Importance of Eyeliner

Eyeliner is a must for people with small eyes. With eyeliner, even the smallest eyes can appear large. Applying eyeliner requires some technique though. The line drawn should not be too dark and harsh.

There are various types of eyeliner in the stores nowadays. The 3 types are namely liquid eyeliner, pencil eyeliner and gel type eyeliner.

All three types of eyeliners work in the same way just that the liquid and gel type is less hassle-free in the sense that you need not sharpen your eyeliner. Some people will prefer to have the pencil type for better grip as they find it easier to draw their lines as though drawing on paper.

First, choose the type of eyeliner you wish to work on. Normally I recommend the liquid eyeliner as the fine tip makes it easier for beginners to draw the eye line.

Hold the skin of your upper lid taut. Apply the liquid eyeliner starting from the inside corner of the eye to outward. Try to apply a light stroke.

If you are a beginner on using eyeliner, you may face difficulties in drawing a nice line through. In that case, you may wish to split your line into two sections. Draw from the inner corner of the eye to the middle and then finish off from the middle to the end.

Remember to keep your line as near to the lash line as possible to create a natural look!

And if you should fail during your first attempt, do not discourage. As the saying goes, practice makes perfect, after a few trials, you will be as good as a pro.
