Cranberry Smoke

Here comes a very classic fall look, the cranberry smokey eye. Honestly, I've hesitated about posting this look since it's rather boring but nevertheless it is a pretty everyday look that suits goths and non-goths alike. :)


You've heard it before, like a zillion times, but colors like these brings out green eyes. When using a shimmery shadow on my lid I like to blend it with a matte one to create different textures and thus a more interesting look.


A pop of acid green highlight in the inner corner would make the look more playful but this time I wanted to do a more wearable version so I stuck to frosty nude highlight.


You all probably know that I'm going to say that to goth up this look all you have to do is add some black lipstick. ;) That's not what I did, even though it is a great idea. I decided to go monochrome with cranberry lips and blush.

  1. Inte alls tråkig tycker jag :). Ögonskuggan framhäver verkligen din naturliga ögonfärg

    1. Vad bra! :) Haha, det är dock inte min naturliga ögonfärg. Jag lade i lite, lite grönt i den när jag redigerade bara för att jag älskar sådant här smink till gröna ögon.

  4. I like this - it's not at all boring for an everyday look! Love the cranberry lips but black would be a great combination, too. Or cranberry with black outline! Ooh, now I need some eye shadow that color... :)
