- Ombre Absolu quad: 4 neutral eye shadows (black, brown, taupe, and beige) to define your gaze before applying color. Use the black or brown as a liner, taupe for the crease, and beige to highlight. Then apply any color; you will gain in depth for your gaze.

- Crayon Khôl: black and brown are the basic Khôl to either apply on the base of the lash roots or for a Smokey eye

A newcomer to Lancôme’s mascara family: Hypnôse Drama

With its extreme volume and intense make-up, Hypnôse Drama is the perfect mascara for an intense smokey eye look. Here is how you can achieve it in less than 5 minutes:

  1. Use the Crayon Khôl 01 around the entire eye contour. Don’t hesitate to apply in between your upper lashes for a fuller look.
  2. For a soft smokey eye look, use Ombre Absolue Palette G10 and for a more intense smokey eyes use the G20. Start with the second darkest grey shade and apply it on the entire eyelid, then apply the black shade from the outer corner of the eye to the middle of the lid. If you want, highlight with the lighter shades of the palettes on the inner corner of the eye.

3.   The final touch to your smokey eye? Hypnôse Drama of course! For the most dramatic result alternate the flat curved side of the brush (volume) with the side bristles (separation) while applying the formula. And voilà, you’re done!
