DRAWING WITH PRECISION: EYELINER!

Posted by beautysmartie101 at 1:03 PM 0 comments

Eyeliner is like magic makeup dust, why? because it creates the illusion of "larger" and lengthy eyes. But if its not used properly, it will damage the eyes and you'll be in one big dark mess. :( Keep reading to learn the basics of eyeliner, and application, you will see a dramatic change in your makeup looks. :)


Textures: If you are a beginner, then i recommend that you use, eyeliners pens and pencils or creams. Because they are solid texture they are more easier to control and apply, if your more advanced then go ahead and use liquid based eyeliners.

HOW TO: APPLICATION
Wear a lid to prevent powdered cuttings.Whether you choose felt, pencil, gel or cream, apply it with a eyeliner brush. To have a clean and precise line, you must be comfortable, be relaxed in front of a mirror and keep your eyes open.To help you, gently pull the outer corner of your eye.Draw your line in small buttons close together, start with the outer corner of the eye to the inner corner.Go back to the line, and connect the little "buttons" you made to create a sharp line.To touch: Use a cotton swab, dip it in make-up remover and erase the mistakes.If you want to emphasize the lower lid of your eye, the easiest way is to use a pencil eye liner and create a bridge along your eyelashes and waterline.


Eyeliner colors:
Black is the most common used eyeliner color, because it creates depth and intensity, and it goes great with any outfit and brown eyes. If you have blue eyes i recommend, blue eyeliner to complement the eyes, and for green eyes blue eyeliner is great as well as green eyeliner.

Who doesn't love false lashes?;)

False eyelashes are great tools to use to brighten your eyes and create the illusion of enlightened eyes. However, i witness young women wearing eyelashes, the wrong way. And by that i mean they don't apply it properly therefore it looks to fake and trashy.:(

Here you will learn how to apply them properly..without it looking too fake.

1. Above all, try your false eyelash before you glue them on. You do this to make sure the length is right for your eyes. Place the shortest part of the eyelashes on your inner corner, and cut the longest side for a good fit.

2. Apply one coat of mascara (any type) as a base to make it easier to apply the false lashes and so that your natural lashes blend with the false ones.
3. Put glue on the false eyelash with an emphasis on outer corners.
4. For proper fit, you must be seated, elbows resting on a table with a mirror in front of you. When you put the false eyelash glue the inside corner first and then the middle and finally the outer corner of the eyelid. Now you're ready!

NOTE: I hear about lashes with rhinestones and other accessories, i dont recommend these types of lashes for everyday looks, because there to exotic. however if thats your style then use the same techniques above and you'll be ready.

Until next time:)
