Yesterday I posted a dramatic look of My Smokey Classics. Today I wanted to do a very natural look, using mostly the wonderful taupey brown in it.
I intentionally applied it as natural as I wanted.
You can buy this set at Sephora for $37.
Here is Lauren Luke applying My Smokey Classics:
There is an annoying ad at the beginning, sorry!
The kit includes:
- 2 blendable primers – Nude Slip Dark & Nude Slip Light [the same shades in each kit]
- 3 flattering eye shadows – Antique Pewter, Twilight Ash & Cashmere Cream
- 1 defining eyeliner – Raven Black
- 1 contouring blush – Peach Glow
- 2 luscious lip shades – Plumberry & Cranberry Stain
- 1 My Glossy Lips lip gloss in Sheer [the same with each kit -- I like it a lot; one is now in my purse.]
Here’s my look today:
It is only the light from my camera that makes it look uneven.
Technique
Primer: I blended the two shades together, and the color exactly matched my eyelids. I have tried each color alone at other times. Then BE Queen Phyllis to lay a foundation.
Lids and drylined lower: Antique Pewter – this is a gorgeous brown — any amount of contouring was done by layering more of this color in the outer corners
Tightlined top and bottom: Black liner from palette, used very softly, so it looks almost gray.
Dry lined top center over pupil: Twilight Ash, this is sparkly and very black, similar to a MAC that I have, but very nice to have all in one place for this look. I wanted some definition, but wanted to stay natural.
Lips:
Sheer gloss on bottom lip, lightest color on top; smooshed; then rimmed and up the center with Beauté Allure gloss, a technique that plumps the lips.
Do you have this palette?
How do you like to wear it? Do you have a favorite of Lauren’s?

It looks more gold than brown! Lovely!
It has a very pretty cast to it.
