Quick and Easy 5 Minute Smoky Eye with Urban Decay

Product Sent for Review

 super fast smoky eye lookSo, I got a package in the mail a few days ago from Urban Decay, and I really could not wait to break into the products! This is my super fast smokey taupe-y eye look from yesterday. It took me about 5 minutes (minus a few extra minutes for taking pics) while my two year old was waking up from her nap.

quick and easy eye makeupHere’s what I used (after prepping with NYX eye primer):
Urban Decay Easy Baked Eye Shadow
Urban Decay Mushroom 24/7 Glide-On Shadow Pencil
Urban Decay Perversion 24/7 Eye Liner Pencil
Maybelline The Rocket Mascara, lots of it!

Read on to see what I did.

Fast smoky eye for every dayI started with Easy Baked over my entire lid, up over the crease just a little bit. I then used the Mushroom Glide-On Shadow Pencil along my upper lid. I started thicker at the outer edge and tapered as I went in.

Once it was blended a bit I grabbed the Perversion 24/7 Liner and applied it to the top and bottom lash line, really concentrating on getting the liner into the lash line.

easy eye shadowNext I blended, blended and blended some more! I have a great smudge brush from Sonia Kashuk that can really help to grab that liner and blend it out.

A good curl and 2 coats of the Maybelline mascara, and I’m done!

    Suggestions for a different UDecay product instead of the Easy Baked? I have the Naked2 pallet…one from there?

    I have the Mushroom eyeliner. It is such a gorgeous color. Very pretty look!

    I'd try bootycall. Half baked is a bit more fold, but the light shade with shimmer is what I was going for

    Using a cream OVER a powder. I'm going to have to give this a try. Thanks for posting this!

    Looks so easy here but when I`m in front of the mirror it`s impossible, even today I fail to do my eye line, hope someday I`ll succeed because I really love when I see girls looking so good, having wonderful eyes. Thanks for the tips

    This is such a nice, simple look. Does the mascara start smearing over the day? I have that problem w mascara and try to curl my lashes but they stick straight to prevent smudging. So I've only been using the loreal double extended beauty tube mascara but I certainly don't experience a lash enhancement like your pics show.

    I've never tried an Urban Decay product I didn't like. Love this simple look! I'm going to do my makeup with a NAKED palette tomorrow. It's been a while since I've pulled those out!
