Hello again,
Eyes are one of the best features that any girl can use to enhance her flawless beauty and an eyeliner is the most basic yet an essential part of your everyday makeup and will always find place in a girl’s vanity arsenal.
We girls love applying eyeliner to highlight our eyes. However, getting the perfect straight line is not always so easy and it may take a good deal of patience and practice to make it perfect. With these tips and tricks mentioned below, you will be able to apply any eyeliner like a pro.
Types Of Eyeliners:
1. Pencil Eyeliner: These eyeliners come as a pencil and can be easily applied on your upper and lower lash line. Pencil eyeliners are perfect for beginners.
2. Liquid Eyeliner: Liquid eyeliners come in a case with an application brush that helps to make a smooth line on your lids. These liners are perfect for trying out the Cat Eye look.
3. Gel Liner: This type of liner comes in a container with a gel based formula for quick and easy drying. You have to apply it with a liner brush, based on the type of style you are trying.
Selecting the Correct Liner:
If you are a beginner, you may get overwhelmed with the number of eyeliners that are available. So, while choosing your eyeliner, keep your eye shape in mind. If you are not very confident about applying eyeliner, it is better to start with a pencil liner and then graduate to a liquid or gel liner. Picking a classic black eyeliner is a must, but you can also pick out some cool shades in blue, green, purple or brown, depending on your eye color.
How To Apply Gel Eyeliner: Step by Step Instructions
Step 1: Before applying eyeliner, conceal your under eye dark spots and blemishes with a concealer. Apply the concealer in long strokes instead of just dots so that it can blend easily with your skin.
Step 2: The next step is to steady your hand in a position that will make the application easy. For this, keep your elbows on the table and face the mirror. This position will keep your hand steady while applying eyeliner.
Step 3: To apply the eyeliner, start from the mid-section of your eyelids and make small dashes towards the outer side. Connect all the dashes with a single stroke of eyeliner. Then apply the eyeliner on the inner part of your eyelids and connect it to the mid-section. Finally go over the full line in one stroke to give it perfect definition.
Step 4: Allow the eyeliner to dry completely before opening your eyes so that it does not smudge on to the crease of your eyes. Complete the look by applying two coats of mascara to give your lashes some volume.
Eyeliner Tips & Post Application Rules:
* After applying eyeliner, apply a little concealer on a liner brush and lightly apply it around the eyeliner to soothe out the edges.
* Always apply mascara after you line your eyes with eyeliner as it amps up your look completely.
* In case your eyeliner smudges while applying it, dab some tissue paper with water and lightly rub off the smudged liner. Apply some concealer in case there are some dark spots.
* At the end of the day, remove your eye makeup with the help of some eye makeup remover and cotton. This helps the skin rejuvenate and prevents oily skin from forming around the eye area.
