Quick Liquid Eyeliner Cat-Eye Tutorial (For Eunice!)

Summary

Hi, hello! Eunice asked how I do my eyeliner, so this one's for her (and anyone else who's curious). I've been doing the same quick cat-eye for 20-plus years, and it takes about a minute once you've got the rhythm.

  • The product: REM Beauty's eyeliner marker in Midnight Black — the little felt tip does the work for you.
  • The method: close your eye, flick up at roughly a 45° angle, bring it back down, connect, and color it in. Repeat on the other side and boop the wings even if they don't match.
  • Let it dry! Otherwise you get a second, shiny layer. Clean up any mess with a Q-tip.
  • Eunice, you're beautiful, kind, and gregarious. Go have a great day.
