  You don’t need fancy tools! Wet N Wild makes decent eyeshadow, Target has a great set of brushes called “smokey eye” for $15. Until you can buy brushes, q-tips work great! And fingers for smudging. ... See more There’s a YouTube video about smokey eyes w/ only your fingers, try & put in the search box, you’ll find it! Good luck!

  Hey Kerry! Thanks for the great advice! I agree — until recently I was using my fingers and Q-Tips to put on all of my eye makeup. :) Welcome to AWS!

  you dont need expensive makeup or tools to do smokey eyes, its all about the color shades and how you blend them
  you can use a simple foam shadow applicator from your local pharmacy, youll ... See more need eyeliner, cause it serves as an outline…. and two shades of shadow (one must be a light shade and the other dark) it can be any color.

im a make up artist , some coulours on people dont allways suit them and you could be one ! mabe the smokey eye isnt ment for you. a key to gettting a great eye ... See more colour for the smokey look is blending coulours and putting lighter and darker on differet bits of the eye. a super shock masacra is soo helpsull and makes it look dramatic and some glossy red lips give you the super star look and rember take your time

  Hi. Welcome to AWS!
  
  You just have to keep practicing. Or maybe it might work better for you if someone walked you through the steps in person.
