Give Me Glam!

Chanel Iman upped the ante on smokey eye makeup at the Vandal Grand Opening in New York City last week. The model-tuned-actress ditched smoking her lids and smoked her lower lash line instead. Opting for a grey hue instead of a dramatic black left room for her to play with a deep burgundy lip. We’ve broken down the look so you can try it for your next night out!

Shimmer and Smoke

Begin by priming your upper and lower lids. Apply a neutral shadow in a taupe hue to your upper lids, then dust your lower lid with a gunmetal shadow like Ciate London Skinny Shadow Stick Shimmer Eyeshadow in Moonwalk. Blend the upward into your lower lash line with your favorite blending brush.
