"Gwen Stefani has the best makeup maybe ever, right? Well, I got the man behind many of her looks, Director of Makeup Artistry for MAC Gregory Arlt to tell me how he gets that lovely dramatic-but-not-retro cat eye look that goes so well with all her bright lip looks. Here&amp;#x27;s what he had to say: &amp;quot;I almost always go with &amp;#x27;classic Gwen&amp;#x27; which is essentially a light lid with a darker crease and a signature cat eye. I generally use a bit of an ivory, gold, or pink shimmer on her huge eyelids and a neutral brown in the crease followed by a black liquid liner I&amp;#x27;ve been doing more laterally. To achieve that, I follow the lash line with the liner, then pull it more straight out as opposed to &amp;#x27;lifting&amp;#x27; it which would make it more of a cat eye. That shape is more &amp;#x27;new wave&amp;#x27; than retro, keeping it modern and cool.&amp;quot; Then loads of mascara and false lashes finished it all off (as per usual). So that&amp;#x27;s the secret, straight from the man behind the look himself. I feel loser to Gwen now. Do you? Photos: Getty Images"^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
