Hi Everyone,

I was literally obsessed with Nargis Fakhri’s makeup for Grazia’s October issue.I don’t think she has looked this hot in such a long time. There was an understated elegant sexiness in her pics and that lip color…I did not have anything same in my kit so I created one..the exact one.
The makeup was so classy.A modern take on smokey eye, gorgeous highlighted skin and deep warm burgundy lip shade. What’s not to love. Honestly all the products I have used in this look, you probably already have in your kit. You just have to flip them out and play with them.
The eye makeup was beautiful. It was modern take on a classic smokey eye. No winged liner, just wash of cool brown overall and soft liner drawn with an eyeshadow just to enhance the lashline. A little wing on the very outer corner of the eye to give that little edge. How to create modern smokey eyes:

Step 1 : Apply soft brown/ peachy eyeshadow in the crease.

Step 2: Apply a light wash of cool toned brown. Using the same brown eyeshadow apply it a little dark just on the outer V on the lid. This would create like a 2 tone color on the lid and would also keep the eye looking light and fresh.

Step 3: Now using a thin brush and black eyeshadow draw a little ‘V’ just on the outer corner of the eye to give a little definition. Also apply the black shadow as an eyeliner on the upper lashline, just to give definition. Almost massage the liner on the roots of the lashes.
