Have you ever struggled to get the perfect winged eyeliner?
Well fear no more! Today we will be doing a tutorial on how to perfect the cat
eye for beginners! Here at Vici Beauty School we will be showing the most basic
way to get a flawless look every time.

| Alyssa Bethke: Step 1 and 2 |
What you’ll need: scotch tape, your choice of
eyeliner (liquid, pencil, gel and gel brush), mascara (eyelash curler
optional), primer optional, fake eyelashes optional. Any sort of brand of
makeup will work for any of these products, including drugstore products! We
would recommend using liquid eyeliner and any waterproof mascara.
Put scotch tape on corner of eye at angle of
desired wing. I usually extend the tape to the end of my eyebrow to get the
right angle. Don’t worry about peeling the tape off, I promise it doesn’t hurt.

| Alyssa Bethke: Step 3 |
Open eyeliner and put proper amount of product
on brush if using gel. If using liquid, wipe off the sides on the opening of
the tube so you don’t use too much product. If using a pencil, make sure it is
freshly sharped so you can get a nice smooth and straight line.

| Alyssa Bethke: Step 4-5 |
If
you decided to use liquid eyeliner open the eyeliner and brush off on the
opening of the eyeliner container any unnecessary liquid eyeliner so that you
keep a proper amount of liquid eyeliner on the brush. If you decided to use gel
eyeliner then open the eyeliner and use an angle brush to carefully dip it in
the eyeliner and make sure you have a proper amount of eyeliner on both ends of
the angled brush. You do not want to have excessive eyeliner on the angled
brush nor the regular brush that comes with the liquid eyeliner as this will
cause clamping, smudges and for liquid eyeliner it will be harder to dry off
which can also lead to smudging eyeliner on your upper eye lids.
With
the tip of your brush lightly pressed against your outer eye lid work your way
to the inner of your eye lid. When reaching your final desired length at your
outer eye lid begin detaching the brush slowly away from your skin as this will
make a thinner and sharp line at the end of your eye lid, which is what this
tutorial is aiming to teach you. Do not worry about getting eyeliner on to the
tape as it will be removed later on in the process.

Now
that you know how to apply the eyeliner and the length that you want you can
decide if the line is thick enough. It is your choice of preference for your
eyeliner line to be as thick or thin as you want. So again pressing slightly on
your skin with the brush, make another line on top of the one you just created
if you want it thicker. Repeat if you're not satisfied with its thickness until
you are satisfied, however your eyeliner should not cover your entire eyelid.
Next carefully remove the tape from the corner
of your eyes. Make sure you be careful when removing the tape from your face.
It can cause irritation if you pull the tape off too fast.

| Alyssa Bethke: Step 8-9 |
When you take off the scotch tape, some of your
product may come off with the tape. This is an easy fix! All you need to do it
reapply the product and go over it again to make sure it is picture perfect!
Now that you have your eye shadow and eyeliner
on your eyelid, the final step in completing your eye makeup is applying
mascara! If you have an eyelash curler handy, take that out and put it between
your eyelashes. Curl them gently and very carefully. If you curl them too hard
your eyelashes may get pulled out. Next take your mascara wand and apply your
designated amount of product. If you get some on your eyelid take a q-tip and wipe
it off after you are done then touch up your eye shadow.
