CHARLOTTE’S TIPS:
On a feline eye: “To create a bronzy effect, apply the cream shadow stick, which will deliver a soft and dewy look, all over the eyelid, taking color up into the eye socket and extending it to elongate the shape of the eye for a cat-like effect. Bring the shadow directly underneath the lash line as well.” – Charlotte Tilbury
