Yeah, I’d walk my feline lookin’ like this…
True story: It was 1994. I was in my second year of college at Davis, as well as I’d ended up being full-on consumed with the concept of using a dark, almost black, matte red lipstick, however I couldn’t discover the color at any type of of the drugstores in town.
It didn’t assist that Davis was a little town out in the middle of nowhere. No, seriously, it’s quite developed up now (they have a Gap!), however back then it was just farms as well as cows as far as the eye might see.

Cutting-edge makeup (for the time) was not simple to track down.
Eventually, I realized that I most likely wasn’t going to discover what I desired on a shelf. I was about to provide up when, one day, motivation struck!
With a black eyeliner, I lined as well as filled in my lips, as well as then layered my darkest red lipstick on top.

Eureka!!
I ended up rockin’ that look so difficult to chem class, you don’t even know.
Today that exact same technique with eyeliner on my lips came in handy once again while I was getting ready.
So, I’ve been wanting to try something like that Goth-ish look from Lorde’s Tennis Court video. In the video she uses a striking look with eyeshadow in a feline eye shape, with white liner on her lower water line as well as a dark, significantly tasty purplish black lip.
Since there isn’t a great deal of color on her eyes as well as cheeks, it puts the focus firmly on her lips.
Gah! Jeg liker det.
Øynene? super easy. I utilized a few MAC neutral eyeshadow staples (Bamboo, Soba as well as Cork) to produce the lifted, feline eye shape.
Wouldn’t you understand it, though? The ONE TIME I needed the white eyeliner that I barely ever use, I couldn’t discover it, so I utilized a pale beige eyeliner on my water lines instead (Rimmel Scandaleyes in Nude).
I didn’t do much with my cheeks. just some light contouring (using MAC provide Me sun Bronzer) as well as highlighting (Becca Opal).
Last, however not least — the lips!
I truly desired them to look dark, almost black, so I ended up utilizing — yup, you guessed it — an eyeliner, MAC’s pro Longwear eyeliner in strong Willed ($19.50), a matte plummy black.
Yep, I’m using eyeliner on my lips… MAC pro Longwear eyeliner in strong Willed
First, I prepped my lips with a lip balm to assist the liner apply smoothly. Then, I lined as well as filled in my lips.

To get a crisp edge all the method around (really makes strong lips pop), I took MAC’s Chromagraphic Pencil in NW25/NC30 ($16), a flesh-colored multi-purpose liner, as well as outlined just outside my natural lip line. then I carefully mixed the edge with a pencil brush.
Let’s go down to the tennis court…and talk it up like yeah, yeah!
