How to transform a look from day to night/PERFECT cat eye

Top: Doing errands with my mum
Bottom: Going to a concert
If you want to know what I used for both, read on!
The eyes are the same for both pictures here...
(I primarily used the Urban Decay BOS 2)
First, I swept on Scandal on the inner 1/3 of the eye
then, I used Sphinx on the outer 1/3. To blend
the two I used 'Scratch' deluxe e/s on the middle. 
For the crease I used just a touch of 'Perversion'.
Then the hard part! Using MAC Bootblack
Liquid Liner, I carefully drew a thin line
along the upper lashline-trying to go as close to
the eye as I could. Then I thickened the line
as it neared the outer corners. The important part
is to not do the line all the way to the edge!
Stop just a little before, so the "flick" would be in
line with the curve of your lower lid. Once you
have the "flick" (it should be pointed
towards your outer eyebrow) connect the flick to the
outer edge of the lower eye lid. :) And you're
pretty much done!
How the flick should look :)
The lips were the only main difference.
For the day look I used MAC's 'Dervish'
lip liner, then the Viva Glam V lip stick
and on top I used just a little clear lip gloss.
For the night look (close up below)
I used MAC's Pro Longwear Lipstain
Marker in 'Purposefully Red' then I used
C.O. Bigelow's Winter Cordials l/g in
'Vanilla Eggnog'-which is basically
a sparkly clear gloss-on top.
