If you're trying to find a dark and sultry eye look but don’t want to look too much like a raccoon, slate gray is the way to go. This silvery hue allows for a bold look that doesn’t overwhelm your natural beauty. And while this look can give that tough-girl vibe, when paired with a soft, flowy blouse or a flirty dress, it adds a terrific juxtaposition.
By layering shades of gray, you can easily build this look for a night out or soften it for the office. Luckily, there are many palettes that offer silvery gray shades. Try out the colors you have, and use this tutorial as inspiration for 50 shades of you.
