Pen tool stroke that tapers

[Mr Lucky]

Is it possible to make a simple line that is wider/thicker at one end and thin at the other.? 

Basically I am trying to draw some cats whiskers, so I was thinking a single line with a tapering stroke (from about 5 pixels down to 1), I could then curve it to look like a whisker.  I have managed something that sort of works by making a triangle with a fill, converting to curves and then adding two nodes roughly in the middle to curve it, but that is very fiddly. It would be a lot easier with a single tapering line.

Can anyone please help - thank you

Then having done that, ideally I need to make the thick end slightly blurry to blend into the face.

BTW - where’s that setting on AP photo on iPad? Can’t find it...
