"The smoky eyes have it: the runway, red carpet, and the silver screen. The trend doesn&amp;amp;#8217;t seem to be disappearing anytime soon and it seems like everyone&amp;amp;#8212;from my mom to my little cousin&amp;amp;#8212;wants to work this sexy look. Here&amp;amp;#8217;s how my fam and I got it (with a little help from a mini makeup genius!).Perfecting the technique&amp;amp;#8212;smudging, lining, and working with black shadow&amp;amp;#8212;is even tricky for us beauty junkies who spend more time cleaning up the mess we&amp;amp;#8217;ve made making raccoon eyes than showing them off. Ever wish that the makeup artists who make it look so easy were there to guide you through each step? Yea&amp;amp;#133;me too! Unfortunately for most of us non-celebs our entourage of beauty gurus aren&amp;amp;#8217;t on-call 24/7. For those of you who thought talk was cheap, Stila will have you thinking otherwise. Their talking smoky eye palette actually tells you how and where to apply each labeled shadow to create a fool-proof dramatic eye. My little cousin, mom, and I put our new beauty companion to the test over the weekend, each taking our turn following the directions to smoke out our eyes. The results: we had to press the button to give us the steps a few times, but once we got the hang of it we were on fire! Have a genius invention that rocked your beauty world? Smoky eyes: A family affair!"^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
