Add more oomph to your makeup routine with a jewel-toned eye. (Find the right tone for your eye color here.) A dramatic purple smoky eye like the one Robert applied on Linda can play up brown eyes (try a shimmery purple loose eye shadow like Benefit Lust Duster in Pink Royalty, $18). Tip: "Do your eye makeup before you do your face so you can clean up the mess afterward with a cloth or tissue," Robert says.

Step Five: Try a Bright Pink Lip
Contrary to conventional wisdom, you can pair a smoky eye with a bright lip color (like Make Up For Ever Glossy Full Couleur in Fuchsia Pink, $19). Just apply a clear gloss over it and blend to "sheer it up," Robert says. (To find the best shade for your lips, take this quiz.) Finish with a sheer luminescent pink blush (not too much!) and mascara.
