How to Apply Eyeliner | Applying Eye liner

A heavy outline looks hard and stark, especially if it is black, but as eyes seem to "shrink" or become deep set with age, they do need extra eyeliner definition, especially if the eyelashes have begun to thin out. Automatic liquid eye-liners are less than smooth operators on crepe-paper lids, leaving a wobbly line. For best results use a kohl pencil and smudge-blend close to the lash roots to give depth of tone without harshness. You can achieve a similar, crease-resistant effect by tracing dark powder shadow next to the lash roots with a sponge-tipped applicator.

How to Apply Eyeliner

Trace kohl pencil lightly along the lashline, starting a third of the way from the inner corners on both upper and lower lids and moving outward. Use a fine sponge-tip or a brush to smudge-blend the liner well into the lash roots to achieve a softly defining blur. Liquid eyeliner is the hardest eye definer to apply as it needs the steadiest hand, but it does give the most effective finish. Eyeliner can be put on before or after applying your eyeshadow, but if you apply it before it is easier to cover up any mistakes that you might make.

Step 1.
Positioning  the liner brush at the inner corner of  your eye resting on the top lash, sweep along the upper lash-line to the outer corner, drawing outward. Leave it to dry for about 10 seconds and go back over the line again for a striking effect.

Step 2.
Brush it over  with a little dark eyeshadow using a small, pointed eyeshadow brush for a softer look . But be careful not to be too harsh or you might smudge the eyeliner too much.

Step 3.
It is generally better not to line the lower lashes with liquid eyeliner as this creates a very harsh effect. To define the shape of your eye , run a kohl pencil along the bottom inner rim of the eye

Step 4.
Finally the top lash-line has been smoothly outlined with liquid eyeliner, while black kohl pencil applied along the bottom inner rim of the eye creates a smoky, sultry effect. Add a light coat of mascara for a  perfect finishing touch.
