Get the Look: Keira Knightley’s Perfectly Executed Cat Eye

“I started with Chanel Perfection Lumière Velvet Smooth-Effect Makeup Broad Spectrum SPF 15 in 30 Beige.”

“Once the base was set, I used Chanel Les Beiges Healthy Glow Sheer Colour in No. 50 to contour her face. I finished with a dusting of Chanel Limited Edition Les Beiges Healthy Glow Multi-Colour in No. 01.”

“I used Chanel Powder Blush in Vivacite on the apples of her cheeks.”

“To begin the cat-eye, I started with a well sharpened Chanel Stylo Yeux Waterproof Long-Lasting Eyeliner in Noir Intense. This cat-eye is thinner towards the nose and thicker as you pencil outward. On the outer eye, I drew a wedge, slowly building it up to create the shape on the outside corner of the eyes.”

“I used Chanel Gentle Biphase Eye Makeup Remover on a cotton swab to clean up the edges of the eyeliner when needed. Once I was happy with the shape, I blended the edges on the inner part of the wedge towards the center of the eye to create a softness.”

“Using Chanel Quadra Eyeshadow in Tissé Camelia, I set the liner with the dark burgundy-espresso toned shadow. Using a flat fluffy brush, I blended the inner edge of the wedge with the medium shimmery smoky taupe tone from the Quad, fading it into the pearly camellia tone on the lid. I then used the soft shimmery taupe grey shadow from the Quad in the contour of the crease as well as on the lower lash line to round out the eyes. I finished by blending and softening the edges of this graphic look to keep the eyes pretty and graded.”

“First, I curled the lashes and applied several strokes of Chanel Inimitable Intense Mascara in Noir. To get a thicker look, you can use tweezers to bunch three or four lashes together. To give a more dramatic look, add a few individual knot-free black medium lashes.”

“For the brows, I used Chanel Crayon Sourcils Sculpting Eyebrow Pencil in Brun Naturel.”

“On the lips I used Chanel Rouge Allure Velvet Luminous Matte Lip Colour in Diva.”
