EOTD: Bohemian Smokey Eyes

First of all, pardon the uneven blended edge on the crease ladies. I was not wearing my contact lenses the day I took these pictures due to which I missed out spotting the unblended end, yikes!

This look is inspired by the unconventional colors in the Sleek Bohemian Palette hence the title of the post. I only used matte colors for this look to add some drama and to bring out the depth of the colors.

It is so much fun and different working with matte colors as the look turns out to be completely different than what it would have been using the same colors with a shimmery finish.

And don't we just love that skin colored matte color in this palette? It is superbly pigmented and completely natural for on-the-go looks. I incorporated it within the deep colors to add some brightness to the center of the lid, especially when there is a lot of drama going around on the rest of the eye.

If you notice, I kept the crease color pointing slightly upwards, as I did not want a typical sunken crease and wanted to lift the eyes a little.

The rhinestones were completely random, just to give a boho-chic effect. All the colors I used were from the Sleek Bohemian Palette.
