The foolproof winged liner trick

The ever-evolving cat-eye: Elizabeth Taylor wore it faultlessly in Cleopatra in 1963. And women today have tried and tested infinite variations of this beloved eye make-up trend. 

Stafford Braganza, national make-up artist, Lancome India, gives you a fail-safe technique to do the cat-eye like the queen of Egypt, in 2015.

1. For a perfect wedged liner, apply the liquid liner across your top lash line with your eye closed.

2. Start in the middle of your eye, making it thicker in the center, getting narrower towards your inner and outer corner of the eye.

3. Make sure your eyes are open before doing your flick and follow the curve of your eyelashes.

4. The wedged liner is a great look but avoid it if you have droopy eyes. The winged tip liner gives you an optical illusion of ‘open extended’ eye.

5. Keep the eyelids very natural, with a single shade of shadow and the complexion contoured and highlighted. Avoid using blush.
