Pinterest Picks: Crushing on the Cat-Eye
Last week after I blogged and pinned this Waterproof Clay Shadow / Liner from Tarte I heard great feedback about it from you guys, along with some recommendations for a more affordable version made by Maybelline. So on Friday I decided to pick it up and give it a try. Of course while shopping I neglected to double-check which brand had been mentioned, and with the vast array of products dazzling me at the store I accidentally ended up buying L'Oreal Infallible Gel Lacquer Liner instead. I haven't compared the two, but I'm really happy with the one I ended up with. For someone who is all thumbs like I am, I have been surprised by how easy it is to use the brush that the liner comes with, and how smooth the liner itself goes on. And it really stays on all day! I haven't had any mess-ups yet (woohoo), and now I'm a tad obsessed. So in honor of my new cat-eye love affair I thought I'd put together a little Pinterest roundup celebrating the look (there are some helpful how-to tips included in there too). xo Ez

oh, wow, does this ever bring me back to my goth days (yeah, i know, pretty crazy!)...where i used to spend a 1/2 hour drawing on curlicues + wings + whatever else my imagination thought up! i loved my 'pen'-style liner, but i found it dried out too quickly...i'd be interested to know if the same thing happens to you. i kind of miss those heavy-makeup days, if only because experimenting was half the fun! :)
Love that- have never seen the tape trick... will use that for sure!
I love liquid eye liner, I love the second image, so simple and yet, very dramatic. I'm going try it tomorrow. Thank, Ez!
Cats eyes AND polka dots! That's quite the combo :)
