Gabrielle Union's Modern Cat Eye Tops This Week's Beauty Looks

#1 stunner

If you think there's only one way to do cat eye makeup (read: drawn on with jet-black liquid liner), then maybe you should take a few cues from Gabrielle Union on revamping your routine.

While sitting pretty in the front rows at New York Fashion Week, the "Being Mary Jane" actress sported a series of stunning beauty looks. But the one that made us do a double-take was a modern cat eye created by celebrity makeup artist Mario Dedivanovic, aka Kim Kardashian's contouring genius.

Dedivanovic applied highly pigmented charcoal shadow close to Union's lash line and gently winged it out. And we love how he used a bronze eyeshadow on the top of her lids, helping to make her brown eyes appear even larger.

We can't help but be drawn into Union's gorgeous cat eye. The right amount of product combined with the perfect shape created a standout look. Try Kate Von D Shade + Light Eye Contour Palette to recreate this beautiful eye makeup.

The "Body on Me" singer attended the 2015 Harper's Bazaar Icons party wearing bone-straight, platinum-blonde locks, blue-green smokey eye makeup and burgundy lipstick. Even though there is a lot happening with this beauty look, the simple hair and matte makeup finish make it all work. NARS Scarlett Empress is a lovely bordeaux red lip color that looks like the shade Ora's sporting.

Christina Hendricks wowed us at Zac Posen's Spring 2016 fashion show with her emerald green eyeshadow. The bejeweled hue complemented her red hair color and added a peachy glow to her complexion. We recommend MAC Electric Cool Eye Shadow in Emerald Power for a long-lasting finish.

Singer Katy Perry nearly fooled us at the 2015 Harper's Bazaar Icons party with her amber-colored wig. The rich red shade accentuated her bronze eye makeup and olive green dress. To copy Perry's amber hair color at home, you can't go wrong with John Frieda Precision Foam Colour.

We couldn't miss Kate Mara at DKNY Women's Spring 2016. The actress looked breathtakingly beautiful with her pixie hairstyle, lush and long lashes and pale pink lipstick. Lorac Pro Plus Fiber Mascara will instantly lengthen and plump your lashes without making them feel clumpy.
