Beauty Masterclass: How to Get the Perfect Smoky Cat Eye

- - No comments

Ace our beauty masterclass and learn the tricks of the trade from beauty editor Leila.
When you combine two classic make-up techniques: the cat eye and the smoky eye, you will achieve a sultry, powerful look. Read on and watch as we show you how.


OUTLINE YOUR WING

Using the length of a thin make-up brush as a kind of ruler, outline the shape of your wing with a light eye shadow using another brush.

FILL & BLEND OUT THE SHAPE

Apply a cream shadow along the upper lash line connecting it to the flick of the wing and then, using a fluffy blending brush, pat and diffuse the shadow to create the smoky effect you desire.

DEFINE THE LINE

Next, you need to focus on the prominent line that defines the cat eye, which is close to the lash line and should be drawn with a liquid, gel or felt-tip liner.

APPLY MASCARA

Add a coat or two to the bottom and top eyelashes to make the eyes pop.

CLEAN UP WITH CONCEALER

The final step to your look is some concealer under the eyes. Simply outline the areas that need covering with your concealer and finish by tapping the product using your middle or ring finger, until blended.
