The divergent liner consists of a classic cat-eye on top with a half, unconnected line extending from the lower lash line. The blank space between the two lines gives this style more of a futuristic accent than the retro ’70 feel the classic feline flick is associated with. The under-eye line or the modern, reinterpreted version of the reverse cat-eye line effect is clean, drawn precisely and not smoked out to avoid the just-rolled-out-of-bed effect some people weren’t so fond of.
To have an harmonious dialogue with Raf Simons’ unique aesthetic sense from the last Cruise 2015 Fashion Show, Peter Philips – the new creative and image director for Dior beauty used brand’s newest makeup products, the forthcoming Dior It-Line Eye-Liner in It-Black, to be released in June, carefully displaying the liquid formula straight across the upper lash line and running a parallel band along the bottom lashes, dragging it out just past the outer corners of the eyes to exaggerate their size.
What do you think about this new makeup proposal for the upcoming Summer? Will you try it?
See you soon, beautiful!
xx, Annie

I’m not a big fan of this, I think it looks pretty harsh. But I can see how it would stand out on the runway. Maybe not so great for everyday.

I like the idea but I think it’s tricky to execute. As it’s quite bold I think it would look best with a minimal lip, dare I say something glossy – which I’m not normally a fan of, hehe 🙂

Definitely a nude lip would be my choice too! That is if I ever step out of my comfort zone and actually do this eye… 🙂 xx

I have been wearing liner this way since long but, normally I reserve this style for parties only because it’s quite bold and dramatic! Nevertheless, if one feels confident in it, one can carry it anywhere 🙂
