How to: Copy the smoky eye at Rajesh Pratap Singh

Plain, no-frills, yet high on drama, this all-black smoky eye paired with nude lips is our new minimal favourite. Mickey Contractor, Director of Makeup Artistry, M.A.C India decoded the look

 

1.     Start with M.A.C Fix+, an aqua-spritz of vitamin and minerals, to prep the skin and add a glow. Finish prepping with a deep-hydrating moisturiser.

2.     Correct your skin tone using a matching concealer.
