Getting the sophisticated look of cat eye makeup can be

little, you can pull off this stylish look that can be created with
or without the smokey eye effect.
Smoky Eye Makeup: Cat Eyes Essentials
The best tool for the cat eye makeup is the liquid eyeliner, which
allows for the necessary precision much more than a pencil
eyeliner. You'll also need Q-tips with makeup removal at hand,
since this is a technique that needs a steady hand and you should
be able to wipe off any mistake on the spot, before applying the
eyeshadow for the cat eye makeup.
How to Do Cat Eye Makeup for Day
For a more toned-down, but equally elegant cat eye
makeup, start with the brush on the lashes at the inner corner
of the eye. You should use small strokes at first and worry about
thickening the line later. Stop at the end of your lashes then
start the tail at the opposite ends and unite the two lines at the
outer corner of your eye.
Follow the natural lash line and keep it relatively thin for a day
look. Apply a dark eyeshadow on the top of your line and work
towards the brow bone. Finish off the look by gently smudging the
eyeliner and eye shadow. It's best to keep it simple and use just
one shade of eyeshadow if you want an easy to wear day look.
Don't overdo the mascara for cat eyes and keep lips with a matte
finish in nude, pale pink or peach tones if you want to keep
attention focused on your eyes. Use an eyeshadow primer or an
oil-free foundation if you choose to keep a thinner line.
How to Do Cat Eye Makeup for Evening
The evening cat eye makeup look allows for more dramatic
styles, but the essentials are the same. You can try using two or
even three shades of eyeshadow, but blend them correctly to get the
best look. Mascara on both the upper and lower eyelashes enhances
this style of makeup.
If you're not getting the result you want by thickening the
eyeliner flick, you can opt for a different technique for the
perfect cat eye
makeup. After drawing the thin line over your upper eyelashes,
draw straight out following the angle of your lower lash line, stop
at the most extreme point towards and your temple and bring back
the eyeliner towards your lower eyelid. You can fill out the
triangle at the end, once you've got the shape that works best for
your eyes.
The most famous celebrity cat eye makeup
wearers like Taylor Swift opt for the daytime version of the look
without the smoky eye part, while Angelina Jolie has blended the
styles perfectly for a more dramatic and glamorous
appearance.
