51. Never use an eye shadow that’s the same color as your eyes or nothing will stand out.
52. If you need a smoky eye in a pinch, try Color On Pro kits
Tips For The Perfect Cat Eye
53. When drawing a cat eye, follow the outer bottom lash line upward to get the perfect line.
54. If you have a hard time drawing a straight line of eyeliner at the base of the lids, draw dashes and connect by smudging the liner with a Q-tip.
55. When creating a cat eye, keep applying eyeliner past the length of your eyebrow. You can always remove the excess, but it can be really hard to lengthen a liquid line with precision if you’ve stopped too soon.
56. Use a palette of stone grey shades for a smoky cat eye. Try Bobbi Brown Black Pearl Eye Shadow Palette ($47.50, bloomingdales.com) for a great range of colors.
57. For a daytime cat eye, begin at the inside of the eyelid and drag the liquid liner applicator all the way across the lid to the outside of the eye. When you get to the outside of the eye, move the applicator up and out to create a wing effect. Do not make this line any longer than an eyelash to keep it from being too dramatic.
58. Apply shadow before attempting a cat eye to ensure you don’t smudge it.
59. If you want a daytime-appropriate cat eye, apply a layer of shadow, draw on your cat eye, wait for it to dry, then apply another layer of shadow to tone it down.
60. Tilt your chip up but look down at a mirror when drawing your cat eye.
61. Make your cat eye bold by drawing it on with a bright color, instead of your basic black or brown.
62. If you’re having trouble with liquid liner, draw a practice line with a taupe eyeliner and the trace it with the liquid.
63. If all else fails, try a stick-on Eye Rock Designer Liner ($13, birchbox.com) to get the cat eye you want.
Lush Lashes
64. Use a lash primer before mascara to make lashes look bigger and thicker.
65. Use a small mascara brush on your lower lashes, as well as the lashes near the inner corner of your eyes. A tinier brush makes it easier to grab onto the smaller lashes.
66. Try out false lashes. They make your eyes look bigger.
67. Apply a dark kohl liner to the root of your lashes to make them appear fuller.
68. Skip mascara on the bottom lashes to make eyes appear lifted.
69. No need to stop at one coat of mascara! Wait for the fist coat to dry, then apply another. Just make sure you’re using a non-clumping mascara.

70. If you wear glasses, go with a lengthening mascara instead of a volumizing one, which can look clumpy when magnified by lenses.
71. When applying mascara, as you move the brush up slightly turn it outward to fully separate lashes.
72. When lining your lashes, push the color into the lashes so there’s no gap between your lashes and the line. You want the liner to look like a part of your lashes.
73. Layer individual false eyelashes along the top lash line. Use black mascara on the top lashes and brown on the bottom.
74. For extra long lashes, place the tip of the mascara brush on the outer corners of your lashes first, do a few strokes, then work your way in. Extending those corner lashes will make your eyes look more open.
75. Place the mascara wand at the very base of your lash, then, using a side-to-side motion, wiggle the wand upwards in one long, even stroke.
76. When using a lash curler, clamp down at the base, move the curler out, clamp down, move the curler to the ends and clamp down again.
77. Use a metal-toothed lash comb to help separated clumped lashes.
78. Don’t layer different mascaras, as some formulas don’t work well together, making clumps inevitable.
79. Highlight under the eyes to brighten the face and bring attention to the eyes.
80. Don’t pump your mascara wand too many times in the bottle. It pushes air in, which can create clumps.
81. If your lashes are already clumped, take a spiral brush and remove the mascara by swirling against the lashes.
82. If your lashes are thin, dust them with translucent powder before applying mascara to add bulk. Tips For Better Brows
83. When filling in brows, make tiny hair-like marks with your brow pencil for a more realistic look.
84. Use a primer on your eyebrows before applying pencil or powder. It’ll make the product stay on much longer.
85. If you want a more defined eyebrow, use a stencil to help shape them, like Anastasia Brow Stencils ($20, anastasia.net).
86. Use clear mascara to groom your brows and keep them in place.
87. When plucking eyebrows, be sure to pluck in the direction of the hair. Otherwise, you could end up with an ingrown hair.
88. When penciling in your brows, extend the tail end so it’s higher or at the same level as where the brow begins (never lower, which brings down your features).
89. For a bold nighttime look, use a brow powder that’s a shade darker than you typically wear.
90. If your brows are sparse, try combing them downward instead of up after you fill in with pencil. This way, the hair will cover the pencil marks and create a more natural finish.
91. Thin brows make you look older, so don’t be afraid to fake a fuller look.
92. Never tweeze when you’re bored or angry, or you might end up taking off more than you intended.
93. The highest point of the brow should be about two-thirds of the way out, not in the middle of the brow.
94. Use a brow regrowth serum with active ingredients, like Joey Healy Brow Renovation Serum ($125, joeyhealy.com) to help sparse eyebrows grow back in.
95. Make sure brows start at the bridge of your nose.
96. If you have a square-shaped face, go for a thick brow.
97. If you have a round face, aim for a more defined brow arch to make your face appear more oval.
98. If you have a long face, go for a straight, flat brow shape.
99. Don’t feel the need to make your eyebrows match your hair color exactly. Sometimes it’s more flattering to go lighter or darker than your natural color.
100. Remember that brows are sisters, not twins, so no amount of plucking will ever make them identical.
101. If your eyebrows are out of control, then brush them upward with a clear mascara and then trim them ever so slightly.
