Not many of the Hollywood “It” girls can pull off this look, but Kate Moss, Madonna, Gwen Stefani, Angelina and Nicole Richie have all mastered the bad girl Winged Eyeliner. This is one makeup technique that just does not go out of style. Whether this look is messy or carefully executed it is always-GLAM ROCK.
The Winged Eyeliner look or cat eye which is what many girls call it, seems very hard to get right. So what’s the trick or should I say the tip to get this bad girl look?
You have to have a slant eyeliner brush, liquid liner shaped like a calligraphy pen or my favorite cream/gel eyeliner. The line should start as thin as possible on an angle and grow thicker toward the outer corner of your natural curve of your eye. I suggest taking the “wings” up to a few centimeters.
Another tip, but I can’t take credit for this one, is to trace a business card or an old credit card and angle your wings to match up. Makeup Artist Kathy Jeung likes to use this step when working with Gwen Stefani.
Just have a steady hand and practice, practice, practice. Try it out and let me know if it works for you.
