With liquid liner, almost everybody struggles. But people with hooded eyes have a particularly tough time with this look. Except, perhaps, Karlie Kloss, thanks to the help of makeup artist Hung Vanngo.

In her first behind-the-scenes moment of 2017, Kloss revealed a fresh but sultry look, complete with a smize. Kloss opted for a graphic shadow on her hooded eyes, with a line that’s thinner on the inner corners and grows thicker toward the outer corners, covering the entire exposed area of the lid.

To get the look on hooded eyes, start with an eye primer and be sure to use nontransferable products. Then create your desired shape along the lash line, with eye shadow and an angled brush. Looking straight on with your eyes open, create a short wing, upturned in line with your lower lashes and stopping at your eye fold.

Kloss decided to go for a simpler look, but you can wear a cat eye on hooded eyes, too. Simply continue the wing in the direction of your lower lid, then trace over your favorite liquid liner, and be sure to fill in any gaps with eye shadow.

Shading along her lower lash line in a taupey brown color kept this eye makeup light. Using the same neutral tone just above the natural creases in her eyes also worked beautifully as a contour. A perfect highlight, brushed-up brows, and rosy-nude lips completes the look.
