Blunt Bangs

Side-swept bangs will always be in style, but right now it’s all about thick eyebrow-skimming fringe, as seen here on Olivia Wilde and Sandra Bullock.

Brush a dark gray shadow from lids to crease, then define your lash lines with a black pencil. Try Estee Lauder Pure Color EyeShadow Single Amazing Grey ($20 at esteelauder.com).

Whether you want lots of volume on top like Kim, or just a small bump at the crown like Kourtney, blast your roots with a volumizing spray. We like TRESemmé 24 Hour Body Root Boost Spray ($5.49, drugstore.com).

Cat Eyes

Me-wow! Liner extended slightly past the outer lid with a subtle upward wing, as seen here on Olivia Wilde and Sofia Vergara, gives the eye an instant lift.

For a stellar cat-eye look, increase the thickness of the line as you draw outward. A liner with a precise tip: Lancome Artliner ($29, lancome-usa.com).
