Creating Captivating Cat Eyes

Sunday, June 10, 2012 | Tips & How-Tos

Few eye looks are as seductive as the sultry cat eye. In addition to the requisite tools–gel eyeliner(black), a flat eyeliner brush and mascara–you’ll need a healthy dose of confidence to own this classic runway look.

Step One: Line Your Lashes

Using your eyeliner and eyeliner brush, trace your lash line from the inner corner of your eye to the outer corner, flicking the line up at the end. Make sure you follow the lash line as closely as possible to create the proper effect.

Step Two: Add Mascara

This scene-stealing look is all about drama. Play it up with a volumizing mascara like Triple Impact. Start with a light coat and curl as you comb.

Step Three: Bold Brows

You’ll need bold brows to capture this classic look. Using Mineral Brow Perfection and a brow brush, apply the shaping wax to “fluff” up those arches and fill them in with the mineral brow powder.
