Applying eye make-up can be a daunting task. Just the thought of trying a nice smokey eye turns my stomach in which I feel completely inadequate when I end up looking like a racoon instead of Kim Kardashian. Ok so maybe I don’t have a glam squad with me 24/7 but aside from the usual mascara and eye-liner, there is something to be said about a flawless application and Smashbox has the solution for you.
