How to

Step 01: Moisturise and prime your lids

Step 02: Stick a scotch tape on the crease of your upper lid and outer corner of your eye so you can get a neat cat-eye shape

Step 03: Take a tawny, yellow shade for the base colour and pack it on the entire lid. Then apply a brown eyeshadow and blend

Step 04: Next, take a dark brown or black eyeshadow and create abstract patterns similar to the blotches on a tortoiseshell and blur the edges

Step 05: Remove the scotch tape and voila! Line your eyes and wear a couple coats of mascara to finish the look.
