Tip 5: Start smoking — kind of
Hands down the number one makeup look men preferred (after no makeup at all) is a seductive smoky eye. A lot of female readers agreed. They claimed they get the most compliments from their men when they go either completely bare (or what looks completely bare, key difference), or when they do a sexy, smoldering smoky eye paired with nude lip gloss. “My boyfriend hates it when I try experimenting with ‘hip’ colors like greens or bright blues, he says it distracts from my natural beauty,” one reader says.
So why do men love a smoky eye look? “It makes the eyes look deep and entrancing,” one says. Get the sexy eye look easily by choosing a smoky eye kit like Tarte Peep Show Smokey Eye Palette, $37 which includes all of the brushes, eyeliner and eye shadows you’ll need. Start by sweeping shadow from lash lines to creases and along your lower lash lines. Then line your eyes and inner rims with pencil liner. Finish with multiple coats of mascara. Just remember to stick to using bronzes, golds, silvers, greys and black when choosing your smoky eye palette of colors.
