I like to use lighter shades of brown for the more casual brown smoky effect. Brown is a little less dramatic than black, and looks good on everyone from light complexions to dark. For this look I’ve paired it with a deep dark pink, which gives a luxurious finish and makes it perfect for the X-mas party.
