As most of the people know, to blend well the eye shadows is the key to beautiful smokey eyes. Other than the blending skill, you also need to be careful to choose shimmer and matte shadow. Usually, when people wish to have smokey eyes, they prefer the matte look to the shimmer look.
What you need for smokey eyes basically is three eye shadows. You should have a highlight, a mid-tone finally a contour color. When the three are blended well together with the eyeliner and mascara, they make your eye looks bigger and 3D. It is recommended you to choose a shimmer one as your highlight, a matte one as your mid-tone. For the contour, it is just up to you. You can choose depends on what is the overall look you want.
Start to have your smokey eyes by doing the all the foundation work first. You should clean your eyes and apply eye base, foundation and concealer. After that, you can use eyeliner with color similar to your overall tone to draw the upper and lower eye lines.
Then you can start the smokey eyes by applying the highlight onto the whole upper eye lid first. Then you can apply the mid-tone one onto the upper lid also but not the whole lid. Mid-tone is only applied from the lash line to the crease. Blend well the line where the two colors joint. Apply the contour again from the lash line to crease. Blend well again. Finally, smudge the contour on the lower lash line.
For the very final step, remember to apply the mascara (heavily). A very black and volume increasing one is highly recommended for the smokey eye look. That is so easy to have the smokey eyes!

In fact, you can use the same techniques for smokey eyes but using different darker colors like purple, dark green, dark blue, copper, etc. You can choose other colors that are suitable for you according to your skin tone, eye color and hair color. A simple rule is to match the same color tone with your eye color like blue eye ladies can try dark blue and green eye ladies can try dark green.
