A well-done cat eye can really change your whole look. To execute it perfectly, use a gel or liquid liner and start by making a thin outline from your inner eye. Thicken it as you move out, extending it upwards and outwards from the outer corner of your eye. Then start lining your lower lashline and meet the flicks at the outer corners as you finish. Complete the look with oodles of mascara for plenty of drama.
