SHAPING THE EYE
“Draw this creamy shadow stick directly onto the crease of the eyelid to create a contour. Blend with Utowa’s #7P brush, exaggerating outward for a winged effect.”

TAKE WING
“Draw this intense eyeliner as close to the top lash line as possible, starting at the inner corner and dragging out, then kicking into a wing at the outer corner. Go back to the caviar stick and lightly line underneath the eye, blending softly with the #7P brush and drawing the product outward to join the top wing.”

TWIGGY LASHES
“For that signature ’60s look, use these lashes on the bottom of the eye. Squeeze a little Duo glue onto the back of your hand, then let it sit and get a little sticky. Once it’s ready, use Rubis’ tweezers to pick up the falsies and dab into the glue. Use the smallest size in the pack and start affixing lashes in the center of the lid, working outward, to open up the eyes. Finish the top lashes with two coats of brown Diorshow Mascara.”
