Hi Darlings, in today’s #MakeupMonday I’m going to share with you this Warm & Grey Smokey Eye.
When I first shot this look, I didn’t like it. I was playing with the L’Oreal x Karl Lagerfeld palette but I wasn’t happy with the look. I couldn’t redo it so I went with it to work but I decided to reshoot it another time.
Turns out, I got a few compliments about it at work and from a guy I have a bit of a crush on so, it had to see the light of day. I mean, OBVIOUSLY! (FYI: I’m joking, I don’t care about what people, especially men, think about my appearance. I do what I want but it’s nice to feel appreciated, ya know?)
FACE:
- Primer: Clarins Sos Primer Blurs Imperfection in 02 Peach
- Foundation: L’Oréal Infaillible 24HR Fresh Wear Foundation in 135 Vanilla
- Concealer: Too Faced Born This Way Multi-Use Sculpting Concealer in Snow
- Powder: Too Faced Born This Way Setting Powder in Translucent

EYES:
- Brows: Sephora Collection Retractable Brow Pencil in Midnight Brown + Benefit Gimme Brow in 3 Medium
- Primer: Nars Pro Prime Smudge Proof Eyeshadow Base
- Eyeshadow: L’Oreal X Karl Lagerfeld Eyeshadow Palette (not available in the US), I’ve used the second and third shade in the crease, which I’ve then deepened with the red. On the lids, I used the silver and on the outer corner, I’ve put the second to last shade. I used the red and the dark grey on the lower lashline, as well. On the inner corner and browbone I used the pink.
- Eyeliner: Benefit Roller Liner + Essence Long Lasting Eye Pencil in Black Fever to tightline.
- Mascara: Maybelline Snapscara
LIPS:
- Lipstick: L’Oréal Paris x Karl Lagerfeld Colour Riche Lipstick in Kultured
To set it all in place I used the Mario Badescu Aloe Facial Spray.

I love a smokey eye! It is perfect when you are going for a little more than a natural look. (Reciprocated by Natasha Romero-Salas)
Oh wow, this may be one of my faves on you yet. Love when cool and warm tones are mixed together!
Love this look! It’s the perfect fall makeup look. I love the lip color and will definitely look into a similar color.
Glad you like it x
I do like this look, it is very simple and makes your eyes stand out. The gray looks very pretty on your eyelids especially because it sparkles.
