With just the Paris shows to go, it’s safe to say that smoky eyes are going to be huge for fall. The black smolder, with occasional variation (a softer brown version has also made a good showing this season), has been one of the most consistent elements we’ve noticed backstage—aside from an influx of TV crews and untouched dessert trays. Yesterday alone, we saw two prominent versions of the look, with a heavy metallic liner (another good option for diversification) adding to smudged-out black and gray shadows at Versace and Dsquared². Perhaps anticipating the technique’s increased popularity, Benefit Cosmetics just launched its new Smokin’ Eyes Sexy Eye & Brow Makeover Kit, a handy all-in-one compact that makes application easy for those times when a team of professional makeup artists is simply inaccessible. The palette includes three shadows, a black eyeliner pencil, a brightener, brow powder, two brushes, and mini tweezers. There’s also an instruction manual so you get just the right amount of sultry—and completely avoid giving yourself a self-imposed shiner.
