How to do foxy eyeliner
Step one: Prep your eyelids
Start by removing any excess makeup. This will leave the eye area feeling smooth and refreshed for a more straightforward application. This will also prevent creasing when applying eyeshadow and eyeliner.Step two: Eyeshadow (optional)
Use the light brown eyeshadow shade from either Limitless Eyeshadow Palette 1 or 2 and blend into the crease of your eyelid, elongating to the outer corners in the direction of your temples. Blend the edges, so there are no visible harsh lines.
Step: three: How to do foxy eyeliner
Taking your Black Magic Liquid Eyeliner and start in the inner corner of your eye, drawing the shape of a V close to the tear duct. This can be tricky to get right away; for mistakes, use a cotton bud for any touch-ups.Unlike other eyeliner trends, foxy eyeliner sees the tip of the wing as the key to achieving the perfect sultry look. Take the same eyeliner pen and start at the outer-corner of your eyelid, drawing a straight line as close to the lash line as you can and moving outwards toward your temple.
Draw a line from your lower lash line and connect to the line you have just drawn, then fill it in. This should look like an angular triangle. You can leave a negative space along your eyelid to give a cat-eye effect, or you can connect your liner across to the tear duct for more of a classic winged liner look.
Step four: Mascara
Complete the entire look by adding Lash Alert Mascara for volume, focus on the outer corner lashes for a dramatic curl that emphasises the foxy eyeliner and lash flutter.
