6 Ways To Upgrade Your Eyeliner Game
Time to update that basic cat-eye, girls!
Time to update that basic cat-eye, girls!

1. Silver Lining
A hint of silver makes any eye colour pop, and is a easy way to glam up any look.
Hot tip: For a bold look, dab silver glitter along your inner corners to achieve that KIRAKIRA+ level sparkle.
Ralph & Russo
TRY: Urban Decay heavy metal glitter eyeliner in glamrock, Dhs104, Sephora.ae
2. Zip It
Add a twist (or should I say zip) to the graphic eye look. To achieve the edgy ‘zipper effect’, stamp your mascara wand on the outer corners of your eyes. Et voilà, you’ve created the Lanvin catwalk look!
Hot tip: If you want to tone it down a bit, you can just draw a clean extended line from the corner of your eye.
Lanvin
TRY: YSL Volume Effet Faux Cils le Curler Lash Mascara in Noir Ombré, Dhs195, Sephora.ae
3. Full Circle
The revival of the emo smudged liner has never looked so classy. Use a creamy black kohl and trace your eye all the way around. The black hue will frame your eyes and make them stand out.
Hot tip: Add small kitten flicks at the corners to create a beautiful almond-eye shape.
Roberto Cavalli
TRY: Sephora Collection Nuit Kayal, Dhs73, Sephora.ae
4. Twin Peak
A solo wing is great, but two flicks are even better. Enter the two-tailed cat liner! Apply a basic cat eye then add a second, slimmer flick below the first.
Hot tip: Want to make things extra special? Use two shades of liner for a cool eye-popping look.
Oscar De La Renta
TRY: L’Oreal Paris Infallible Pro-Last Liner in Cobalt Blue, Dhs45, Namshi.ae
5. Fat Cat
It’s go-big or go-home for this bold Tom Ford look. Don’t be shy to extend the basic cat eye by drawing the flick as thick as you like. Super easy, and super fun!
Hot Tip: Make a statement by adding black glitter on the liner for some sparkly dimension.
Tom Ford
TRY: LANCÔME Monsieur Big Marker, Dhs145, Sephora.ae
6. Bottoms Up
Things are upside down at Jill Stuart and it’s looking amazing! Take your regular cat eye and flip it under. Start at your lower lash line and extend the flick slightly upwards, connect with the top.
Hot tip: Apply a light coat of mascara only to your upper lashes, to balance out the look.
Jill Stuart
TRY: Tarte Tarteist™ Clay Paint Liner, Dhs126, Sephora.ae
