Twiggy is one of my favorite style icons from the 1960s. I've tried for years to style my eyeliner like hers. It's so much fun! Here are a few tips....
Steps 1-2: Using liquid eyeliner, line the top of your eyelid with a thick line. Add a little "cat eye" stroke on each outer edge, if you like! Step 3: After lining the top of your eye, your makeup should look something like this. It may take several coats of liquid eyeliner to get the look you want. I use more or less eyeliner depending on my mood. Step 4: Draw small lines under your lower eyelid to create this cute mod effect! You can draw the lines just in the outer corners or all the way across your eyelid for a more bold look. Step 5: Add mascara! There you go. It's easy as pie and so cute!
Thank you, Sarah, for modeling this pretty look!
Have fun trying something new with your makeup. XO, elsie
This is the cutest post and I can't wait to try it out! :)

Love this look, Elsie! Bold eyeliner is so fun. I actually did an Adele-inspired look with a large wing on my blog today. It made me feel a little fancy. :)

Wow! That's impressive. I love the top liner. It's so bold and it looks fantastic and clean. Yay @ashleyTIA I loved your Adele post today.

I love this look so much! Though I'm quite sure to fully achieve Twiggy's look, you'd have to line the crease of your eyelid... at least that's what I read on another post about these "doe eyes".

Oh wow, just what I needed! Lately I've been trying new eye make-up styles and this one has been hard on mee:-) Good to have a step by step guide. And maybe it's not such a miracle that it didn't work the first time around- since you've been practising for so long too:-)

While this is a gorgeous eyeliner job, Twiggy also has the crease of her lids lined. That is what makes them so dramatic. Loved the post!

the lower lash line is what makes it twiggy. I never would have thought of that.. Neat!
