Step 1: Prep skin with a lightweight foundation. For a matte finish that will keep the focus on eyes, zap excess oil with pressed powder, says Blandino. To try: Almay Powder Skin Stays Clean.
Step 2: Using a deep purple of black eyeliner (such as CG Smoothers Eyeliner in Onyx), follow the contour of upper and lower lashes. Then sweep a shadow in a similar tone across lids. The hottest shades are plum, eggplant and lavender—are super wearable says Strong. Follow with a pale highlighter just above the crease. To try: M.A.C. Eye Shadow in Nocturnelle. Rimmel Metallic Eye Gloss in Notting Hill. For a range of color options, choose a multihued palette like Victoria’s Secret Eye Artistry Shadowing Pallette in pastel Plum or Revlon Illuminance Crème Shadow in wild Orchids. Go for glamour with a gold shade, says Wende Zomnir, creative director of Urban Decay. Curl lashes and apply two coats of thickening mascara, such as Dior MaximEyes Mascara in Plum.
Step 3: Impart a natural dewiness with a translucent gel on the apples of your cheeks. Golden shades flatter a tawny tone, while pinks are best for fair complexions, say Zomnir.
Step 4: Finish with a nude gloss.
