#TACKLETHETREND Blue smoky eye

There is honestly nothing sexier than a smoky eye, it enhances your eye colour and gives you instant 'come to bed' eyes. Such a simple way to glam up your makeup. However one can get a teensy bit bored with the classic black and grey smoky eyes. Many 2016 catwalk shows incorporated graphic blue hues into the models makeup, including Marc Jacobs and Giambattista Valli. Also seen on a very iconic photo of Kim K on instagram. Blue looks insanely beautiful on deep brown eyes but can also accentuate green and blue. So if you're looking to inject some colour into your makeup routine this could be a great way to spice up a night out look.

                                        Here are some of the best smoky blue's on social media.

Product details

For a statement eye like this I usually advise to keep the rest of the makeup pretty neutral, nude glossy lips and lightly contoured cheeks fit perfectly. Also I personally feel smoking out and softening all the edges of blue eyeshadow looks a lot nicer and is easier to do than a more structured look,
