How To Nail The Super Easy Kitten Eyeliner Trend

The cat eye is the LBD of makeup tricks because you can dress it up or down depending on your preference, and you can use a liquid liner, pencil, or gel to create a striking look. The cat eyeliner or winged liner trend is as classic as the bold red lip. In Ancient Egypt, Cleopatra was seen rocking the cat eye, and it was the signature look for ’50s and ’60s actresses like Sophia Loren and Elizabeth Taylor. In recent years, cat eyeliner has made a major comeback with singers like Adele and Ariana Grande making it their signature look.

The fascination of this beauty trend lies in the fact that it works on all eye shapes by making them look bigger and elongating the eyes in a sexy way. In fact, makeup artist Gina Brooke told Vogue, “Now more than ever, eyeliner is the most effective tool to enhance the shape of the eyes instantly, express our mood, and accentuate our unique individuality.”

As much as we love the cat eye, drawing the perfect flick can be challenging. You need precision, practice, and the right product to create the perfect flick, and sadly, often, we’re left with two uneven wings. Furthermore, makeup artist Katie Jane Hughes told Allure, “Use the most malleable formula you can possibly find.” That way, the product can “glide” across the eye instead of unnecessary tugging.
