Make a bold statement with your eyes, with inspo from the 60s’ fashion iconIllustrations Simran Tapadia

At the age of 16, in the swinging 60s, Twiggy Lawson became one of the first international supermodels. Her striking eye makeup set trends then and is all the rage again. Here’s how to flaunt this flirty look.

Apply two coats of mascara. For exaggerated lashes, stick on falsies using eyelash glue and tweezers. (Tip: Layer on mascara if you don’t want to use false eyelashes.)

Brush on a light coat of mascara to blend the false and real lashes.

Now stick 2-4 individual lashes clumped together on your lower lashes. Place these lashes under your real lashes, starting at the outer edge. (Tip: Hate falsies? Paint the bottom lashes on the lash line, like Twiggy did!)

Use off-white eyeshadow. For colour, use blue or green instead. Apply on eyelids and inner corner of your eyes.

Line your natural eyelid crease with grey/black eyeshadow using an eyeliner brush. Smudge the line a bit.

Line eyes with gel liner. Instead of an upward wing, bring it down to give your eyes the droopy 60s’ look.
