Innovative new two-step system for big, bold, colorful smoky eyes

Forget a charcoal, goth-like smoky eye, the latest trend to sweep the red carpet is the colorful smoky eye – and we couldn’t be happier. What better way to wash away all memories of cold winter months and usher in the spring (and hopefully warmer weather…), than by trading in our blacks and browns for some bright shades?

CoverGirl creative design director Pat McGrath gave us a simple two step low-down on how to achieve this look – as seen on Drew Barrymore — using the just-launched Smoky ShadowBlast.

ShadowBlast is a smoky eye tool that debut in six complimentary shades. Each wand is created to help you quickly and easily (two of our favorite complimentary words), achieve the colorful smoky eye thanks to two precision applicator tips – one for base, one for liner/crease – so you can apply, smudge, and blend shadow to a smoky perfection.

All you have to do is –

1. Sweep the rounded end of the shadow stick over entire lid

2. Use the angled end along lash line and crease for bold definition

Best of all should you have any questions mid-application, the CoverGirl website has a Live Beauty Chat feature for you to speak to an expert beauty consultant anytime between 10am EST and 2am EST.
