Beauty Guru Post: A Super Easy Way to do a Smoky Eye

Smokey eyes are one of my favorite makeup looks. They're gorgeous, sultry, and....... can be pretty darn complicated to do! I've looked up a gazillion tutorials and even though the eye kits does make it simpler, it can also be a little much for our beauty budgets. So I've come up with a super simple way of getting that same look without breaking the bank. I've doing this method for awhile now and I have to say it's a hit everytime!

The trick to this look is a simple layering of three shades of the same color. I've done this makeup look with blues, purples, and even greens . For this tutorial I used a light grey, dark grey, and black from the Pin Up POP palette.
