STEP TWo BUILD the line as you grow in confidence, making it slightly thicker on the outer corner of the eye and taking it out to a point, echoing the eye shape. Then, working from the outer eye inwards, take the line under the eye, keeping close to the lashes, right into the inner corner.

STEP THREE USING a black mascara, build up several layers on the upper and lower lashes. Remember, this look is all about the eyes, so the more mascara the better.
