One of the trendiest colors this year waschocolate brown.
So why not use the popular hue to create a smoky eye, as seen here on Lori Harvey?

If you want to ditch thetraditional black and grey smoky shadows, this is the perfect alternative.
Keep your blush and lip color minimal so the eyes are the start of the show.
The bright colorway is sophisticated enough to wear on New Year’s Eve while still feeling a bit unexpected.

Whether it’s red, fuschia, or deep cranberry, bold lipstick never fails for any special occasion.
Exaggerated Blush
With cold weather comes flushed complexions.
Keep the rest of your makeup minimal with natural shadows to glossy lips.

The key iscreating a winged linerthat is thinner than traditional eyeliner.
This will help elongate and bring up the eyes.
Subtle Greys
Smoky eyes don’t always have to be dramatic.

Create a lighter, hazy eyeshadow look by using matte shadows and lots of mascara.
Elevated Liner

Make your eyes the star of the show.
Use a gel black pencil that melts softly into the skin and applies easily.

Then, spread it along the lash line with aprecise eyeliner brush.
This creates that coveted thin line and aids in perfecting your wing shape.
This creates both depth and volume on the eyes and doesn’t require any intricate shadow looks.

Keep the rest of your makeup simple with some color on the cheeks and light lipgloss.
Plum Smoke
Plum and purple tonesare notorious for enhancing every eye color.
Depending on whether you use warm or cool-toned shadows will determine the perfect blush and lip combo.

Keeping your entire look in the same color family will yield the most cohesive finish and compliments.
Graphic Statement
Graphic lineris a statement suitable for New Year’s Eve and beyond.
We especially love the contrast between a metallic shadow and darker hues.

The smokier, the better, in our opinion.
Don’t believe us?
Just look at how Kelly Rowland demonstrates how chic, smoky eyes can look.
