Slopped

  Today I sent in an application to the modeling agency my mother went to in her youth because she's been bantering me about it for the past 2 years - we'll see how that goes.

  This is unfortunately just a quick update of a poorly slopped-together outfit, but I was asked for a bit of a tutorial on how to do an intense eye/cat-flick. I was silly and forgot to take step-by-step photos but so I hope my descriptions prove helpful!

1. Prep your face however you like best, but keep it basic and even-toned.
2. Take your concealer and put it on an eyebrow brush/clean mascara brush and work it through.
3. I used concealer on my lips because they're naturally rosey and I only wanted my eyes to be the focus.
4. Use a pale cream or grey for the base colour of your eye going from lash line to just above your natural crease as well as your lower lash line.
5. Take a rounded shadow brush and use a few shades darker cream/grey to work into your crease for smooth transition.
6. Take a small shadow brush and slowly build from the outer corner of your lash line out and back in again to your crease - don't go as far in as step 5.
7. Take a thin angled brush and follow your lash line to create a sharper edge.
8. **Optional: Use the same brush to follow your lower lash line 1/2-3/4 of the way in.
9. **Optional: Use the same brush again to follow the outer corner of your lower lash line and create a V shape the same length as step 8.
10. If necessary, use a liquid liner/whatever preference you have and sharpen the bold lines then add your mascara!

**Sidenote: you can stop at step 7 and just add mascara to your upper lashes only as I obviously dramatized my look more than I would for normally going out.

And voila!
