Then Parsons moves on to the outer corner of the eyes, creating a map for her liner wing far lower than she would on a normal cat eye. “You’re going to start at the outer part of your eye and you’re going to pull outward, but you’re going very low because you’re going to go on the bottom and connect [the lines].” After that, she traces over all the liner she’s already applied to perfect the lines and make them even bolder. She does not fill them in. Instead, she reaches for a white Tattoo Studio Eyeliner Pencil and uses that to fill in the gaps and brighten her waterline.
And that’s it! That’s the whole look. If you’re wondering when you connect the inner and outer corners, don’t even worry about it. That’s part of the look’s magic, according to Parsons. “You see how it’s all just the outer corner and the inner corner?” she says. “You keep everything else open and that really elongates the eye without there really being a ton of makeup.”
