If you find a dark black smoky eye too intimidating (or just too severe for your taste) take a page from Katie Holmes’ book at the Mission Impossible premiere in New York City. We loved the way she layered slate gray shadows with silver metallic to create a dimensional eye that was dramatic but not over the top. To get the look, start with a pale powder and fill in the inner corner of your lids. Glide a hint of silver underneath your waterline. Now, using a flat liner brush, tap an outline of a deeper shade of smoke over your outer eye and add a few false lashes to complete the look.
