A smoky eye is a classic makeup look. It’s something that will never go out of style, just like red lipstick or healthy, glowing skin. That being said, doing the same look over and over and over can sometimes be a bit boring. That’s why it’s good to switch things up once and a while.
I’m all for tradition, but I’m also for getting creative and trying new things. Because isn’t that half the fun of wearing makeup? So, be bold and try breaking away from your black eyeshadow now and again. If you don’t want to give up your black eyeshadow completely, consider mixing it with some unexpected beauty products.
