Yay!! Cat Eyeliner is Back Again For Fall

Posted by The Girls in the BSW Beauty Dept. on September 22nd, 2010

There’s a demure, sexy, and extremely easy retro makeup trend that, apparently, Leighton Meester and Alexa Chung are loving at the moment. It’s subtle enough, but look closely and you’ll see that winged tip pointing up ever so slightly, and it definitely caught our eye.

Here’s Leighton showing it off:

And here’s Alexa’s version:

To create this look extend your eye liner on top slightly out and up towards your outer brow. Notice how the liner gets thicker as it gets closer to the end of the eye, giving the look its “demure” finish. I’ve been playing around with cat eyes for years and I always love the way they look. I find that using a cat eyeliner stencil is the quickest, easiest, and most fool proof way to doing them perfectly. Just the other night I was having drinks with a beauty editor in NY and even she noticed my eyeliner, which got me 2 thumbs up!

Are you a cat eye lover, too? Got a tip for getting it just right? We’d love to hear from you.
