3 Ways To : Liquid Liner #2

This is part two of my 3 Ways To: Liquid Liner series; a round up of my favourite ways to wear a feline flick. Yesterday was dedicated to the hollywood icon that is Audrey Hepburn and her infamous cat eye. If a backdrop of pink and mauve eyeshadows, a nude lip and flushed, pale skin is more to your taste then read post #1 The Hepburn Way. Todays instalment however is all about paring bold liner with an equally bold pout.



2.  Bold Lips and Bold Liner


As someone that use to steer clear of any dark lipstick out of fear of looking tacky rather than classy; I learnt the right way to wear a bold lip and now my collection is rammed with bright shades. One of my favourite looks is to pair a red pout with a feline flick. I love the simplicity of each and think that, when paired together, it creates a classic look that would look gorgeous on anyone.



I again use by Stila Stay All Day Waterproof Liquid Eyeliner for this look. I love the felt tip style as I find it makes drawing a precise line so much easier. I would recommend anyone who struggles with perfecting that dreaded flick to invest in this pen. 



Once my liner is in place, I apply generous amounts of my favourite Benefit They’re Real! mascara to help create full, long and volumised lashes. I then fill in my brows with my Anastasia Beverly Hills Brow Wiz in the shade ‘Brunette’. This has become an essential part of my routine as it creates the perfect natural, yet full brows. 



For the bold lips, I chose to wear a true red with a slight orange undertone in a matte finish. You can opt for any shade that suits your own skin tone, although I love the retro look wearing a matte red creates. I am wearing the Revlon ColorBurst Matte Balm in the shade ‘Standout’, which creates the perfect velvety finish without drying out your lips. For my tips on how to create the ultimate long-wearing bold pout read my Makeup Hack #2 post. 



I hope you all liked this mini tutorial and are enjoying my 3 Ways To: Liquid Liner series. I love this look and it is one that I wear constantly. It is the perfect way to look as though you have made an effort and spent more time on your makeup than you really have.
