One day I made a decision to pair dark blue liner with dark blue claws, as well as the very first thing I believed when I completed was, “Why haven’t I done this before?”
Seriously, though, why utilize a blue eyeshadow as a liner instead of an actual blue liner?
Ciao, NARS Giove!
Using a dark blue eyeshadow as a liner, instead of a dark blue pencil, gel or liquid eyeliner, produces a a lot more diffused edge, so the general impact looks softer.
I’ve done it with great deals of different liner styles, too, like spicy feline eye looks, as well as even soft laundries of color, where the liner is smudged along my upper as well as lower lash lines.
Sometimes I’m just in the mood for a blurred edge (and the accompanying less interest to detail).
Just for fun: add dark blue nails

I like seeing the flash of dark blue on my fingers whenever I tuck my bangs behind my ears or push my (nerdy Gamma Ray computer glasses) up.
And it believe it kind of reinforces the blue liner, too. You know, a lot more blue.
I likewise like exactly how the softer liner contrasts with the harder edge of the dark blue nails, so you likewise have that contrasty thing going.
I phone call this liner look the Tabby T-1000 (after the liquid metal Terminator from T2)

For this feline liner look, I used metallic dark blue NARS Dual-Intensity Eyeshadow in Giove ($29) with an angled brush.
First, I used it dry to produce the shape of the feline eye as well as get that softer edge. then I wet the clean head, dipped it back into the pan, as well as used the shadow on my lash line close to the lashes, to kind of intensify the metallic surface as well as crete a subtle gradient.

They’re offered now at NARS counters as well as likewise online.
For this look, I went with metallic, however I’d like to see somebody opt for a matte. It truly depends upon what impact you’re aiming for.
For something fun as well as lively, I like metallics on my lash lines, however I bet a deep dark blue matte would look incredibly cool, as well — as well as a lot more “serious.”
