Today we looking  at how to do Smokey eyes using sellotape 

We know there are many ways to to get the smokey eye look but today we are looking at how to do Smokey eyes using sellotape .
Smokey eyes can be a bit daunting if you’re not confident with makeup.  Today we are looking at a slightly different method using sellotape which is a really easy way to create a strong and symmetrical smokey eye, without making a mess!
1. Apply primer to your eye lids and fill in your brows.
2. Pop your tape on! Make sure it is in the same place on each eye otherwise your makeup will be wonky.
3. If you’re wanting a dark look, use an eyepencil to fill in your lid and across your lashline, then blend with your brush, this will also help guide you when you place your eyeshadow.
4. Apply a dark eyeshadow over your eyeliner to set it, then blend. When using tape, it does  not matter if you end up blending too far out, the tape stops your eyeshadow going anywhere it shouldn’t!
5. You can  add another colour if you so wish blend the eyeshadow though the crease. You can use whatever and however many colours you like, as long as you blend them properly.
6. Apply eyeliner gel eyeliner blends better and gives a softer effect using sellotape which helps to create a flick.
7. Remove your tape. Carefully! It sticks quite well so don’t whip it off, I did, and had to take recovery time!
8. Soften the harsh line created by the tape with a foundation brush.
9. Add eyeliner under your eye. Use an angle brush and the colours you used on your eyelid, really focusing on darkening the outer corner.
10. Add  mascara and you’re good to go!
A smokey eye like this works really well with lots of contouring  and blending remember dramatic eyes only works when the lips are neutral.
