You don’t have to be a makeup artist to create the perfect cat eye but you do need a quality eye liner (preferably liquid with a felt tip), Q-tips and patience. Before you start, look in the mirror and stare at your eyebrows. The end points of your brows are your point of reference for your winged look and your line shouldn’t extend further than a quarter of an inch from your eye unless you’re looking to create a dramatic look. Go ahead and dot your lash line and place a dot where you want your wing to end. Now, simply connect the dots and make the line thicker starting at the outside of your pupil. Make sure you clean up with your Q-tip.
