So why shouldn’t it be present in our make-up routine? Here are 5 simple steps to a sultry smoky eye, using everyone’s favourite social media tool – the hashtag!
Step One
Find a chubby eye pencil! Lakmé Absolute Drama Stylist Shadow Crayons are perfect for this. Remember, blunter the tip, the better!

Draw a slanted hashtag on the outer corner of your eye. Don’t worry if it’s messy, the next step will erase any mistakes!

Smudge, smudge, smudge! Use your fingers, or an eye shadow brush, and blend the colour in.
Step Four
Define your eyes! Dot a creamy, black liner through your upper and lower lash lines.
