"I wasn&amp;#x27;t quite brave enough to do my own wedding makeup--but had I been, you can be sure I&amp;#x27;d have employed these three really genius and goof-proof eye makeup tricks that we&amp;#x27;ve learned over at Girls in the Beauty Department. 1. Use Scotch tape as a stencil for perfect cat-eye liner. (Click the link for full how-to details.) This genius trick ensures you get the perfect classic eyeliner swoop and that your angles are symmetrical on both sides and worthy of all those close-up portraits you&amp;#x27;ll be taking. 2. Look down into a mirror when applying fake lashes. Put a mirror on a table and gaze into it, rather than staring straight ahead into the bathroom mirror--this way, you can get a much better view of what you&amp;#x27;re doing and more easily maneuver the falsies into your lash line (and they&amp;#x27;ll be less likely to slip before the glue takes). 3. Use a two-brush technique for perfect smoky lids. With one brush, press dark eyeshadow over your eyeliner, then with a clean brush, drag some of that shadow outward and blend over your lid. (Click the link for more details.) This&amp;#x27;ll help keep you from overdoing the shadow and going unintentionally goth on your wedding day.
