We have another article featured on EzineArticles.com starting today.

Go and read MAC Cosmetics - How to Achieve the Smokey Eye Look to learn how to create that coveted smokey eye look using MAC Make-up, or substitute using similar colors of your favorite cosmetics.

I really love the smokey eye look in this image to the right. I found this photo via Zemanta on flickr. The photo is called Carbon Black M.A.C. Eyeshadow Smokey Eyes, by dreamglow pumpkincat210. I think the smokey eye look really complements her green eyes, or maybe it's just the green eye that I like so much. I really can't decide which it is. But I'm sure you'll agree, this image and make-up job is fantastic, and was done entirely by using MAC Cosmetics. She also has several other photos of make-overs and eye make-up tricks she's done, so go check out her page and her photos. You'll find some great eye make-up tips and techniques there.

Not into this particular smokey eye? Check out a few more examples on Google images. As you can see, there are various ways to achieve this look using various shades of gray, black, and even purples and violets. Some use matte shades, while others add a bit of shimmer to their look. There are a number of styles to the smokey eye, and your options are limitless.
