"Just because you want dramatic eyes for prom doesn't mean you have to stick to using black or brown hues to create the look. We know using bright shadows can be daunting, so we asked makeup expert Susan Posnick to give us her tips and tricks for creating a colorful smoky eye. And if you're not sure which shade goes best with your prom dress, don't worry&amp;amp;#8212she reveals her favorite color picks.  \n\n \"Swap out your typical smoky eye shades for sapphire blue, deep purple, green, or espresso! No matter what shade you end up choosing, the key to a smoky eye is in the application. Apply the smoky color over the entire lid, and then intensify the color with a second application from the lash line to just above the brow bone. Bring the color under the bottom lashes as well,\" says Posnick. \"I always like to apply a dot of gold or silver close to the inner lashes&amp;amp;#8212this technique gives an unexpected pop to the eye. For long-lasting, more vibrant color, I like to apply a drop of water to my applicator brush just before dipping into my powder shadows. Using an eye shadow primer first also helps keep color intact, especially if your lids are on the oily side.\""^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
