How to makeup your eyes for a chic evening?

Are you soon attending a chic evening and unsure how to makeup your eyes? Discover the tips from the MAKE UP FOR EVER Academy.

Are you about to go to a chic evening? If you already have the perfect outfit for the big night, you might not know how to do your makeup for the occasion. The MAKE UP FOR EVER Academy offers some tips for perfect evening makeup: let’s start with eye makeup.

Smoky Eyes: A Must for a Chic Evening

For a chic and refined evening, enhancing your eyes is of utmost importance. If you usually wear discreet makeup, you can indulge in an intense and smoky look.

If you want to learn all the makeup techniques for a successful evening look, we invite you to take one of our courses. For example, you will learn how to create the perfect smoky eyes for a sophisticated occasion during our “Day and Evening Beauty Makeup Course.”

By the end of this training, you will know exactly how to use the essential makeup products to create smoky eyes: eyeshadow, mascara, eyeliner, false eyelashes, and more.

One last tip: your eyes must be impeccable for the smoky eyes to look great. Before applying makeup, take the time to groom and fill in your eyebrows. Perfectly shaped with an eyebrow pencil, they will add character to your gaze. Similarly, if you have dark circles, it’s important to conceal them before starting your eye makeup: smoky eyes with a tired look are not appealing.

Intense Eye or Lip Makeup: Make a Choice!



For a chic evening, it’s tempting to sport a smoky eye and a bold red lip. However, even for a special occasion, this glamorous look may be a bit too much, especially if you usually prefer natural and discreet makeup.

For a chic evening, we recommend making a choice: emphasize your eyes or your lips?

If you want to wear a bright red lipstick, you can opt for a lighter smoky eye. Conversely, if you decide to go for a deep smoky eye, it’s best to keep your lips in a more subtle shade. Sometimes, a simple touch of gloss can make a difference and give a very glamorous touch to your evening makeup.

Finally, even if you decide to create an intense eye makeup look, don’t forget to take care of your complexion: correct any small imperfections, apply foundation for a nude effect, and add a bit of blush to your cheeks.
