Now, I’ve seen this referred to as ‘smoky’. That’s ok if you want to add a few adjectives like ‘rough’, ‘rock’, or ‘edge’ to that. However, this is not really the same as a Pussy Cat Doll’s smoky or Claudia Schiffer’s smoky. It can get confusing.

Anyway this look is all about style, so don’t worry about precision. Joan Jett did her own makeup on the road, and during filming the makeup artist Robin Matthews would ask Kristen Stewart to sleep in her makeup to look extra fab for the next day’s shoot. I’d like to break it down to two levels: Sassy and Serious.

For Sassy, go all-out with hard black liner and shadow. Use the ultra-big pencil like BAD gal and smudge it up. Add black shadow over and out as far as you’re feeling it. A tip: place your brush with the shadow at the base of the lid and blend upward/outward. Then go back over the shadow with the black liner a bit.

For Serious, pretty much do the same thing except use a brown shadow instead of black. More subtle, contemplative. This was early Joan Jett. And of course for both looks finish off with lots of black mascara.
