This Instagram Eyeliner Trend Might Be Cooler Than a Cat-Eye
If you’re anything like us, you routinely find yourself spending hours on end Googling the latest beauty secrets from your fave beauty bloggers. You’re most likely already familiar with the spoon cat-eye hack or Kylie Jenner’s mascara trick, but we bet there’s one eyeliner trend you may not recognize. The #spooncutcrease look has been rising to the top on Instagram, and it’s a surprisingly easy way to make your eyes appear bigger and more defined. All you need is a plastic spoon to use as a template to trace your lids with shadow or eyeliner, and voila! You have a perfectly creased line. Excited to try this trick at home? Get inspired by these Instababes, and see how they cut-crease their lids below.
1. Editorial Crease: While this model is channelling girly vibes in a babydoll dress and cotton-candy fur jacket, her beauty look tells another story. Contrast a decidedly sweet ensemble with statement lids and a vampy lip.
2. Classic Crease: Wear this dramatic beauty look with an equally glam velvet dress and voluminous curls. Complement the linear effect on your lids with a strong brow and look-at-me falsies.
