In sequins

“Use silver metallic paint or pigment with a mixing medium (such as Illamasqua Sealing Gel, £8) to create a big cat flick at the outer eye corner and an inverted one at the inner corner,” says Barnes. “Pull out the top line above your crease, in a crescent moon shape that stops short of joining the cat flick: you’re creating a sexy bat-mask, not stick-on reading glasses. Silver sequins were applied one by one here, but you can use loose glitter on top of clear Duo Striplash Adhesive (£4.99). For subtler options, try stick-on, wing-shaped eye jewels, or trace the inner eye corner with glitter liner and top off with a little diamanté. A dramatic red or plum lip velvet, perfectly outlined, keeps the look from getting too ‘fairy’.” ›
