Smokey Eye Tutorial using Urban Decay's Smoked Palette

Hi guys!  So a few posts ago, i shared my new Smoked Palette by Urban Decay with you.  A few of you mentioned that you would like to see a tutorial on creating a smokey eye.  I decided to put this video together to illustrate such.  I used only this palette, though i have to tell you that typically i like to mix it up and use other shadows as well.  I figured that for this video, i'd only use this UD palette.  I will show you other looks using some of my other favorite palettes in the near future.  I hope you like it!  I apologize in advance that some of the angles aren't the best, i'm still working on perfecting the video thing.  I'll get there eventually.  Let me know your thoughts!  Have you tried this UD palette yet?  Oh and Jeeda... this one's for you!  xoxo Carla

Urban Decay - Smoked Palette

I'm a huge fan of Urban Decay shadows! In fact, i could not imagine a day in my life without my naked 2 palette.  I'd feel so... naked!  Well, recently i noticed some buzz about Urban Decay's Smoked Palette.  Lucky for me, i actually WON this gorgeous palette over on dBeauty Junkie blog just as i was about to make the big purchase!  Thank you Aimee for your generous giveaway! 

Well, this palette is puuuurrrrrfect for Fall because, lets face it, as the weather cools downs, who doesn't love themselves a great smokey eye?!  This palette has all the essentials to take your eyes  from blah to hot momma with just a few strokes of your shadow wand!  The shadows are highly pigmented, in typical UD fashion, so a little goes a long way.  Here are some photos and swatches:

The swatches from the bottom row (left to right) are as follows: Barlust, Rockstar, Evidence, Loaded, Asphalt.

This gorgeous palette also includes 24/7 Glide-On Eye Pencil in Perversion... and glide on it does! It's highly pigmented, meaning, you will certainly get impact with this pencil and it glides on very smoothly! You will also get a travel size Eyeshadow Primer so your gorgeous smokey eyes are sure to stay put all day long!

 

It doesn't end there... you'll also get the Smoked Get The Look Book, which is filled with different smokey eye looks as well as step by step instructions on how to achieve these stunning looks.
