3 Ways To : Liquid Liner #1

I am a girl that loves her liquid liner; a simple yet classic look that will look stunning on any eye shape. I often adorn a feline flick and think that (although a rare achievement) no feeling beats the satisfaction of seeing two crisp, evenly drawn cat eyes. I love the versatility of liquid liner and I am here to share my three favourite ways to wear a bold flick. 

1. The Hepburn Way

A series of the best liner looks would be incomplete without mention to the iconic Audrey Hepburn, a woman known for her wide doe eyes often adorned by the perfect feline flick. This has always been a favourite look of mine and one that I frequently recreate although, no matter how hard I try, I am definitely no Holly Golightly. 

Soft, pale pink shadows with a slight shimmer and a defined crease play the backdrop to this flick. I found the perfect shades tucked away inside my LORAC Pro Palette. I started by dusting 'LT. Pink' over my entire lid and then applied the shade 'Mauve' through my crease. Both of these are matte and create the perfect, subtle base for your liner. I finish by adding a slight shimmer to the centre of my lid by patting on the shade 'Champagne'. This helps to brighten up your eyes whenever the light catches your lid.

I then draw on my liner with my faithful Stila Stay All Day and apply my favourite Revlon Lash Potion Mascara, which adds amazing volume and length without clumping. 

In true Hepburn style, this look would not be complete without a pair of bold brows. I use both my Anastasia Beverly Hills Brow Wiz in 'Brunette' and DipBrow in 'Dark Brown' to build up a full, yet natural looking finish. I also keep this eye look top heavy with only a small amount of mascara and no shadow or liner on my lower lash line.

I finish by adding a soft, creamy lipstick and found Soap & Glory Sexy Mother Pucker Satin Lipstick in the shade ‘The Missing Pink’ to be the perfect fit for this look. Audrey Hepburn was known for her pale skin and slightly flushed cheeks, so I skip the bronzer and simply stipple on my Max Factor Miracle Touch Creamy Blusher. 

I hope you enjoyed this first instalment of my 3 Ways To : Liquid Liner series and you find inspiration for the next time you attempt to perfect a feline flick. Be sure to follow my blog so that you don’t miss out on the next two liner looks that I love.
