I use bare minerals and was told to use a dark plum shadow,
then wet the eyeliner brush and use same shadow as a liner.
I then take a bigger brush and blend it all together. For evening I sometimes do the same with a dark coffee color or dark gray.

You have a beautiful shape to your eyes. The smokey look will be great.
You can use any Kohl pencil, don't go black, go plums, slate grays or even a brown. Follow the natural shape of the eye on the upper lash, going a little heavier at the end (outer corner) of your eye. You can use liner on the bottom of your lash but only bring it as far in as the center of your eye. You can take a Q-tip or sponge (or even your clean finger tip) and smudge the line. I use a eye liner brush with strong bristles. I can do a great smokey look with the brush, you can have more control.
Good luck and I'm sure you will look amazing.

Achieving the smoky eye is more about the technique than the color of the eyeshadow. Divide your eye in three from top to bottom...1) Brow bone 2) crease 3) lid. Apply eye shadow using a sponge tip applicator on lid only in a packing on style then blend it using an eyeshadow brush blend it out up to the crease using a circular Motion (pivoting) next apply a lighter color on the brow bone and again blend using a circular motion. Outline your eye top and bottom with a dark eyeliner pencil then with the same eyeshadow you used on your lid blend with a q-tip. Finally apply tons of mascara!

You have beautiful eyes!
One of the latest trends in eye makeup is the colored smoky eye. I would think a plum smoky eye would look wonderful and really make your eyes pop.
Stay in the same family of colors that you have in your picture. Use a black eyeliner pencil to apply a thin, thin line on your top eyelid as close to your lash line as you can get it -- it will make your lashes look fuller. Then use a dampened brush or eye makeup applicator to apply a smudgy line of dark plum liner to your upper eyelid, and -- if you like -- to your lower lid.
Sweep a slightly lighter shade of plum over your eyelid, up to your crease. Return to your dark shade to highlight your crease. For a really dramatic look, I like to make the crease shading a little bigger and more intense to the outer corner of my eye.
To finish, apply a lighter, more shimmery shade just on and under your browbone, and to the inside corner of your eye. Blend blend blend.
Apply mascara, and you're done!

Outline your eyes with black or really dark brown eyeliner, then take a dark eyshadow and blend it around the eyeliner. This way is my favorite because your eyes still stay defined because of the liner isnt being smudged itself, but you still get the smokyness from the eyeshadow. Hope that works for you!!

Start of with an eyeliner above the upper lash line. Use black or violet eyeliner. For the bottom of your eyelids, use a lighter color eyeliner of eyeshadow, like a gray, and make sure you smudge it. Apply some lighter eyeshadow on the top of your eyelids, and darker towards the bottom of your eyelids. Make sure that you blend them in. Good luck!

alright, ur skin is not really white so u could use a little gold or brown colour , even if they do not really math. put the gold one up and down ur eye.if u also have a darker colour put it up on the outer sides and down on the inner sides. don't let it be very noticed. also let ur eye-liner match ur clothes so that u don't look stupid with a different colour. that way it'll seem like ur eyes are smoky looking without noticing u used make up! hope i helped!

All these tips are good. But practice at home. You don't want to look like a racoon. Also its should be neat not messy looking . Then its a bad job. Also dont' know your age. but if your older I wouldnt' recommend it so much makes you look older.

use a grey, silver, or black eyeshadow and put on your lids. Then use a grey, silver or black eyeshadow and put it on your crease. Then get a highlighter and put it on your arch eye brow. then put a thick line of black liquid liner.
