Eyeliner is one of the first applications that come to mind in eye makeup.

Used to emphasize the eyes, eyeliner is an eye makeup material applied along the upper lash line with a variety of applications in 3 different forms such as liquid, pencil and gel.

 

• But what is Eyeliner?

Eyeliner is a versatile cosmetic product that emphasizes and highlights the eyes and is applied along the upper lash line.

It defines one's facial expression and adds a striking look depending on how it is applied.

An eyeliner can be found in different forms such as liquid, pencil and gel.

Mascara, eye shadow and eyeliner are the trinity of success for impressive looks. This combination of three is the key to fully express your eye makeup and achieve a stunning look.

  

• How to Apply Eyeliner?

Eyeliner can be applied by starting from the corner of the eye and continuing along the upper lash line until the end of the lash.

If you want to add a tail to the eyeliner, you should make a notch from the end of the lash to the end of the eyebrow and connect this outer end with the inner end at the corner of the eye.

The triangular space between the end of the notch and the connected line can be filled with eyeliner.

Thus, you will have a black tailed eyeliner. It determines the person's facial expression and adds strikingness to the look depending on the way it is applied.

Especially for those who use it for the first time, applying eyeliner in one move can be challenging. Instead, you can mark the starting and ending points with eyeliner and then go over them with gel or liquid eyeliner.

Depending on the preference in use, people can apply eyeliner not only to the upper eyelash line but also to the lower eyelash line, or they can draw a line on the eyelid parallel to the drawn eyeliner. This difference in application depends entirely on the person's preference, the model they want to make, and their taste.

Beauty Tip: Eyeliners in brown tones will add naturalness to your skin tone .

 

• How to Apply Liquid Eyeliner?

The liquid eyeliner makeup product, which is thin-tipped and in pencil form, makes it easier for beginners to draw eyeliner.

The eyeliner application, which starts from the tail section, can be started with a thin line and then thickened according to preference.

Applying it thickly in the first application increases the rate of making mistakes.

The eyeliner application is completed by drawing a line from the tear ducts to the tail tip with a single movement and connecting it, holding the makeup brush as close as possible to the base of your eyelashes.

 

• How to Apply Pencil Eyeliner?

With pencil eyeliner application, you can first create an eyeliner sketch.

Once the desired shape is achieved with the eyeliner, you can go over it with liquid eyeliner.

In this way, the eyeliner will be more intense.

A smoky look can also be achieved with pencil eyeliner, preferrably with Smoky Effect Eye Pencil.

Start drawing from the corner of the eye and move outwards. You should make sure that you draw a straight line. To do this, you should apply it without taking your hand away or waiting and either start from the corner of the eye and continue to the tail, that is, to the outside, until the line integrity is complete, or complete the tail first and draw from there towards the corner of the eye.

 

• How to Apply Gel Eyeliner?

Gel eyeliner is applied with its own application brush and generally results in a matte result.

This brush has hair that are angled from the short surface to the long surface.

It has a small and solid structure. Eyeliner is drawn from the upper lash line to the outside.

From where the lashes end, a slight indentation is made with the brush upwards and eyeliner is drawn from the inner eyeliner line to this part.

 

• Things to Consider When Applying Eyeliner

Eyeliner, an indispensable part of eye makeup, can present some difficulties in its application.

An excessive and dense application can easily smudge on the eyelid.

This can create an unwanted scattering effect. Moreover, it is not easy to correct mistakes made while applying eyeliner.

Therefore, it is important to be careful and attentive when using eyeliner.

For a controlled application, it is necessary to make sure that the hand is steady and the application is done with light touches.

Remember: There may be a difference between the eyeliner applied to one eye and the eyeliner applied to the other eye. If one is applied thickly and the other is applied thinly, the thin eyeliner can be thickened.

Using liquid eyeliner while completing your eye makeup will allow you to have a more permanent eye makeup. The eye is closed while using eyeliner. However, if the application can be done with the eye open, the eyeliner will be applied more appropriately according to the shape of the eyelid.

 

• How to Apply Eyeliner According to Eye Types

Eye structure varies from person to person.

Taking your eye type into consideration when applying eyeliner is the key to adding a more special and harmonious touch to your makeup.

People with drooping eyelids should apply eyeliner in a thin line instead of thick eyeliner.

People with round eyes should apply eyeliner in a thin line towards the end to make their eyes look slanted and then turn it into a thick form.

It would be more appropriate for people with almond-shaped eyes to apply eyeliner without a tail starting from the inner part of the eye and continuing towards the outer part.

It would be more appropriate for people with small eyes to apply half eyeliner that is concentrated towards the outside to make their eyes look bigger.

For people with large eyes, eyeliner is an application that makes the eyes look smaller, so there will be no fault if they apply the eyeliner in the form they want.

 

• Things to Consider for Eyeliner to Be Straight

Although applying eyeliner in a straight line is difficult, eyeliner application can be made easier with certain formulas.

One of these is to determine the starting and ending points of the eyeliner in advance and then pass over it with eyeliner.

Closing your eyes and stretching the area with one hand can make it easier for you to apply eyeliner. This will create a flat surface by stretching your eyelid and making it easier to apply eyeliner.

There are also some applicators for applying eyeliner. However, if you do not have these, you can also apply eyeliner with the help of a spoon. To make the lower part of the tail neat, you can place the flat, hand-held part of the spoon on your skin starting from the lower lash line and apply eyeliner. Also, for the upper part of the tail, you can apply eyeliner by placing the deep part of the spoon on the eyelid.

You can use hard and flat objects to support you when applying eyeliner. One of these can be your makeup products. You can apply eyeliner with a brush. You can align the brush from the outer corner of the eye to the end line of the eyebrow and pass over this line with the eyeliner. To complete the tail, you can align and place the brush at the top and apply the eyeliner towards the eyelid.

Another suggestion is to apply eyeliner with tape. You can use masking tapes. In the same way, you can stick the tape from the lower lash line to the end of the eyebrow and underline the tail. For the top of the tail, a second tape is passed along the upper lash line. Thus, a triangular space will be created in between. This is exactly the tail part. You can fill the space with eyeliner and gently remove the tapes from the skin.
