DHAKA: This week’s beauty tip is on ‘Dramatic Dark Eyes’. Take your makeup box and try…

Kristen’s Dramatic Dark Eyes

Who: Kristen Stewart

The Expert: Celebrity makeup artist Jillian Dempsey (Twitter: @JillianDempsey)

The Look: Dramatic dark eyes

The Tip: 

1. Prep your lids with an eye primer to keep makeup from melting off. (Jillian used By Terry Hyaluronic Hydra Primer on Kristen).

2. Use a dark eyeliner (Jillian likes Chanel Stylo Yeux Waterproof Eyeliner in Noir Intense) to line the upper and lower lash lines. Wedge the tip of the eyeliner in between the individual lashes to fill in any spaces. You don't want any visible gaps in the lashes.

3. Apply a medium grey eyeshadow all over your eyelids as the base shade, and a darker slate grey in the creases, extending it towards the outer corners of the eyes for an intense, dramatic effect.

4. On the inner corners, use a light shimmery shade for a little highlight. (Jillian used Chanel Quadra Eye Shadow in Mystère on Kristen).

5. Take a small nylon makeup brush and feather out the black liner to create a smudgier look. Don't worry if the makeup moves around a little. It looks cool when it's worn in!

6. Curl your lashes twice, and add two coats of black mascara to finish the look. (Jillian uses Le Volume de Chanel Mascara in Noir).

7. Since this is such a dramatic look, keep your lips understated, like Kristen's light pink shade. (Jillian used Chanel Precision Lip Definer in Pretty Pink here).
