With it being Valentine's Day this weekend, and the release of the most anticipated "romance" movie of 2015, I wanted to do something a little more dramatic and smokey than your typical Valentine's Day themed makeup. This glam not only ties into the seductiveness of Fifty Shades of Grey, but is also a look that literally any makeup lover can re-create!
This sultry eye look consist of the same three colors on both the lid and lower lash line, with a hint of shimmer in the inner corners.
You can totally swap the winged liner for a simple line, or ditch the liner all together and rock lots of flirty lashes.
By having skin bronzed and glowing with subtle contours, the focus remains on your mysterious gaze that even Christian Grey himself couldn't resist!
I opted for a flesh toned liner in my water line vs. black to help brighten eyes, giving off the illusion of a more doe-eyed look.
Even though this makeup is on the more dramatic side, it is still soft and flirty enough to rock this Valentine's Day. Finish with a baby pink pout, and you're ready to celebrate confidently with your boo, your girlfriends, or your selfies!
