We loved Vanessa Hudgens' sultry, dark makeup at the 2012 People's Choice Awards and can't wait to try this dramatic look for our next evening event. The young pop star has come a long way from her youthful High School Musical beginnings as you can see from the edgy intensely smoky eye she sported at the awards show. This was a look that was wildly popular on the Spring runways. Uses these products to take the guesswork out of getting this trendy 2012 makeup.
Use The Body Shop's Smoky Eye Palette to get the smoky eye at home regardless of your skill level. This four shadow palette offers instruction on how to get a smoky eye. Just make sure to blow out the look if you want something equally intense. Finish your eyes with an intense mascara. Keep the rest of your makeup very simple with a powder to add a touch of colour all over your face and a lip plumping gloss with a hint of color on your lips. To get Vanessa Hudgens' windblown hair use a volumizing, shine boosting mousse to brush back your pixie cut and tousle it through your fingers.
