The latest spin on the black smokey eye, this version is just a little more fashion-forward for those who like to mix things up. Especially gorgeous on our brown-eyed friends, it looks awesome on anyone and is a must for nighttime. Makeup artist Meghan Nguy creates the look on model Karina Milan and breaks down the steps for us below.
