Recreating a basic siren look is not that difficult at all! Grab your favorite eyeshadow palette, you can have Urban Decay Mini Naked Eye Shadow Palette or Kevyn Aucoin The Contour Eyeshadow Palette Collection. Apply the lighter shade all over the eye and pick a darker shade from the palette and starting from the eye’s outer corner aim it towards your lash line. To add definition and depth to your look you will need to apply a dark black eyeliner along the waterline and finish the look off with a sharp, winged liner pulled outwards. It should be more horizontal than a normal winged liner, think of going towards your temples for a sharp look. For those who have a set of eyes closer to each other, use a touch of nude liner or a champagne eyeshadow to brighten up the area and make your eyes appear wide.
