Beautiful eyes frame the face, add drama and sum up all that is glamorous with make up! So if you are sick of your current look or want a little something different we show you how easy it is with a focus on the eye.

Taking inspiration from the latest run way shows in Italy, Paris and New York we are using the new Revlon Luxurious Colorâ„¢ Eyeliner pencil in beautifully rich new season colours along with the new Revlon ColorStay 12 Hour Eye Shadow Quads.

Base Look: Halle Berry

Our inspiration and starting point is a gorgeous and dramatic look modelled by Halle Berry. It’s a new take on a smoky eye which can be played up or down for work and play. It can also be pepped up with different colours to create new and different looks.

Step 1: Prime the eye with a little concealer to give a great base and then take your Revlon ColorStay 12 Hour Eye Shadow Quad in Sultry Smoke and apply the light purple toned neutral eye shadow (1) over the entire lid.

Step 2: Apply your second darkest colour (2) which is a navy toned blue to the lower part of the lid blending from the inside to the outside.

Step 3: Apply your third darkest colour (3), an ashy grey to the crease of the eye, working with your brow bone as a guide.

Step 4: Using a little of your darkest colour (4), apply on the lower lid and in the crease focusing on the outside of the eye and blending towards the middle. Use a little and build up colour to get a well blended result.

Tip: Having problems getting your application just right? Use the new Revlon Makeup Eraser Pen (A) to touch up or remove any residue easily and without fuss.

Step 5: Using your lightest colour, apply a dab to the inside corner of the eye to lighten and brighten the entire eye.

Step 6: Using the NEW Revlon Luxurious Color Eyeliner in Black Velvet( B) , line the upper lash line. The best way to do this is by applying a little pencil to the back of your hand, then using an angled brush, pick up the colour off your hand and dab across the upper lash line closest to the lashes. Line the bottom lashes using the same pencil, this time applying directly to the eye and smudging with the handy sponge applicator.

Tip: Line both the upper and lower lash line directly with pencil and then smudge back using the applicator before using an angled brush with your darkest colour (4) to line the eye again with eye shadow.

Step 7: Apply Fabulash Mascara to your lashes. To get the most volume, try and get your brush down right to the root before flicking up to coat the lashes.

Look Two: Lush Lavender

Inspiration: Jovivich Hawk
