Today I have another Face of The Day look for you which is an evening look that I think would suit a lot of people. Enjoy!
On Thursday I posted a review of the Stila in The Light Eyeshadow Palette which if you want to read my review before finishing this post then just click on that link and it will open up a new tab for you. I adore this palette and instead of creating an every day look, I thought I'd show you how you can create a smokey look that's not too dramatic (in my opinion, it could be dramatic to you) This look I think is ideal for a night on the town, out for a nice meal, going to bars ect, anywhere that you want your makeup to stand out a bit more than normal, without looking like you have been slapped in the face!

As I said in my review, I adore this eyeshadow palette, it's so versatile! You can totally add more to the eyes if you want a really dramatic look, add more black to more of the eye and add some lashes maybe? As for the lips, this kind of eye look you can get away with wearing pretty much any shade you like. I always opt for a matte red when I'm going 'out out' or perhaps wear a nude lip with a pink undertone to really make your eyes be the main feature!
I hope you enjoyed this post and maybe found a look you would like to recreate. If you'd like to see another look using the Stila In the Light Eyeshadow Palette then do let me know in the comments.
