part of your eye, should be a lighter color than the color on the other end of your eye. You blend those two together, and blend upward and you'll have great results.

    ALSO, you need a eyeshadow base. Without this, the colors will not stay long, it will start to crease, and the colors will not be true to what you see in the pot. I love MAC paintpots, especially in Soft Ochre and Painterly. You can also use the cult-favorite, UDPP (Urban Decay Primer Potion).

  4. Beauty marked and Mulch. Toegether they look really nice.

    Try Applying the mulch to your entire lid. Then line the top and bottom lashes with the beauty marked. You will get that smokey look.

  5. off white, and dark gray
