OnlyOnAOL: Bella Hadid slays at Dior fashion show in Paris

Talk about keeping your eyes on the prize.
Dior beauty creative director Peter Philips used graphic eyeliner at the brand's fall-winter show, playing with lines and shapes. Naturally, Bella Hadid, the sultry face of the brand, simply shut down the runway. (Watch our interview with the singular Marion Cotillard, one of the faces of Dior, above).
His inspiration: A desire to focus on "free variation on eyeliner. It was a challenge to customize the look each time in an unusual and audacious way, creating make-up that was made-to-measure, just like haute couture is," said Philips in a statement.
We dare you to try this at home. You need the following products:
Diorshow Pro Liner Waterproof #092 Pro Black
Diorshow Art Pen Intense Professional Felt-Tip Eyeliner #095 Catwalk Black
Diorshow Maximizer 3D Triple Volume Plumping Lash Primer
Diorshow Iconic Overcurl Mascara #090 Over Black
And here's how to do it, straight from Philips:
"The challenge involved taking inspiration from the eye shape of about forty different models to apply black eyeliner on each of them in a unique and hyper-modern way, using the precision of the black Diorshow Pro Liner or Diorshow Art Pen, depending on the eye shape. Whether exaggerated, underlined, framed or ringed, the eyes were the dominant feature. Eyeliner was drawn on in a confirmed and sophisticated graphic style. Only the upper lashes were coated, first with Diorshow Maximizer 3D, then with Diorshow Iconic Overcurl Mascara."
