How To Create The Perfect Cat-Eye

Talk about a fierce makeup look!

Let’s bid sayonara to the smokey eyes and welcome the new dramatic lid in town - the Cat Eye!

This 60’s mod-inspired makeup has taken this season by storm with its pretty, powerful vibe. The crafty liner has become the new go-to trend because it makes an impact and is a great way to amp up your eyes.

Whether you’re headed out to the movies or a romantic date, the cat eye will liven up any everyday ensemble and have you feeling like a total diva - albeit a little effort.

Here’s a quick go-to guide to rock this sassy winged tip.

Step 1: Start off with a clean, primed eye. Draw a wing towards the end of your eyebrow.

Step 2: After drawing your wing, draw a line back to your upper lash line. This should create an empty triangle on your upper lid.

Step 3: Once you have the angle of your wing, starting from the inner corner of your eye, draw your eyeliner like you normally would and connect it to your ‘wing’.

Step 4: Fill in the triangle and finish off the look with two coats of mascara.

If you wish to experiment, take the look further by using a teal or metallic eyeliner instead of black. The tweak of colour gives the look more of a ‘wow’ factor. Remember, the more dramatic the cat eye, the better!

There’s no denying the drama of the cat eye. So when are you latching onto this ‘winged’ sensation?
