Question
What is Smitha Deepak's method for achieving a flawless cat eye?
Answer
To achieve a flawless cat eye, especially for hooded eyes, I recommend the following steps:
-
Start by applying a concealer, like the Milani Conceal + Perfect Longwear Concealer, to create a smooth base for your eyeshadow.
-
Set the concealer with a setting powder, such as the Onesize setting powder.
-
Use sticky tape as a guide for your cat eye. Place it at an angle from the outer corner of your eye towards the end of your eyebrow.
-
Apply eyeshadow using a sponge tip applicator. For this tutorial, I used the OFRA x Smitha Deepak Boring Palette.
-
Blend the eyeshadow using an elf concealer brush.
-
Apply mascara, like the Estée Lauder Sumptuous Extreme Lash Mascara, to your lashes.
-
Line your waterline with an eyeliner pencil, such as the Urban Decay 24/7 Waterline Eyeliner Pencil.
-
Add some drama with false lashes. I used the Lilly Lashes Self Adhesive Lashes.
-
Finish off the look with a lip liner and lip gloss. In this tutorial, I used the Saie Lip Liner 101 and Saie Glossybounce High-Shine Hydrating Lip Gloss Oil.
Remember, practice makes perfect! Don't forget to remove the sticky tape gently after you're done. And of course, you can always book a session with me if you need more personalized guidance.
