Fall 2008 Trends: Smokey / Raccoon Eyes
Now here’s a trend that’s never truly out of style. It just goes in and out of season. Fall, Winter, and evenings are the time to rock the smokey eye look. For our complete how-to on doing the smokey eye check out “Fashion 101 – Smokey Eye Makeup”.
Here’s our favorite products to achieve the smoky eye look:
What: CoverGirl LashBlast Mascara
You can’t achieve the perfect smokey eye without the perfect mascara with loads of volume and none of the clumps. Enter LashBlast. I won’t leave the house without it… If I was stranded on an island, I would want this with me so at least my eyes would look great when I was found by a rescue boat. hehe!
Price: $7.65

EVE PENCIL
What: CARGO High Pigment Pencil
This is the only eye pencil I will use. Once you find the best, there’s no need to look for anything else! The High Pigment Pencil represents cutting edge innovation for eyelining, with rich, deep color in a long-lasting, smudge-resistant formula. No more skips and tugs. This pencil delivers a smooth, even application every time. Available in black and brown.
Price: $16.00

What: CARGO Liquid Liner
CARGO’s Liquid Liner makes it easy to create the clean, classic line you have always been afraid to try. CARGO’s pen-style applicator features a nylon tip brush for superior control and slip resistance. The water-based formula provides rich, long-lasting color that resists smudging. Perfect for adding to the dramatic look of the smokey eye! (Another favorite in my makeup bag)
Price: $22.00

What: Clinique Colour Surge Eye Shadow Stay Matte in Midnight
Our softest, smoothest, richest matte shadow creates elegant intensity in one stroke. Surprisingly lightweight, long-wearing. Perfect for creating your smokey eye look.

What: CARGO Smokey Eye Kit
If you’re too lazy to buy the products separately to create the smokey eye look, than just buy the CARGO Smokey Eye Kit! We haven’t tried it ourselves, but it looks pretty good. So if you’ve ever wondered if there is a complete kit with everything you need for creating a smokey eye or raccoon eye look, then the answer is yes!
