Doesn't that look hot?!

The bronze smoky eye is more of my "everyday look", but it seems that the metallic gold/bronze smoky eye has really taken hold as the hot makeup look for summer. Despite the perfectly blended and meticulously applied looks in these images, all it takes to get your glow on is a quick smudge of a deeper bronze shadow along the lashline and on the eyelid and blend, even with your finger. That will give you a pretty amazing and similar look with far less product and time involvement, which in the summer, is perfect. And on (preferably spray tanned) skin, with a sweep of pale shimmery peach blush and a nude or pale peach gloss on the lip, this is a pretty amazing look.

The quickest way for me in the morning to get my day-to-day bronze smoky eye is using the Smashbox Waterproof Shadow Liner in Hollywood that I love dearly with a thicker liner brush as I showed in my Eye Opening tutorial, or the TARTE SmolderEYES Waterproof Clay Eye Liner pencil in Bronze or EmphasEYES Waterproof Clay Eyeliner jar, also in Bronze. Any of those three, plus some tightlining and mascara, nail that look for me perfectly.

Here are a few of my favorites, and a most have tutorials with product listings if you want to try for yourself.
