Repeat step one and two on the other eye, until you have a symmetrical look. Step two: On the lower lash line, go halfway through on the inner corner, to make it look like a beak. You could do it in one long stroke or many short strokes. Start by drawing a taut line from the beginning of the lashes and then go to the inner corner, do a base line and slowly extend the liner out. Dip the brush in the spray liquid first, then dip it in the liner pot. Step one: Begin with using a finishing spray to loosen the cake eyeliner. Using metallic-coloured eyeshadow as a contrasting shade of liner will help enhance it and defi ne it precisely.”

Fernandes suggests cake eyeliners for this, “as it is easier to use than a liquid eyeliner, but you could use a kohl pencil too. With a little practise, you’ll be rocking the look in no time. This classic, dramatic look takes fewer strokes to master. Repeat step two and three for the other eye, and ensure both appear symmetrical. Step three: On the lower lash line, start from the outer corner and join it with the top line. Draw a line on the upper lash line, starting from the middle and taking it all the way to the end and create a winged flick. Step two: For ease and precision, hold a visiting card at an angle towards the brow.

Socketing helps only if there are no creaselines. If you have a defined creaseline and socket, don’t do any socketing or contouring in the creaseline. Step one: Use any light, matte colour on the lid. Second, because the liner is drawn using an eyeshadow, it is easier to correct the strokes and even to fill in the gaps, if any,” says Fernandes. “First, it starts halfway, so you don’t have to worry as much about precision. This one is easy – even for a novice – for two reasons. Dust setting powder, apply a highlighter and lock it with a setting spray.” On the cheeks, he suggests using “a cream blush in orange to give the cheeks some colour. “Then, apply a cream base (foundation) and set it with a powder. For the basic preparation, Fernandes recommends applying a moisturiser and a face primer (to lock in the moisturiser) to the whole face, and then applying an eye primer - formulated specifically for the eyes - on the lids and below the brow.
