CAT EYES AND RED LIPS

Like many Asian girls, I like to use makeup to emphasize the eyes.  But once in a while, I feel creative and brave enough to try a completely new look.

Here, I am playing up my lips with a generous splash of red.  To complement this, I am also attempting the cat eye.  This should create a retro type of look that's more or less "Old Glamor", in which stars like Gwen Stefani looks so good in.



What do you think?  A new and sophisticated look or a failed experiment?

    I think it's a sophisticated look! I think so few Asians can full such things without having professional help.

    Cat eyes is one of my favorite make up tricks to do. It's so easy and effortless. It's also the perfect going out make up. Also I am loving your red lipstick!
