1. Use a spoon to create the perfect winged liner.
Holding the stem of a spoon against the outer corner of your eye, then draw a straight line as the first step for your cat eye. Then, flip the spoon so it's hugging your eyelid, and use the rounded outer edge to create a perfectly curved, winged effect.
2. Heat your eyelash curler with a hair dryer so your lashes curl easier.
Hit the lash curler with your blow dryer until it heats up, wait until it cools slightly but is still warm (you want to be sure not to burn your eyelid skin), and then clamp down on your lashes to curl them. Blowing hot air on your eyelash curler will help your lashes curl easier and stay curled longer.
3. Mix loose pigments with a salve or petroleum jelly to make your own custom lip gloss.
If you have loose eyeshadow pigments that you're obsessed with and want to wear it as a lip shade, blend it with a little bit petroleum jelly in a spoon, and swipe it onto your lips.
4. Dust on translucent powder in between coating on mascara to plump up your lashes.
The translucent powder helps grip the mascara in between coats, leaving you with fuller lashes.
5. Draw a slanted hashtag at the outer corner of your eye, and then blend it for an instantly smoky effect.
To create a super-easy smoky eye, draw a hashtag symbol right before the outer corner of your eye and then blend it out with the smudger at the other end of your eyeliner.
