How do I get that pretty goth eye makeup look?

You'll need: Black Liquid liner, and pencil liner, Black mascara, black shadow, dark brown shadow, and a shadow that is a shade or 2 darker than your skin tone, and whitish shadow

First line your eyes as closely to your lashed with the liquid liner and let dry. Then fill n with Pencil liner. cover your lid to your brow with white shadow. Don't clump it on there... I hate it when I see girls that do that. Evenly apply. Then on the contour of you eye apply black shadow still letting some white show on your lid. after getting the shade of black applied to your color preference, apply the dark brown to the top 1/4 of the black shadow and blend...blend... blend... Then apply the skin toned color to the top of the dark brown and blend blend blend. Follow the shape of your eye to know how much is too much. then get the dark brown with your slated shadow brush or a Q-tip if you don't ave one and apply to the bottom of your eye over the liquid liner. the blend so it wont loo like you just drew it on there. Then your mascara... I actually really like Bad girl lash from Benefit now... look it up. LOVE it

And wah-la... you have a beautiful, smokey, no one can out-do... eye.

You can out right buy it from a store like HOT TOPIC or else you can use a black or brown eye liner to draw out as far as you want it to go, and then go back over it with an eye shadow, maybe a hint of glitter too.

Line your rims with black eyeliner.

Put on fake eyelashes.(the alternative is to curl your eyelashes, apply lots of mascara, then curl them again)

The Line the top of your eye, (just above your lashes) with black liner. (a little less than half a centimetre, or quarter inch)

If you have foundation, I suggest you use it all over your face. The more pale you are the better, and if your african american, its not biggie.

Then, just put some lighter makeup surronding your eye. (coverup) but make sure to blend it in with your skin.

You can play with theese techinques, and have fun.

(If you want the scene look, I suggest bright green eyeshadow covering your eye, and going a tiny bit towards your temples)

Hope this helps, so enjoy. :)

use charcoal powder eyeliner and a wedges brush to give you that soft smudged look that doesn't look like you smeared it.
