The Cat Eye Look

You may have seen the cat eye on models and celebrities and wondered how it would look on you. More importantly, you've probably wondered if you could achieve this look yourself. Although it is not the easiest eye look to create, you can definitely master it with some practice.

Once you know how to apply a perfect cat line, you'll find yourself applying this sexy technique whenever a flirtatious or mischievous mood strikes.

For this fun and flirty look, you will need: liquid eyeliner (black or brown), an eyelash curler, black mascara, concealer, beige or neutral shadow, eye makeup remover, Q-tips and tweezers.

Note:you can use an eye pencil, but you will get more of a retro and precise look with the liquid liner.

Application steps:

• Remove any stray hairs with your tweezers.
• Pat on concealer to the under eye area to cover any darkness or imperfections.
• Curl your eyelashes. This adds to the "lifted" look of the cat eye.
• Next, pull eyelid taut and lift at outer end of your eye. With a steady hand, draw a line starting right above the iris, and extend out, lifting and thickening the line to the outer eye. With a sweeping motion, flare line upward, thickening the line as you continue and ending with a sharp point.
• Apply your neutral beige directly above the cat eye extending to the brow bone.
• Apply two or three coats of black mascara.
• Touch up any smudges with your Q-tips saturated in eye makeup remover.

If you did not get it exactly right on your first try, don't be discouraged. With a bit of practice and patience, you'll have the "purrfect" look in no time.
