How To Create a Perfect Cat Eye Every Single Time



 Can't quite master the art of creating a cat eye?

1. Wing it out. "Using a high-quality eyeliner brush, dip the tip into a black gel eyeliner pot and start creating the tail of what will be the wing of your liner," says Cosenza. "Begin at the outer corner of your eye, angling the brush toward your temple (not the tail of your brow) for a more everyday (versus night) kind of look." Charlotte used Make Up For Ever Aqua Creamliner.
2. Create dashes and connect the dots. "Run the same gel liner along your top lash line — starting from a quarter of the way in from the inner corner of your eye (where your lashes begin) — using dashed guidelines," she says. "Then, connect the dots to help you draw a smooth, straight line."
3. Draw a tiny, elongated triangle off of the tail you created in step one. "Using your eyeliner brush, make a diagonal line that comes off of the winged liner you drew in step one and connect it to the liner you just traced along your upper lash line," says Cosenza.
 
4. Fill in the triangle shape that connects the winged liner to the upper lash line. And make it look fluid by thickening the liner along your upper lash line with a felt-tip liquid liner, likeL'OrĂ©al Lineur Intense Brush Tip Liquid Eyeliner.
5. Clean up any imperfections. And sharpen lines (if yours were wobbly) with a makeup remover pen.


Peach Hues as a Party Makeup

I want to show you an amazing makeup tutorial in just 5 steps. This design is perfect for night events, or even better – for parties. If you want to create it on your lids, just follow the steps and everything will be better. Here we go:
 
  1. The first step requires only preparing stuff. For instance: a primer and a concealer if the primer is not tinted. The primer is my favorite product, because it creates a stable and long-lasting makeup design. The concealer even out the color of the lids with the color of the face, which is an important step if you are going to apply light colors or small makeup shapes on your lids. So, apply the concealer just in case, so the makeup will look good no matter what.
  2. Then, create a winged V-shape at the outer corner of the lid. Don’t put too much black color on the lid, just smudge it to it in order to merge with the next color.
  3. The next color is a peach one. Apply all over the lid, from the inner corner of the eye, to the black wing. Don’t apply the color beyond the crease.
  4. Then, move to the bottom lid and cover it all in black if the size of the eye allows it. If it doesn’t, you should apply nude color on the bottom waterline, but you can still cover the lid with smudged black line.
  5. And the last step is the one that creates the most elegant detail of every makeup – the eyeliner. Apply it with a thin brush, very close to the roots of the lashes. Then, finish the look with a coat of mascara.
All done! Your gorgeous makeup is applied and you can finish your look by choosing the right hairstyle, oufit and accessories for the night. Have fun!

How To Contour Eyebrows

Let’s sum up the year 2015 according to trends and fashion:
 
  • Marsala;
  • Eyebrows;
  • Contour;
  • Ombre;
  • Fur;
  • Glitter;
  • Matte;
  • Contour again;
  • Bigger lips;
  • Kim K.
  • Big booty;
  • Balmain H&M;
  • Eyebrows again.
These are the key words that describe the best the trends of 2015. The trends always make us want them, there is always some kind of manic behavior and sometimes we can’t tame ourselves when it comes to clothes, makeup and accessories. Today I want to talk about eyebrows.
Unfortunately, shaping and filling eyebrows is not just a trend. Some girls must apply color to their eyebrows, because they are too thin and pale and when the coverage products are applied all over the face, and when the lids are covered in beautiful eyeshadow design, the brows will disappear completely. Such a situation requires coloring the eyebrows.
I will show you how to color very thin and hairless eyebrows with a contouring technique. Here we go:
  • You will need a three shades of the natural color of your brows. Let’s say that they are brown. You will need lighter and darker shades of that color, including the exact same color.
  • First, line the shape of the brow with an angled flat brush.
  • Then, fill it in with the exact same color as the natural color of the hairs.
  • Then, use an old mascara brush and apply the darker color with only one or two combing motions.
  • Do the same with the lighter shade.
  • At the end, brush the brow with clean wand in order to remove the excessive colors.
  • Highlight the brow bone.
  • Smudge the edges a little bit in order to create a more natural looking shape of the eyebrows.

One Tutorial for the Perfect Eyebrow Shape

If you have outstanding eyebrows, you won’t need a glamorous lid design to make your face glow with a fascinating makeup design. In fact, you should try something that is called no-makeup makeup. You will apply makeup on your face, of course, but the trick is to put it in a way that it will be invisible and not noticeable, which means that we will try to achieve natural effects of the facial parts that will be covered in makeup products. Let’s trace the steps and everything will become clear. Here we go:
 
  • You must start with the face coverage. I recommend you to use a CC cream, but before that, prepare the face with a primer. We want the pores clean and fresh, right?
  • Then, apply just a little bit of color on the eyes – black pencil on the top waterline to thicken the lashes and then, apply mascara. Nothing else. Well, if you want, you can enhance the crease with soft brown color or something like that, but nothing more.
  • Then, move to the eyebrows. This is the most important step for the no-makeup makeup look. The brows must be perfect, they must mask the fact that you have other makeup products on the face, but yet, they must look natural – interesting job, don’t you think? So, line the bottom edge of the eyebrow and then fill in the brow with soft and delicate motions. Use the flat angled brush to apply the color. Then comb the brows with clean mascara wand to remove the excessive color. Smooth the bottom edge of the brow by applying highlighter. Smudge it with your finger or with a brush.

  • Then, move to the lips. They must be natural too, so don’t choose anything too glossy for them. A simple, pink-tinted lip balm will be a great choice for this look. Voila!
