Eyeliners enhance the beauty of the
eye, little wonder most ladies would
not be caught dead without them.
Using the right eye makeup can
guarantee that “heads will turn” when
you enter the room. However, you
best achieve this by giving more
attention to your eye liner, then
focusing more on your eye shadow.
Eyeliner, correctly applied, can make
a huge difference in your makeup
routine. Not only will it emphasize
the shape of your eyes, but it will also
accentuate your lashes in ways that
mascara alone can’t do. In fact eye
liner, when correctly applied, can
help turn your makeup routine from
sexy, to classy, and all the way, to
bold.
As important as eye liner is for
women, not all of them apply it
correctly be it pencil eyeliner or
liquid eye liner.
Here are the top mistakes women
make when applying eyeliner: Using
Either Too Little or Too Much Eye
Liner
One of the basics on how to apply eye
liner is using the right amount of
product. By using too little, you won’t
be able to get the best effect from
your eye liner. On the other hand, too
much eye liner will overpower the
rest of your eye makeup, and waste
your efforts in choosing the right eye
shadow and applying your mascara
expertly.
Using Greasy Pencils on Your Lower
Lashes
Applying eye liner may seem difficult
at times. However, you shouldn’t use
a slick pencil just to make your work
easy, as you will be cleaning up
smeared and smudged eye liner later.
Lining the Inside Rim of Your Lids
and the Area Between The Lashes
You may have been instructed to
make sure that your lids’ inner rim,
and the area between your lashes,
receive a generous amount however
too much not only looks unattractive,
but it can affect the cornea in the
long run.
Lining Only Your Bottom Lash Line
Some guides recommend using this
product only on the bottom lash line.
However, if you listen to those, you
will end up adding years to your age.
Lining your bottom lash line alone
will make your eyes seem droopy and
heavy, therefore making your face
appear older.
Applying Mascara Before Eye Liner
Some women believe that applying
mascara first will allow them to assess
how much eye liner they would use.
However this is wrong, applying
mascara after your eye liner allows
you to compensate for any lack of
depth or definition you may have
caused by applying your eyeliner
wrong.
