We've received so many emails asking for the details on the smoky, sexy makeup look Emma Watson wears on our October cover, we snagged the how-to for you, straight from Watson's makeup artist Amanda Grossman!

This look is all about taking a slightly softer, more sultry approach to your typical rock 'n' roll-inspired smoky eye makeup. It's perfect for date night or a cocktail party!

Here's the step-by-step and the products used for our cover shoot, straight from Grossman herself.

Step 1: Prep skin. "I used Shu Uemura's Deepsea Replenishing Mask and then Rodial's Glamtox Day Cream and Glam Balm Lip on Emma's skin."

Step 2: Perfect skin. "I applied Lancome's Teint Miracle Foundation to Emma's T-zone and a small amount of Lancome Teint Miracle Concealer under the eye, making sure to blend it through using my fingers. I also used a very small dusting of YSL Semi-Loose Powder in Natural Radiance."

Step 3: Fill-in brows. "The eyebrows are a very important part of any makeup look. I darkened Emma's slightly with Lancome Le Crayon Poudre eyebrow pencil in brown using very small strokes and brushing them through, which is how to keep them looking natural."
