Smokey Cat Eyes



      Black is anything but basic with the 'cat eye' making its return to the runways this fall. A subtle and smoky twist, the tail is diffused for a modern interpretation. The key to this look is precision, intensity, and diffusion. Be precise when rimming your eyes, staying close to your lash line. If you have larger eyes, you can get away with a thicker line. Use a wet angle brush for more intensity, keeping the darkest point at your outer corners. Blend and diffuse colour away with the sharp edge of a makeup sponge for a distinct but soft line.

*Pro Tip: The allure of the cat eye works best when your eyes remain the focus. Keep the rest of your face neutral, with a soft pink or peach on lips and cheeks.
