Talk about a fierce cat eye! The Blonds playboy inspired, corset heavy collection needed sexy, theatrical makeup that could pull off ears and a tail. MAC delivered.
Check out the fun, but far from office attire collection at the Stylelist.

That eyeliner is killer! I don’t have the skills to draw it out, but I think I could do something like it with those Dior eyeliner transfers. Love it!
Also, that Flamingo lipstick? I think I need it! Is it spring yet?
Usually I’m not a fan of the overly exaggerated eyeliner but I really love this look!
I agree! The subtle lips really speak to me. The whole look is Va Va Voom!
Those sure are amazing eyes! And surprisingly I really like the lipstick as well.
I’m all over the Flamingo Lipstick with the Stripdown Lip Pencil. Can’t wait! Super pretty!! It’s amazin what you can do with eyelinner, WOW!
The eyeliner is beautiful. It definitely makes me think of I Dream of Jeanie.
