I love doing a smokey eye with a pop of gold or silver. Some people think it's a bit over the top to add that much of a black color for a daily look but hey..sometimes you have to try and be different and experiment to discover what kind of looks and colours can enhance certain parts in your face.

What I love to use for a smokey eye is the Urban Decay Naked2 Palette. Beside the excellent colours that it contains for daily looks, it has the best silver eyeshadow in the whole world, as I never have seen such a heavy pigmented silver on any other palette or eyeshadow.
Even without a eyeshadow base it's pretty good pigmented but I still recommend to use a eyeshadow base at all times, as it just gives you that extra highlight in the pigment of any eyeshadow, and with this silver it just gives you the extra bit!

| Colour Swatch for achieving a Silver Smokey Eye Look |
I used 'Tease' as a transition colour following with 'Blackout' in the outer V. Than I applied the ever hot silver shade 'Pistol' and dabbed the colour on the 3/4 of the lid starting at the tear duct. At the very start of the tear duct I dabbed a spot of 'Verve' just to open up the eyes. After this step I blended the crease and its colours to eliminate any harsh lines. And last but not the least a little bit of 'Foxy' for the under brow area.
After the eye shadows, complete the eye-look with a eyeliner and some Mascara or false lashes...
And voila below you can find the achieved look.
Hope you liked it beauties!
