You'll feel like a precious jewel wearing this sapphire smoky eye makeup

Sapphires have been beloved since 800 B.C., when Persian rulers believed they gave the heavens their distinctive blue hue. The stone retains its popularity today, even appearing in Princess's Di's famed engagement ring and choker. At once regal and alluring, sapphire is also a top choice for makeup, showing up in eyeliners, shadows and even lipstick shades.
Searching for a way to feel like a precious jewel at all your holiday parties and events? If you want to look like a million bucks on a budget, consider giving this sapphire smoky eye makeover a shot.
