Cut Crease
A makeup technique designed to create a strong contrast between the eyelid and the crease of the eye, which is done by first applying a crease color, and then applying a different color to the eyelid in a strong eyelid shape without blending it in.
This look adds a lot of drama to the eye, and was actually popularized within the drag community before it became mainstream!
Pro Tip
When doing a cut crease, you can actually use concealer to create the 'cut crease' shape to the eyelid, and then top it with eyeshadow so you get a really clean, bold impact.
