Face of the Day ~ Brown Smoke

Posted by in FotD, looks | 6 comments

Another look from last weekend. It was a social night, meeting up with a few different groups of friends. I was originally going to do the classic silver/black smokey eye, but then decided that smoking it out with brown was more to my liking. In retrospect it reminds me of a fellow beauty blogger, Beda. She is the queen of brown infused smokey eyes. Despite the muted colours compared to Bright Smoke, I received quite a few compliments that night. Thanks for the inspiration Beda!

      And yes, it’s just one of those looks that I love, but it’s not the first thing to come to mind. You should post a look. :]
