I got inspiration for this look from some posts on Pinterest! I wanted something very polished and chic. I love good nighttime, cat eye look!

Here are the tutorial vids for the look! Such a cute look for a night out!
We ended up with a kind of satin base that gives this kind of “glow from within” look. And we did a bold, dramatic cat eye!

I went with a lip combo that leans a little more brown than pink. And then I just added a sheer gloss on top!

Eyes
We ended up with light brows and a heavy eye. I really wanted the eyes to be the center of focus.
I don’t exactly remember what product I used to fill in my brows, but this is a possibility! Don’t be afraid of liquid brow pens! They can be good for creating hair-like strokes on the brows.
Lift & Snatch! Brow Tint Pen
The color I used is “Toasted Almond.” It’s a brightening shade for me. I used it to carve out underneath my brows to give them more of a shape.
The color I used is “Feline.” It’s a dark, deep black eyeliner. I love using it to do a tight line and smokey looks. It’s not smudge proof so you can play around more with smokey looks. I concentrated the product on the inner and outer corners of my ...
Eye Kohl | Matte Eye Pencil
So I’ll be honest, I don’t LOVE all the colors in this palette, but I think it’s a pretty good beginner palette. I used the deep purple to smoke out my winged liner.
Sugar Mini Eyeshadow Palette
I’ve been living in this mascara! It’s super dark and makes my lashes look long and defined. I prefer it to the other MAC Mascaras.

Face
For our base, we ended up with something a little bit satin and it kind of gives a “glow from within look.” It still has a natural look to it and some natural texture is showing through. The contour products are more front facing than the foundation.
The color I used is “Toasted Almond.” It’s one of my favorite shades for brightening and contouring. The formula blends out easily and leaves a beautiful luminous base for setting with powder.
This foundation gives a natural matte finish so it does show a bit of texture, but the finish is camera ready! To combat this, I’d suggest using a glowy primer or mixing it with one or a glow booster. My shade is “NC 50.”
Studio Fix Fluid SPF 15 Foundation | 67 Soft Matte Shades
The shade of the palette I have is “Deep.” I used one of the contour shades and I love how nicely it blends out! I’ve been doing contour without foundation and it looks great!
Made By Mitchell Curve Case - Deep at BEAUTY BAY
The color I used is “Never too Much.” It’s a bright red. I only used a little bit because I didn’t want the blush to be a focus of this look. If anything, it warmed up my skin and looked more like bronzer.
Powder Blush Stick
I used this spray after I applied my brightening concealer. Spraying in between steps can help increase the longevity of a makeup look and can help melt the layers together.
All Nighter Extra Glow Dewy Setting Spray
I used the shade, “Truffle.” I just used it to sharpen up the contour underneath my cheeks. This concealer sticks and lasts all day.
Radiant Creamy Concealer
The color that I used is “Ube Birthday Cake.” It’s a lilac purple that takes on a pinkish tint on my skin. I feel like it does the perfect amount of brightening and it sets my undereyes beautifully!
Easy Bake Powder - Ube Ubsession
The color that I used is “5N Neutral.” This powder gives a beautiful matte finish and it helps my makeup last all day. It has a truly stunning, blurring finish. And it feels very lightweight on the skin.
Dior Forever Natural Velvet: 24h Wear Compact Foundation
This is my go-to mattifying setting spray! It blurs and sets my makeup all day! I can definitely say it is sweat resistant too.

Lips
For our lippie, we went with more of a tan nude lip. I feel like this gives more of a black cat vibe than a pinky pink lip.
The color that I used is “Chestnut.” It’s a deep brown shade. MAC’s lip liners blend easier and are long-lasting!
MAC Lip Pencil
The shade that I used is “Burnt spice.” It’s a peachy shade with a touch of tan. The retro mattes are super matte and very pigmented!
