For a sultry look, smoky eyes have always been the way to go. This season has seen smoky eyes reinvented with a brand new twist; a futuristic twist. Silver and gold metallic were spotted on eyes, nails AND lips (that’s right, metallic lips). This is not a look for the office, but more suited to an extravagant event or drinks with the girls. To complete the look, tone down the outfit in order to make your face/nails the focus.
