Step 1: Start by prepping your eyelids with primer or concealer to even them out before applying eyeshadow.

Step 2: Pick a grey eyeshadow and apply it evenly on your eyelids and lower lash line.

Step 3: Now, swipe a dark kohl eyeliner liner like the Lakmé Absolute Kohl Ultimate along the lower eyelash line. Make sure to elongate it around the inner corner while winging it out on the outer corner to get that cat-like effect.

Step 4: Lastly, use your detailed eye brush to smudge out the edges of the kohl liner. You can also use a little black eyeshadow around the edges to add a smokey effect to your eyes, and that’s it; your reverse cat-eyes are done.
