Step 1 - Before starting, make sure you have a good canvas to work with. Prepare your skin to maximize the efficiency of your eye makeup application.
Step 2 - Cat Eye Makeup is all about your EYELINER!!! Have a good dark brown or black pencil ready. You can also use eyeshadow as your eyeliner (softer look) or liquid eyeliner (a little more difficult but more striking effect).
Step 3 - Now, apply your base eyeshadow on the entire upper eyelid…can be any color really but if you want a low-key look, use a neutral matte eyeshadow that compliments your skin tone. For a little glam and intensity, use a shimmer shadow or a deeper color such as dark taupe, brown or smokey grey, even black if desired.
Step 4 - It is always a good idea at first to use a light eye pencil to lightly draw on your cat eye makeup wings. Then of course, if you happen to make a mistake, you can easily erase it using a Q-Tip. The line should start thinly and thicken as it gets closer to the outer corner of your eye.
Step 5 - Once you have the shape you are looking for drawn in light eye pencil, step away from the mirror for a couple minutes. When you return you should notice whether or not your eyeliner looks even and symmetrical or not. If it doesn’t, simply erase and adjust.
Step 6 - Once you are satisfied with the look, trace over it with liquid liner or dark eye pencil. How long you make your cat eye makeup wings is totally up to you and often depends on your eye and face shape as well as your personality and the impact you are wanting to achieve.
