Here are the 10 foolproof tricks that can help you apply eyeliner like a pro.
10 Simplify drawing a straight line by lining your eyes with dots first, and then connecting them. Make sure your dots aren’t too big.
9. For a really natural look, tightline your liner by applying it in between the lashes instead of across the top of the lash line. The easiest way to do this is to fill in your top lashes from the underside.
8. If getting a perfect line is too challenging, draw a rough line first, and then sharpen it with a cotton swab and petroleum jelly. Sometimes erasing mistakes is easier than trying to nail it the first time.
7. Make your own gel liner by warming the tip of a kohl liner with a lighter. Hold the tip of the liner right above the flame for a few seconds, and then test the pencil on the back of your hand before lining your eyes.
6. Use white eyeliner as a brow highlighter for an instant eye lift. Line below and above your eyebrows with a thick white liner, and smudge it out with a sponge brush to define your brows.
5. If you have monolids, use a gel or liquid liner and draw a thick arch to create the perfect line. If your eyelids hide your eyeliner, try drawing an arched line above your lash line a little thicker than you think.
4. Create your own custom eyeliner with a wet liner brush and eyeshadow. The wet brush will darken the pigments a bit and create a sharp look like a liner.
3. Make a less pigmented eyeshadow more vibrant by covering your eyelid with a white eyeliner first. This will help cancel out the color of your skin, creating an even base for the shadow and making the color pop.
2. Use a pencil liner as a guide for tricky liquid liners. Line your eyes first with a pencil liner, and then trace over it with liquid.
1. Make your eye makeup last longer by setting your eyeliner with a matching eye shadow. Line your eyes with a pencil liner…..then lightly dust eye shadow in the same shade on top to hold the liner in place.
Practice these foolproof eyeliner tricks and you’ll get that perfect look all the time. You will look like a million dollars every single day, as if you have your very own makeup artist.
